Yes, I am glad too. I am writing a paper about Sinti/Roma before the Nazis came to power, and I feel for what happened to your people. I am very happy to research about your people. There is lots of information that is hidden about the Romani.
Thank you. The ongoing persecution of romanies in many countries is sickening- aided and abetted by the supposedly civilised media. The Porajmos has been almost erased from history and media coverage, at best barely worth passing mentions, and countless millions of people would approve of it anyway.
This was a very thorough and informative lecture... Not only was the past history of the Romani tragic and filled with horrors, but their present situation in Europe is one of discrimination and disenfranchisement. This needs to end- education is the key... there is so much misinformation out there, one needs to take it upon themselves to learn about this fascinating and vibrant culture and eradicate stereotypes.
The shocking thing is if you actually pay attention to what hes suggesting about Nazis you could easily say the same thing about Israel in 2021. Watch from 19:00 when he talks about dehumanisation and human rights and then compare the jews human rights to the Palestinians who literally are the same boat as jews in the holocaust.
@@paksallion True 🙏 welcome to your practical discovery of Karma . The chain of events that led to persecution of the Jews led to passing on the Karma by the Jews ...... That's how the world has been since ages ....and therefore the need to meditate and introspect . 🙏 Om Shanti
Thank you for spreading the history about my people . No so many people care about us . We are being hated so much that we are ot even respected for what my people went trough.
I can remember in the past 20 years local television news stations leading with "warning, the gypsies are in our area" and giving people suggestions on how to avoid being swindled by them. Could you imagine the same warnings about Jews?
I had no idea that Darwin was against Jews and Romas. The Africans were from Togo which was Germany before. The Romani received no reparations. outrageous.
I am happy to get more info on the Roma Sinti people. Been searching to learn more about them. Myself being a descendant of indian origin living in the Caribbean! Thanks for sharing!
Makes my soul cry for them. Those countries and leaders who persecuted the Romani and the Iralians who still are should be brought forward to the international human rights court to answer.
Remarkable erudite lecturer and extremely sad historical and cultural devastation. Dr Ian Hancock is awesome and I have his books and have read them. Thank you for your work, Sir.👏👏👏
I am Jewish and live in Israel but come from Wales. I remember meeting Roma people in Wales and Ireland. Question. Is there a connection with Egypt and India.? Thank you for this. I shall phone the memorial museum in Jerusalem to ask if the Roma people are represented there.
@@pinkvision333no we wasn’t slaved in Egypt .. our slavery started in turkey 13th century then they taken us with them to Eastern Europe as slaves and we remain slaves until 1857 Eastern Europe .. Europeans continued our slavery because they thought we were ottomans who conquered their lands but we were slaves servants to the ottomans 😂 .. so basically we were slaved in turkey and Eastern Europe 13th century until 1857 in a row slaved segregated and including torturing’s killings .. but we were destroyed in India by the afghans called ghaznavi’s it was them who started our misery attacked us in our sleeps mass murdered us killed our brave king and taken us out of India back to Afghanistan as prisoners of war what they called it = as slaves but then we escaped from them to Iran Persia .. so it was afghans ghaznavi’s who made us homeless groups of people ..
No there’s no connection to Egypt for us Roma .. we were Indians who were an military called Rayputs we were destroyed wiped out with our king by afghans .. and ever since then we been away from India and become mixed groups .. but one of our tribes called ghawazee been living in Egypt since the 5th century .. but we are not Egyptians .. our slur name gypsy comes from the Turkish ottomans around 13th century they named us athiganos = Gypsy = don’t touch = it’s a reference to unclean heathens .. so the word gypsy has nothing to do with Egypt ..
Romani ppl were scattered from there home land during the Islam Gazni invasion in North india around the 5th century they were sold into slavery into Egypt but there not Egyptian
Great speech by Ian. We should have been taught this at school much more. As an aside, I was wondering how "Porrajmos" should be pronounced. It was great how Ian can move from one language to another so quickly, but I don't think that he said this word at any point in the talk.

Thank you for the details, My parents Mother Austrian father Hungarian JEWS we know the story and feel the same pain that never goes away.
I returned to this on August 2nd, 2024, with purpose. I am here only because we pushed back the tide of hate and halted the invasion of Britain. Had we failed, I would not be here at all.
My wife is Roma and it's good to know the atrocious behavior treatment of her ancestors. She's talked about how her family was killed and thankfully parts of her family migrated to America under war time amnesty. Other wise she and our children would not be here.
I think mentioning the slavery period of the romani (which lasted for nearly 5 centuries- one of the most, if not, THE longest period of slavery in the documented history) in Romania would've been worth mentioned as you were talking about romani's early history. I think it pretty much set up the scene and put a limit to their opportunities right from the beginning (since it started at the end of the 14th century, the approximate period in which they arrived in Walachia, now Romania, land).
As a member of a historically discriminated group, I send best wishes and empathy to all who hear slurs against their people from the ignorant fools who keep drinking the kool-aid handed out by all the crazy losers of the world.
Thank you for spreading awareness, it's crazy how little talk is about the Gypsy genocide, more importantly it wasn't just burning gypsies.... For example they used to rip of women's hair with their skin and than asked them to clean it... Also made them wash themselves with soaps made from their children... After revealing that most of the gypsies immediately died knowing that they washed their bodies with their own children.
