Dear Helge,

Next week at the latest the Foundation's press pack is ready to be distributed. It is a short introduction of who we are, what we do and why and how we do it. Media people on this site might be helpful in speading and adding more material. But this Media group can also support the work of the Anti Defamation League Group. Thanks for joining and also thanks for your kind offer!

POZIVNICA

Dragi Romi, ujedinjeni umetnici iz celog sveta, dramatičari, glumci, redatelji, fotografi, karikaturisti, plesači, muzicari , pevači, novinari i svi romski mediji

Mi koji smo  protiv Romaphobije i diskriminacije i bilo koje druge vrste omalovazavanja romskog coveka ,
Mi koji smo za resavanje  političkih, ekonomskih, socijalnih i društvenih problema  sa kojima se suočavaju Romi, građani Europe.
 POZIVAMO VAS DA SE UKLJUCITE I BUDETE CLANOVI  NECEGA STO SE ZOVE
World Artists Initiative "Khetanes

Izazovi su snažni, države članice EU su procenile da ima  8-12 miliona Roma u Evropi.
Njihov prosečni životni vek iznosi petnaest godina manje od proseka EU.
Romi često žive u velikom siromaštvu, i žrtve su diskriminacije i društvene isključenosti.
Zato sto zivimo sada i ovde, zato sto se tesko zaboravlja proslost,  zato sto trebamo graditi buducnost, moramo biti zajedno
POZIVAMO VAS DA SE UKLJUCITE I BUDETE CLANOVI  NECEGA STO SE ZOVE
World Artists Initiative "Khetanes

S postovanjem

Dear all, sarenge,

Thank you, Nedjo, for the contribution. The Media group should grow. We need more people to help to spread the press pack that can ready any moment and will mark the day our movement will step in the open. Please, invite colleagues. There are also many on this site already (see under the Tab Who is Who, reporters).

Thanks for the help!

Els,

 

I so appreciated your recent message about bucking up during difficult times together. We have such an amazing cadre of human beings in our group that we can lean on each other amidst the toxic environment of today. Not only is it a relief to find refuge amongst the group, a place to rest for a moment before regrouping with empowered artistic social forays, World Artists' Initiative also provides a place to regenerate with like minded members, allowing us in turn to release accurate, relevant and vibrant information that will help ease tensions and increase tolerance for all.

 

Also, it is so exciting that the press pack is ready to launch because the basic education that we can pass on lovingly will be a powerful tool in accomplishing our mission! People everywhere are hungry for applicable, useful information and good packaging will ensure the data is fully consumed! So, thanks again and congratulations for pulling all that together - it's huge!

 

Now, where do we access the press pack so we can spread the good word? And, please excuse my ignorance, but are there certain group guidelines to be followed, like, how exactly do we want the any member of the group to interact with / represent / release the press pack ?

Hello Tina,

There is some delay in the establishing of the foundation, due to internet problems and someone's health. As soon as we overcome this (quite soon) we will launch the press pack together with the news of the newly established foundation. It can be sent to all members and will be also printed for interested journalists. Right now it is in excellent English, but maybe we will need some translations. In Romanes to begin with.

Thanks for your constructive reactions and comments!

Els

It was a great day of april, I went on a trip to mountains, on the way I saw some smoke coming from a valley. I stepped out of the car and as I got closer to the edge of the road, I saw in the valley a great gypsy camp. I had my camera with me and I decided to get down in the valley. I got closer to the camp, suddenly all the children came to me, I had a fantastic day with them, I stayed in their tents,they gave me food and drink. I have eat with them cabbages made in pot, and polenta, I became friends with them immediatly. Even today we still speak. They have some kind of magic, in the night they sitting by the fire watching stars, nowhere you can feel so free. They were from Tecuci, Romania, and they travel in mountains from March till the end of October, depends on the weather and in the winter they stay in their houses gathering iron for next year. I miss them!
