Italy and Genocide

A Seminar to remember the Holocaust of the Roma and Sinti will be held on November 22 in Agnone on and aims to shed light on a dark chapter in European history, too often forgotten: the Genocide of the Roma and Sinti. Agnone is the town where from 1941 to 1943 Roma and Sinti were interned in the San Bernardino concentration camp

The program of the seminar includes a series of events ranging from visits to historical sites to conferences held by experts in the field. It will start on November 22 with a visit to the former Convent of San Bernardino, a place of memory that during the Second World War saw the internment of 150 Roma and Sinti. In the afternoon, at the Municipality of Agnone, a conference will be held with the participation of historians, activists and representatives of the Roma and Sinti communities.

The police searched the properties of Kiril Kirov, nicknamed the Japanese. The police presence in the capital’s “Faculty” Roma district was increased since early in the morning.

At this point, official information on the case is scarce. The Ministry of the Interior only confirms that there were searches. The reason for them, however, remains unclear. It’s not about drug crimes.

Slovakia, Roma, and Work

Often called an “Ambitious fool,” Ivan Mak came up with the idea that he would employ Roma, the disabled, the long-term unemployed, single mothers, people without education and difficult to place on the labour market. For 10 years, Ivan has been giving work in the laundry and ironing shop in Horehroní, regardless of the colour of the skin or the disability of the people. It is said that people used to look at him like a UFO.