Please don't repeat falsehoods We were treated appallingly but the soap 'story' has long been disavowed as completely false (same with lampshades and skulls)
That would just kill their spirits. I am still so sorry and appalled, even though I read about this decades ago. I am gadje, but grieve over the injustices towards the Roma.
@@astroterf. you're denying it, you could go to jail for that. It's true, it isn't just a story they probably did worse things but mention gypsies and you're all like nope they deserve it. Our greatest ally is Jesus Christ we love him above all. No matter what you do God is all knowing and everyone will be judged. You cannot fool God.
@@deziderziga1484 why would I say Gypsies deserve it when I'm Roma myself, can you not read? I'm not going to jail for denying the soap story when even the Jewish have denounced the ones I mentioned Didn't happen That's not to say we weren't treated appallingly as I said in my first comment
You know, before a Romani was fasted by Ernst Rohm, Hitler was due the same political position his father had. it's not done anymore, the guaranteed position.
Shame is very damaging for the psyche. Instead of shame, you can foster progress by understanding unconscious bias and how it oppresses various populations
The gypsy suffered and we still get condemned i can't even mention the names of famous celebrities that are gypsies they have to lie there nationality to be famous. Did you ever here of a black task force or Chinese task force? No you won't but you will hear of gypsy task force in the city of San Diego California the police Targets only gypsy. It is what it is I just thank God like it says in the Bible in the end days my people will be judging for them according to tribe of dan
The Nazis used IBM computer company to locate the victims of the holocaust using their tabulations for the censuses of Europe allocating 11 to the Rroma Gypsies and 8 to Jews.
Em Portugal também apareceu alguém com poder e mostra claramente o ódio que tem ao povo rom ( ciganos) em Portugal. A minha denúncia é que ele está movimentando o povo contra nós ciganos e está conseguindo. Nós ciganos estamos muito assustados com esse personagem porque se parece muito com Hitler mostrando claramente as suas ideias contra o povo rom ( ciganos) . O genocídio do povo rom na Alemanha começou assim movimentando o povo contra nós ciganos. Penso que incitamento ao ódio é crime nas nações unidas.
I watched the previous romini doc it is very powerfiul to me I amgay and wiyj a;; these docs about exclision and predjudice ... there have always been Gay/ homosexual ones in every group. no onw ever talks about this
There’s a profound irony that Dr Hancock is speaking about racism, yet he uses an extremely broad ethnic origin as “Asian” leaving the audience to assume the Roma are from anywhere from Armenia to Siberia and south to Iran and India. But genetically and linguistically we know the origin, India (as in pre partition India which was much broader geographically). I mean he didn’t even say “south Asian” so raises interest in Roma’ views of south Asians… shame.
Se é a india então todos os indianos são rom e teriam uma lingua comum o que não é o caso . eu vou lhe dizer a verdade , os ciganos que há na india foram levados para lá pelos portugueses á 500 anos atrás portanto esses são descendentes por isso os testes de dna serem compativeis .
The irony of Nazi racism is that the Germans themselves were not and never have been “Arians “ but Romani people are Arians by their language and their Northwestern Indian origin. Arians being the Indo-Iranian branch of the Indo-European family, I never understood how the hell the Germans got the pretenties of being “Arians” ??? There is so much linguistic, cultural and historical evidence of the northwestern Indian (especially Rajasthani and Sindhi) origin of the Romani family . I myself speaking Kurdish and Persian and having some basic knowledge of Hindi can make myself understood by most Eastern European Roma, by using the the most basic words of this languages with the grammatical structure of Hindi. When I went to Rajasthan the cultural resemblance, clothes and favourite colours, music, dance became undeniably obvious. Also historically one part of Roma were originally Rajput warriors that got separated from the the rest in a battle against the numerous raids of Mahmoud Ghaznavi into India . Thus they belonged to Chatriya, the warrior cast . Another earlier group of Roma migrated into the Persian empire on request of the Sasanian king Khosrow Parviz who asked an Indian king to send him a few thousand musicians, dancers and acrobats . This is narrated in the Shahnameh, the Iranian epic. When I see how Roma people get treated in Hungary and Rumania still at this very moment, my heart breaks , knowing that they are such a talented and noble people.
I must add that the Roma were shuttle slaves in Rumania until 1884 !!!!!!! Roma have undergone such horrible mistreatment since they left the Byzantine empire , that a very deep trauma has deeply shaken their self esteem, knowing the glorious part of their history will definitely enhance their confidence in their culture, they also have an incredible vitality and joy of life which helped them through all the persecutions . Devla tan bakhtalo !
Thank you for this much needed lecture. (I'm the daughter and granddaughter -- niece, cousin....-- of Jewish Holocaust victims and survivors.) Finally, there is some recognition and remembrance of the Roma Holocaust in Czechia, Slovakia and Hungary (my ancestral home(s)). But unfortunately, so many videos in these languages are full of hateful, racist comments. Very sad.
I’m Sinti and I’m so glad that someone remembers that so many of us died in the Holocaust too.
