I was raised with the ideals that Gypsies were inferior in their education, work ethics, social status and intelligence.

    things like only thirty-seven percent of the population actually voted for Hitler. I also learned that Hitler was not elected, he was appointed. Before this unit, I didn’t know that not only Jews were taken to camps. I learned that Jehovah Witnesses, Gypsies, homosexuals, and people with disabilities were also targeted by Hitler. I believe that the people who had to go to camps should not have had to go through it. Being torn away from family and not knowing if you’ll ever see them again would…

    the Jews. We do not have enough records of the mass murders of the Gypsies because of their oral culture. As time passed their oral history faded. In fact, when people think of the Holocaust it always seems Nazis only targeted the Jews, but in reality a great number of Gypsies also lost their lives. Many textual records that we do have are not even written by Gypsies, so they do not depict the true experiences of being a Gypsy in Nazi Germany. In the movie Porraimos, we have the opportunity to…

MER-D Gypsy, the 2014 NASA Mars Rover, rolled over its cold sands, then turned its spherical, cycloptic head and looked over the trench before it. The camera on its orbicular crown began snapping photos almost immediately. It was beautiful, a rich, orange coloured valley that seemed bottomless.
