SINTI AND ROMA (GYPSY) PERSECUTION

KYLE CLEMENTS

Gypsy music

• The Gypsy music mingled with death in a way like no other. The music interpreted the sadness and fear even more than ever.

LAWS TARGETINGGYPSIES

• For centuries Europeans regarded Gypsies as social out casts.

• A Bavarian law of July 16, 1926 for combating gypsies. The law prohibited gypsies from roaming or camping in bands.

Gypsy stereotypes

• They assumed gypsies of having physic powers.

• Roma was considered as, beggars, swindlers, and thieves, thus the phrase (I've been gypped).

Understanding The Gypsies

• I personally don’t think the Europeans should have been so prejudice towards the gypsies that they should have tried to understand them more and learn about them.

Violence towards Gypsies

• Life for the gypsies was not easy they had to live in very harsh conditions.

• The worst part about life for the gypsies was the stereotypes and the brutal racism.
