He criticizes the fact that many \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tconservative politicians and citizens in Europe are abusing Rroma as scapegoats. \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tMany people have learned nothing from the events of the past but continue to \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdefame Rroma with impunity. They create an image of work-shy, children-rich \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tRroma families that put a burden on society and are criminals: \u201e<em style=\"font-family: Arial;\">The Roma didn&#8217;t have anything to do with the \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tbanking crisis, but they&#8217;re being blamed for Europe&#8217;s new poverty now. [&#8230;] \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tFrom London to Bratislava you hear the public and politicians saying they don&#8217;t \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\twant the Roma because they&#8217;re a burden on society, on public spending; that \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tthey don&#8217;t want to work, they just have more and more kids and then don&#8217;t even \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tsend them to school; that they&#8217;re lazy thieves. This is what the Fascists said \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tabout them, too. But nowadays, apparently it&#8217;s OK for the mainstream to say \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tthese things as well.\u201c <\/em>In the accompanying video post Lee (2014\/II) speaks \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\twith Slovak passersby: they reproduce the stereotypes of lazy, thieving, \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tasocial Rroma. They totally ignore that it is the massive exclusion, which hinders \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tthe Rroma to successfully integrate. The article also shows how expressions of suspicion \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tmake street beggars automatically to Rroma, although there are also many \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tbeggars who are ethnic Slovaks.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Lee, \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tLaurence (2014) Racism against Roma: mainstream phenomenon?
