450 Romani evicted from legal settlement in Rome

chirikli:

Oh, look, what a surprise.
Italy is clearing out 450 Roma out of an official (meaning legal) camp, a few weeks after Silvani announced the census intended to count all Roma and deport any Roma immigrants.

These people were legally allowed to live there in dwellings provided by the municipality, but now they are being evicted and many families are being separated.

It is hard to know what we can do about this, especially if we don’t live in the countries where antiRomani sentiment is the worst.

If anyone can provide info on any reputable Italian organizations that are fighting this, please let me know.
