	Roma and Sinti
		The Sinti are believed to be mainly descendents of nomadic groups roaming Europe in the middle ages such as the vagantes[?].
		It is derived from "Egypt", for it is believed that when the Roma first arrived in Europe their (relatively) dark skins caused many Europeans to believe that they were natives of Egypt - the only hot foreign country most had heard of.
		Roma and Sinti were widely believed to have psychic powers (see the popular stereotype of the Gypsy fortune-teller), and some romantics attribute the invention of the Tarot cards to them.

	SINTI AND ROMA ("GYPSIES"):VICTIMS OF THE NAZI ERA
		In modern Germany, persecution of the Sinti and Roma preceded the Nazi regime.
		The children of Sinti and Roma were also victims, interned with their families in the municipal camps and studied and classified by racial scientists.
		Scholarly estimates of deaths in the Sinti and Roma genocide range from 220,000 to 500,000.

	Sinti & Roma
		Between 1933 and 1945 Sinti and Roma ("Gypsies") suffered greatly as victims of Nazi persecution and genocide.
		For centuries, Sinti and Roma were scorned and persecuted in Europe.
		The unreliability of pre-Holocaust population figures for Sinti and Roma and the paucity of research, especially on their fate outside Germany during the Holocaust, make it difficult to estimate the number and the percentage who perished.

	Sinti - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Sinti arrived in Germany and Austria in the Middle Ages, eventually splitting into two groups: Eftavagarja ("the Seven Caravans") and Estraxarja ("from Austria").
		The Sinti have produced a great number of renowned musicians, such as jazz guitarist Django Reinhardt.
		The Sinti speak a dialect of the Romani language called "Romanes, Sintenghero Tschib(en)", which is fully Romani by vocabulary, with primarily only grammatical differences, and exhibits strong German influence.

	Education \| Sinti & Roma
		Soon the regime introduced other laws affecting Germany's Sinti and Roma, as the Nazis immediately began to implement their vision of a new Germany one that placed "Aryans" at the top of the hierarchy of races and ranked Jews, Gypsies, and fls as racial inferiors.
		The Gypsy camp was liquidated on the night of August 2-3, 1944, when 2,897 Sinti and Roma men, women, and children were killed in the gas chamber.
		In the Federal Republic (West Germany) the courts agreed to compensate Sinti and Roma for racial persecution only for deportations that occurred in 1943 and latter.

		As public policies concerning Roma and Sinti in the OSCE region was the theme of this year's background Paper.
		While recognising that a number of governments seem to have responded positively to concerns raised over the situation and treatment of Roma and Sinti in the region, the paper points to some possible shortcomings and negative side effects of what may be considered well-intended policies.

	UN Chronicle \| Spotlight on AIDS' newest Strongholds
		A notable cause for the continued marginalization and discrimination of Roma and Sinti is the structures of prejudice and racist clichés, which have been substantially influenced by the misanthropic racial ideology of the National Socialists and the associated fascist regime.
		Against this background, it is hardly surprising that the rate of unemployment of Roma and Sinti has also dramatically increased since the collapse of the socialist economy, in which minority members were mostly employed as industrial workers, and is as high as 90 per cent in many regions.
		Educational attention to historical facts of the extermination policy perpetrated against the Roma and Sinti in the National Socialist State, including its ideological and social assumptions, is urgently required to combat antiziganism and to subdue the traditional clichés about this minority.

	PRESS CONFERENCE BY CENTRAL COUNCIL OF GERMAN SINTI AND ROMA
		The Chairman of the Central Council of German Sinti and Roma, Romani Rose, briefed correspondents at Headquarters today on the civil rights movement of the Sinti and Roma minorities in Europe.
		Rose said that, in an effort to end racism against Roma and Sinti minorities, an appeal would be directed at the United Nations in connection with the 25 January opening of an exhibition at Headquarters detailing the little known experience of the Roma during the Holocaust.
		Last year, he said, the European Court of Human Rights had condemned Bulgaria and Romania for their failure to prosecute serious violations of human rights and murders directed against those minorities. The feeling such actions engendered were exacerbated when the authorities identified an accused criminal as a member of those minorities.

		As astonishing as he is, one must be sure not to fail to mention the other terrifically talented members of Sinti: rhythm guitarist (and cousin to Jimmy) Johnny Rosenberg and bassist Rinus Steinbach.
		Respect being paid, there is a reason why this record is subtitled "Featuring Jimmy Rosenberg," and it is the ease with which this youngster seems to have absorbed the technical intricacies of this demanding style of playing that will likely stick with the listener most.

	Germany's Romany and Sinti Peoples Remember Buchenwald
		For Germany's small gypsy community, which likes to be known as the Sinti and Romany people, the erection of a new monument near one commemorating the 11,000 Jewish victims of Buchenwald is the culmination of a long struggle for recognition.
		"For more than four decades, the holocaust on the Sinti and Romany people was excluded from historical recollection, in west Germany as well as in former east Germany," says Edgar Bamberger of the Sinti and Romany Documentation Centre in Heidelberg.
		Like Jews, gypsies were branded racially inferior by the Nazis and earmarked for mass extermination.

		The people fairly consistently call themselves Rom, or Roma.
		What is known about the Sinti and Roma is that they arrived in Germany in the late 1400's after a series of migrations which brought them from northern India, through Persia, Asia Minor and Greece, the Balkan and Slavic States, to Austria and Germany.
		Also, along the way, they acquired a wide range of stereotypes including "accomplices to the Crucifixion," thieves, practitioners of the magic arts, beggars, etc. Their itenerant lifestyles, non-conventional behaviors and mystical image brought them under governmental suspicion from the early Middle Ages on.
