Roma: The True Europeans …

Published by:

In the context of the European Cultural Heritage Year 2018, The European Roma Institute for Art and Culture organised an exhibition showcasing the Roma contribution to European Culture.
Pity that one always only speaks of 600 years … As if the Balkan and the Byzantine Empire have never been part of Europe.

Italy: A Mayor Destroys a Sinti House

Published by:

In Southern Tyrol, a local mayor ordered and carried through the destruction of an “illegal” Sinti house. Salvini applauded …
We suggest that this mayor orders the destruction of all illegal buildings. That would clear a lot of space in Italy.

Ukraine: One Dead

Published by:

One Rom was killed and at least one child was injured during an attack Saturday night on a Roma camp in L’viv in Western Ukraine. At least this time, the police seems to have detained 7 people. Let’s see if they remain in custody.
A long list of articles on the topic.

French Chronicle …

Published by:

The usual litany of expulsions and protests in France this week. In Triel sur Seine, near Paris, the last camp was closed. In le Vesinet, near Paris, the old Somalian Embassy is being squatted by Roma. In Périgny and in Bussy Saint Georges, both near Paris, as well as in La Riche, in Western France and in Nice, in the South camps were closed. In Grenoble, a manifestation for the Roma was held. Finally, as usual, Breizh Info – a definitively xenophobic website is showcasing the case of two Roma burglars in Western France.

French View on Italy

Published by:

Many articles in the French press this week on the Italian Interior Minister’s initiative to do a census of the Roma in the country.
The French press is much more unanimous and qualifies this as fascism.
They also miss the point on how on Earth you can do a census on Roma …

Italy, Salvini, and Roma

Published by:

Note that no one is actually asking the question on HOW do you do a census on Roma??? How do you know who is and who is not? Seems soooo natural to all that this is obvious. Is it really?

He should be reminded that this is not 1930, and we’d be interested to know how he will do this… Genetics? Social approach? Or other method?
