This history isn’t over. Antigypsyism didn’t end in 1945. 
It’s still here in our schools, in our streets, in our systems. We remember to resist. We honour the dead by fighting for the living.
We are turning memory into justice.

2 August is Roma Holocaust Memorial Day. 
On this night in 1944, 2,897 Roma children, women, men were murdered in Auschwitz. They were meant to be forgotten. But we remember.

When decisions that shape our lives are made without us, it’s easy to feel powerless and unheard. 
🎉 BUT today, we celebrate Petre-Florin Manole 🎉
Recently, he has been appointed as Romania’s new Minister of Labour — a huge moment for Roma political inclusion.

Check out today’s Snapshot in our series on #Roma inclusion and the European Pillar of #SocialRights! Too many Roma in precarious jobs, but too few in trade unions, which means that their specific concerns (ethnic pay gap, #antigypsyism) are overlooked in social dialogue. #SocialPillar4Roma #EPSR
