Another one of those articles … It is always from the same places, and gives the impression this is prevalent.
Bad.
A reprint of a Guardian article in the Ukrainian press about Roma palaces in Hășdat.
Both articles pander to sterotypes…
After several articles in the Slovak press, it’s now the turn of Polish papers to speak about Roma graves.
Another article about cemeteries in Slovakia. According to the article, the cemetery ry in Žehra (Spišská Nová Ves district) is dotted with bizarre black tombstones. In Prešov, a larger-than-life-sized marble engraved mobster haunts the ciry, and another extravagance has been added to the grave of Řuma (†53) from a lavish funeral!
The story of a small village, Žehra with a gothic church, confronted now with tombstones with a colorful, life-size likeness in black marble are a novelty at the cemetery in, which local Roma build for their deceased.
An article with all the kitsch one can imagine, about Vlach (Olah) in Slovakia. The ones featured there are not poor, and they show it off.
Bad.
An article about Vlach Roma (called Olah in Slovakia) and their lavish customs for weddings. It is bad on both sides, the press dwelling on stereotypes, and Roma just showing off.
Another article about the Kalderaša houses of Moldavská Soroca. And the generalisations and stereotypes.
A series of photographs of Kalderaša interiors and families taken in Transcarpathian Ukraine.
