A commemoration was held at the Museum of Macedonia on the occasion of the death of prof. Dr. Trajko Petrovski

On the occasion of the death of the prominent ethnologist and professor Dr. Trajko Petrovski in the premises of the Museum of Macedonia on August 12, starting at 12 o'clock, a commemoration was held. At that event, as mentioned by the attendees, it was noticed that a very small number of people attended the Commemoration. It was also pointed out by those present that the Roma do not know how to appreciate the values ​​of great people. The same thing has happened to Abdi Faik, Shaip Yusuf, Esma Redzepova and now with Professor Dr. Trajko Petrovski. Master's ethnologist Daniel Petrovski spoke about the character and work of Dr. Trajko Petrovski. He highlighted the invaluable works and contribution of Dr. Trajko Petrovski, especially in the field of Roma ethnology, tradition, culture and language.

As Daniel Petrovski mentioned, those works remain as an invaluable value and wealth that the Roma community should preserve and continue its work. It was pointed out that Trajko Petrovski left behind unpublished works that will be published soon, such as textbooks in Romani for children from third to fifth grade in primary education.

Trajko Petrovski died on August 6 in Belgrade, Republic of Serbia.

"Feather gatherers":Memories of Backi Monostor on the shooting of the legendary movie

The legendary Yugoslav film "Feather gatherers":by Sasa Petrovic was shot in the vicinity of Sombor and Apatin. The Roma who lived in the neighboring also got a chance to appear in a movie. Thus, quite by accident, Marko Petrovic, then a fourteen-year-old child from Backi Monostor, got a role. Although hundreds of extras were hired from the village, he stood out because he was given the role of a groom whom the fatal Tisa would marry. However, he could easily have lost his role because his mother was against her son getting married so young. She got the permission when they explained to her that this is not a real marriage but only a movie one. "We were playing in the street, it was December. They called me and told me - you are coming with us to make a movie. I did not know what a movie was, because in my neighborhood they just gave us electricity" - Petrovic recalls the details of the shooting. "I could have bought a" fig "with that money at the time. Mine had horses, and with that money we could have bought two more horses and a chariot. That movie."Feather gatherers":saw him for the first time in the cinema in Sombor. The first reaction was: "Am I in a movie too"?

"We all went to the village together to watch the movie. They approached me on a bus and asked for my autograph, and I did not know what they were asking of me because I did not even know how to write," he said. He also has the film on tape and sometimes watches it. After the film "Feather gatherers"he had offers to make a film in Romania, but did not get permission from his parents and thus ended his short film career. He also remembers the meetings with Olivera and Marco Katarina from the shooting of the film and later.

Eleven people killed in Czech Republic apartment building fire

Racist - specifically, antigypsyist - commentaries have been posted beneath Czech-language mainstream news articles reporting on Saturday's tragic events in Bohumín, Czech Republic, where 11 people, three of them children, died in a fire in a prefabricated apartment building on Saturday. Media reports on Sunday said the inicident was arson, and some news servers reported the unconfirmed claims of eyewitnesses to the tragedy that police had arrested a Romani man between the age of 50 and 60 in association with the incident.

The speculation was also reported that all of the victims of the tragedy had been Romani. Yesterday morning, according to the CNN Prima News station, Vice-Mayor Igor Bruzl refuted those assumptions. "The tenants of the apartment that was set on fire are not Romani. However, allegedly a Romani guy and a Romani woman were also at the party there, and for that reason, most people are claiming a Romani family was involved," local Romani activist Jolana Šmarhovyčová of the Awen Amenca organization told news server Romea.cz. The correspondent of Roma Times from the Czech Republic Boris Rizman mentioned that among the victims there are still three Roma

Meti Kamberi author of The City of Pain - Street Children Kill Powerlessness

Meti Kamberi is only 19 years old and he knows very well what pain is. He knows her so well that he wrote a book about her and named it "The City of Pain". In his book, he describes his life on the street, without parents and without help from anyone. In less than a month, the first edition of the book "City of Pain" is sold out.

"All reactions are positive. The novel is also nominated for an award from NIN, and we will see how it goes, and I would like to evaluate it honestly. The novel depicts the anatomy of pain, because it is an honest, dynamic and sad story. People would usually read the book in a night, a day or two, and no one regretted reading it. And that was my goal, I wanted to show how the Roma live on the edge of poverty, the image of children without parental supervision in this system. "That is, in fact, the powerlessness that kills street children."
