		Victims ^Votes:0 Victims Victims The entire gypsy camp at Auschwitz, of 4000 people, was exterminated on August 1, 1944: Set up as a family camp, the Gypsy unit rapidly deteriorated and became extraordinarily filthy and unhygienic even for Auschwitz, a place of starving babies, children and adults. B. insisted that there were "sufficient rations...delivered to the camp for all of them to survive", but that certain adult Gypsies of high standing kept most of the food, thus denying it to all others, including hungry children. The Auschwitz leaders, "shocked" by the situation, came to the conclusion that it was virtually impossible to change it and that the only solution was to "gas the entire camp." According to B., Mengele strongly opposed that decision, made several trips to Berlin to try and get it revers Read More Go to Site

		Gypsies in Auschwitz Part 2 ^Votes:0 Gypsies in Auschwitz Part 2 "Gypsies were officially defined as non-Aryan by the Nuremberg laws of 1935, which also first defined Jews; both groups were forbidden to marry Germans. Gypsies were later labeled as asocials by the 1937 Laws against Crime, regardless of whether they had been charged with any unlawful acts. Two hundred Gypsy men were then selected by quota and incarcerated in Buchenwald concentration camp. By May 1938, SS Reichsfuehrer Himmler established the Central Office for Fighting the Gypsy Menace, which defined the question as `a matter of race,' discriminating pure Gypsies from part Gypsies as Jews were discriminated, and ordering their registration. In 1939, resettlement of Gypsies was put under Eichmann's jurisdiction along with that of the Jews. Gypsies were forbidden Read More Go to Site

		MY FRIENDS, THE GYPSIES ^Votes:0 MY FRIENDS, THE GYPSIES By Lawrence Bohme My town, Montefrio, has a large gypsy community, and over the years the local gitanos have, I believe, come to think of me as their friend. I have always been fascinated by gypsies, and even thought of myself as one at heart, having lived in a footloose way. The history of their travels is, as you will see, even more fantastic than that of the Jews, although being unwritten, much more obscure. We now know that the gypsies originated in the Punjab in northwestern India, fleeing from the region during the clashes between invading Arab and Mongolian warriors, a thousand years ago. On their long odyssey, they travelled through, and settled in, the countries of the Middle East, including Persia and Egypt. Indeed, they became so closely associated with E Read More Go to Site

		Romani.org Home Page ^Votes:0 Romani.org Home Page Opre Roma! Dedicated to the Roma for their recognition as a people and as a nation, and To their struggle for freedom and against persecution and oppression worldwide. "There are four hundred books on the gypsies", says a modern tsiganologue, "but in all not more than ten of which tell us anything new or true about them".(1) Whether this quote (from 1886) was meant to be taken at face value or not, and despite the fact that there are currently thousands of books devoted to the Roma (2), it certainly remains accurate in its essence. Misinformation, misconception and erroneous stereotype about them and their nature is as rampant today as ever. And unfortunately prejudice, persecution, oppression, and ostracization is on the rise!

		Stacia Spragg: The Dream ^Votes:0 The Dream A photographic essay among the Chergari Gypsies in Blagoevgrad, Bulgaria Go directlyto the photos... Story and photos by Stacia Spragg, © 1996 Beyond Predel Street in Blagoevgrad, Bulgaria, the road turns from Communist-laidpavement to a magma of mud, animal waste and run-off sludge. Children half-clothed,run with lame dogs, chickens, and over-worked horses through the streets, amidsttangled piles of rusting iron collected from the city's refuse. Very few Bulgarians,including the police, venture behond this unmarked boundry. It is the tsigan mahala, the ghetto of the Gypsies, a place where social and economic conditions continueto worsen while the country is trying to form a more democratic society after 45years of Communist rule. Far from the image of wandering, mystical Read More Go to Site

		The Integration of Ethnic Minorities: Gypsies, Refugees and Immigrants. ^Votes:0 ]" BORDER=0> The Integration of Ethnic Minorities: Gypsies, Refugees and Immigrants. The Spanish Gypsy community which has its own cultural identity, is the country's largest ethnic minority whose population is calculated to be between 300,000 and 350,000 people. A part of these groups is not integrated socially owing to various historic reasons and the rapid processes of social change that Spanish society has undergone. Their segregation is displayed in their deficient living conditions and in their inequitable access to welfare services, fundamentally housing, education, employment, health care and social services. The Ministry of Social Affairs launched in 1988, the Gypsy Development Programme, dependent on the General Direction of Social Action. This programme, in which different minis Read More Go to Site
