First, a TV “reportage” omen “Gypsy Wedding”… With all stereotypes, and the implied generalisation on all Roma. Then a recent book, translated from the Italian on Roma living on the outskirts of Florence, Italy. Then the more usual: A massive Roma camp in Bordeaux, with more than 2000 people, and a camp near Aix en Provence that will be closed soon.

Italy: What ????

juin 3, 2023 Published by: Roma Foundation

An article in the Italian press. It starts well, with the fact that Roma came to Italy as early as 1422, if not even earlier. But then it dives into the worst stereotypes: Machismo among men, girls being controlled by their brothers and fathers, little education, etc.

Once again, good intentions, little knowledge and understanding, and perpetuation of stereotypes.

mai 24, 2023 Published by: Roma Foundation

A documentary film, entitled “Leaving” and directed by Mira Erdevički, presents a picture of the Roma that will probably surprise many viewers in Slovakia. The three main protagonists speak perfect English, are appreciated in their professions, and especially accepted by their surroundings, to which they repay by actively helping the community. But there is one catch. Although they come from Slovakia or the Czech Republic, they had to go to Britain to get such an opportunity.
