The memorial of the Genocide of the Roma in the camp of Lety, Czechia, will be open to the public on Sunday the 12th of May.
What is interesting in this article is that it states that ‘The participation of Czech gendarmes and camp commanders in the genocide of the Roma during the Second World War was denied throughout the forty years of communism. The taboo after the revolution was broken by historian Ctibor Nečas”
As a reminder, less than 40 Roma families from present Day Czechia survived the Holocaust.
