Mr. Murray, i would assume youve made every effort to another sales and contract between the gypsies and the owner of this town until visits of these houses here working tomorrow. Indeed, ive taken every action. It was possible to take the meanwhile, but the mayor was unable to reverse the sale. The night before the quiet family planned to move in. Other villagers completely destroyed the house with a local pub serving free beer to those responsible. The 100, im sure they didnt intend to commit a crime here. They were just taking a stand for their homeland to defend it from the gypsies, from seattle to run. The villagers were charged with breaching the piece. They received political backing in the Regional Parliament from the conservative christian democrat, politician to bailey, as fonder, if a tired eagle. These is land freedom, blue, or black meal. I was responsible for defending this breach of the peace in the parliament and stood georgia. It was among the hardest charges and the greatest, and most rewarding success ive ever had ever. Not one of my defendants was sentenced to more than 9 months. One valley and all were released on parole. Our citizens all got off more or less without a scratch, that phone get coleman. Even the chief prosecutor said it had been the most he school breach of the p. So hed ever st. Unfreezes pro in fine, a country long and blacks escalation with their house. Now in ruins, the quite family was forced to live in a barn. 9 people sharing a single space under a table just in general. The displacement of anti and rome are from urban areas. After 945 is a good example of Mainstream Society making a bogeyman out of minorities it by creating circumstances that force people to live marginalized lives or an offer d o. And in the end, this reinforces the prejudices. Theyve gone with it. I mentally to stein back and of money advice, grew up in west berlin in the 19th sixties and seventies with they put them on a gulf model of gibson. I grew up with my grandmother. Exactly. And she always tell me the keep it down when i was playing. She was worried wed be thrown out of our home because of people complaining nika, but it was in the middle of the day, or why the whole, well young sense of to say about from the me i had, she was scared that some one from Mainstream Society would come and tell us to be quiet recently and that we werent allowed to do these sorts of things in germany in what have you thought that she was afraid of that because she still had the same fear. She had an outlet from from, from the house i young and against among the tuscan, wont. Will we lived in an ordinary apartment building. We were the only since theyre coming from, but we drew attention because we looked a little different. Nobody my mother and my aunt didnt stand out too much, but my grandmother did almost with her. She was the only dark looking person i was and she wore long skirts. But otherwise, we always tried to blend in and not reveal who we really were often bundled. We were reserved anxious and cautious. You know that he wasnt, we tried not to attract attention to not to do anything wrong with and to always be upstanding in schools. Oh, fun is angeline own design.

As was the terminology after 1945, the physician hammon, i know it became a key adviser to the west german authorities. Essentially, he built on the Research Work conducted by the nazi era racial hygiene and demographic Biology Center. In a book published in 1965, he still referred to cynthia and roma as bastardize, primitive and devious. His claims were based on files compiled by the nazis scientific racism specialists. If i use theme, the scandal, news is thus de awesome for short, outrageously, the so called race scientists were not among those prosecuted after 1945. And its equally scandalous that these files, which have rightfully been termed as documents for planning a genocide act, were not turned over to archive authorities even, but remained in use by the perpetrators of the time. In dawn, they basically picked straight back up from where the allies had forced them to seize their work for a couple of weeks.

We have been muggy briefly when i was desperate to perform on stage with my uncle, other i admired him so marcia, so i really gave it my old and put in a lot of practice. And in the late 19 seventies romani vice went on to join the famous, hence she vice quintet. This person was, it was, it was a way for me to cruise myself and to express myself with the new on the vic slide. We were on tour in our trailers. People would say things like that, but look, he come the gypsies or hide everything away. But once they realize we would those 20, the famous group who were there for performance. Then they loved us off with tv on radio. The press one, everybody showed up them with that that really drove the difference home to me. Here i was just another gypsy bit. There. I was the star.

Money at the consultancy. Only people were looking for new encounters and meeting new people. They were ready to open up when im there were a number of boots with non since the people to who were engrossed in animating conversations with a shuttle. As i mentioned to me, it was a milestone.
