Sinti und Roma in Deutschland – Mit keinem Wort erwähnt – #WeRemember #InternationalRomaDay
Bis zu einer halben Million Sinti und Roma ermordeten die Nationalsozialisten bis 1945. Sie wurden systematisch entrechtet, deportiert und ermordet. Doch erst 1982 erkannte Deutschland diesen Völkermord an. Mit dem Ende der NS-Herrschaft habe die Diskriminierung und Kriminalisierung aber nicht geendet, sagt Laubinger. Vielmehr dauere sie bis heute an

Here for #InternationalRomaDay -- Europe's most persecuted people

We stand with you. The struggle continues, and so does the strength.
Opre Rom*nja!
Equality is non-negotiable 
Today is #InternationalRomaDay. We stand together to protect and promote the human rights of Roma.
Diversity is our strength. Let’s end antigypsyism for good.
At yesterday's event, I was thrilled to hear youth representative, Roxana Daniela Petrache, saying:
“#InternationalRomaDay is a celebration of our resistance, our pride in our heritage, our struggle but also the progress we achieved as we claim our seat at more tables and work to leave no one behind”.
April 8 is the International Roma Day. Remember & learn about the fate of some 23,000 Sinti & Roma who were deported to the German Nazi camp #Auschwitz.
Some 21,000 were murdered there.
The great project my fellows Alba and Aldessa are working on: https://romnjafeministlib.com/
At the #InternationalRomaDay celebration, I committed to:
champion the human rights of #Romani peopleinitiate and nurture an ongoing dialogue with Romani people across Europeengage with Romani youthsupport Romani women and girls as agents of change

On #InternationalRomaDay, we celebrate the culture of Europe's Roma community, comprising 10-12 million people across the EU and enlargement region.
Yet, many Roma face high levels of antigypsyism and discrimination. The EU's Roma Strategic Framework 2020-2030 aims to change this by:
halving the poverty gap, reducing housing shortages, integrating Roma children into education.
Together, let's build a fair and equal Europe for all.

Sinti und Roma werden auch in Bayern seit Langem diskriminiert.
Bereits 1899 wurde bei der Polizei München ein Nachrichtendienst nur gegen diese Menschen eingerichtet. 1926 gab es in Bayern das reichweit erste Gesetz, das diese Personen rassisch kategorisierte.
Im NS wurden Sinti und Roma durch die Polizei verfolgt und zu tausenden deportiert und in Auschwitz ermordet.

Happy #InternationalRomaDay #InternationalRomaniDay
The day has been observed since the 1971 first Roma World Congress, at which the Roma flag, anthem, even the word “Roma” were adopted.
It was a truly historic milestone in the history of the Romani nation

It’s #InternationalRomaDay: time to celebrate #RomaEU culture but also draw attention to persistent Roma inequality.
80% of Roma are at risk of poverty.
Schooling, work, life expectancy are all below national averages.

As we mark #InternationalRomaDay, I call on #CouncilOfEurope states to ensure that history of #Roma is never forgotten, but instead valued and taught to society at large. #History #teaching is one of the most important tools contributing to the elimination of prejudice.https://go.coe.int/tUQzh
Today, on #InternationalRomaDay, the ERRC Roma Rights Network was launched. 18 human rights organisations from 15 different countries will promote a human rights based approach to Romani activism.errc.org/press-releases…
