Jozef Kmeťo, a Romani blogger living in the Czech Republic, died of COVID-19 this afternoon, as has been confirmed to news server Romea.cz by his wife. Earlier today Mr Kmeťo recorded a video warning everybody not to make light of the disease and calling on people to wear face masks. 
"Never let yourselves be influenced by people who do not believe in the coronavirus," he said in the video made just this morning."I am a living example of COVID-19."
"Today an ambulance will take me to hospital because my breathing has gotten much worse. The coronavirus is not just a common flu, that's not true," he warned. 
"Wear face masks, protect yourselves and others," Mr Kmeťo said in the video, which is now being shared by Romani social media users with the impact of an avalanche. According to his wife, Mr Kmeťo died while in transport to the hospital. 
Mr Kmeťo was a blogger writing on the Sme.sk blog site in Slovakia and later also blogged for iDNES.cz in the Czech Republic. He was the founder and operator of the Romani radio station Redakcia R1 in Slovakia.

Violence and hate speech: How to stand in the way of "mainstream" right-wing extremism?

The inability of the centrist and social democratic governments to adequately respond to the most important societal challenges has led to a global rise of right-wing political power, and such a political climate is a breeding ground for radicalism.
Apart from the violence and terrorism that are for every condemnation, hate speech and propaganda is on the rise, which is more and more present in the online space, which is sometimes accepted as a legitimate political expression.
Center-right parties need to distance themselves from the far right, and the European Union needs to find a way to react.
They estimate that with the coming to power of populist parties in some EU member states, it brings into question the integrity of the whole EU.
According to them, the key factors that led to this current mainstream of the right are new and effective organizations: internationalization of nationalism, functioning of the online algorithm that spreads false information, propaganda of state actors and failure to respond to those challenges.

Pictures from a Roma settlement in Belgrade: Enis was left by his wife with 5 children, and the crown took away what little they had

Life can sometimes be cruel. Enis - a single parent - felt that on his own skin. He lives with his family in misery, where in the period of the crown he took away what little they had.
Ennis recycles secondary raw materials to feed the family. He is a single parent and father of 5 children, four daughters and one son. He was abandoned by his wife and remarried in France. Ennis's brother also lives with the children living in a dilapidated shed.
He feeds his family honestly. Works collecting secondary raw materials, selling used clothes in the markets. There are two rooms in the barracks and they are currently receiving electricity from a nearby pole. They do not have a toilet.
He says: "There are still young Roma who exist in this way. But the crown brought slo, where due to the pandemic now and that thing is uncertain. . He raises his children to be modest. He notes that at this point he needs the help he needs to survive.
