Racist Statements

Racist Statements

A new book by Tanja Kambouri in Germany, entitled “Deutschland im Blaulicht. Notruf einer Polizistin” [Germany in blue light. Emergency calls of a policewoman], contains statements that are simply not acceptable. The book states for example that “Sinti und Roma sind meist Großfamilien mit fehlender Bereitschaft, sich zu integrieren” [Most Sinti and Roma are large families that show no readiness to integrate].

SIMPLY NOT ACCEPTABLE … This shows a clear lack of understanding of the Rroma minority and clear racist prejudices.

Kosovo Rroma: Two families must return

A German court in Göttingen decided that two families of Rroma from the Kosovo must return as they did not integrate in Germany.

PROTEST!

Rroma and Homlessness

An article that highlights the fact that Rroma are not migrants per se but are increasingly being forced to be… This is a phenomenon that was historically seen in Europe, with the Sinti becoming “nomad” simply because they were not allowed to settle anywhere in Germany.

SHAME!
