 Roma Camp in Italy The media have not paid enough attention to the plight of the Roma in Europe. The Roma’s living conditions are miserable, and they suffer from serious discrimination in education and employment, and attacks from racists and neo-Nazis. Because of the conditions they face in Europe, a number of Czech Roma fled to Canada in 2008 and 2009. Their Hungarian cousins quickly began to follow suit. Across these international borders, the Roma's struggle for rights and survival has not been an easy one. |
