Conference – Symposium - Forum
20 April 2021 | online, Germany
When looking at the Roma population, discrimination is deeply-rooted, and a common reality all over Europe. Antigypsyism is a widespread reality in Europe, and it is often combined with historical intolerance against the Roma, poverty, marginalisation, exclusion, stigma or violence. While the fact of being Roma seems to be the most visible ground for discrimination, other grounds for example, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity or migrant status – can also play a role, so that the person is discriminated against on multiple levels
Hate speech and hate crime also affect the Roma population disproportionately and several political parties across Europe use the Roma population as scapegoats for social and economic problems in their countries. This widespread rhetoric of hate makes the Roma even more vulnerable and marginalised. The recent resurgence of extremism targeting Roma demonstrates that antigypsyism continues to be a driving force of political populism. In addition, generally negative portrayal of Roma in mainstream media and online reinforces prejudices, stereotypes and racist attitudes
The program of the event is consisted by:
1. Panel discussion with profesors, researcher, civil cociety representatives and activists
2. Screening the Short Movie: My Gypsy Road. An inspiring story about the winding road of the first Roma actress in Bulgaria, officially graduated from the National Academy for Theatre and Film Arts.
