Romani people, remember your right to dignity!

Do you come home from work after sundown every day only to be met with mistrust at every turn? Do you fall asleep to news reports complaining about our "fellow citizens on welfare"? Don’t feel like "adapting" yourself to the general mood of indifference and suspicion? SPEAK UP!

We call on Romani (and other) professionals to contact our editors and share their job experiences with us! On the basis of your personal stories, we will create brief portraits of you and use them to support the ongoing campaign being conducted by the IQ Roma Servis and Romea, o.s. associations, called "Romani people work – and want to". We will also use your stories to spread general awareness about Romani employees in our society.

We are also interested in stories from the "outside", through the eyes of your employers or work colleagues. Stories of job-seekers, stories with bad and good endings – all of your personal difficulties, experiences, journeys and successes while making it into the Czech labor market. The stories can also be published anonymously.

DON’T HIDE YOUR LIGHT UNDER A BUSHEL. REMEMBER YOUR RIGHT TO DIGNITY. WORK FOR IT.

Please send stories about your profession no longer than one page in length to Adéla Gálová at ethnic.friendly@gmail.com. You can also contact us by phone at +420 257 329 667.
