More than 170 Romani men and women running in Czech local elections, one Romani candidate is running for Senate

Upwards of 170 Romani men and women are running in this year's local elections in the Czech Republic and vying for seats on the local assemblies of cities and municipal departments. The elections will take place on Friday 23 September and Saturday 24 September and more than 195,000 candidates total will compete.

Local elections are always combined with elections to one-third of the Senate, and the runoff second round will be held one week later. Just one Romani candidate, Štěpán Kavúr, is running for the Czech Social Democratic Party (ČSSD) to become the senator from the Municipal Department of Prague 10.

Serbia: Discriminatory and racist texts against the Roma are again in the textbooks

Such content in the educational system is not the first time. In addition to this, there are also numerous songs, short stories and stories that encourage stereotypes and discrimination of Roma in Serbia in the same way.

We cannot talk about such content as isolated and random, but as a systemic problem.

The state and the competent Ministry (the sector for pre-school and school education and the department for coordinating the work of school administrations) are responsible for this content. The question arises whether such educational content encourages an egalitarian society or racism? Because the state actually promotes racism and finances it through this kind of content.

Second, teachers have a choice whether or not to talk about it and how. Why didn't any of the teachers send feedback to the publishers of such books. But when such acts are discussed, everyone jokes and laughs, and that comedy encourages racism. We should work on prevention and not wait for ORS to react.

Serbia needs education about its history of racism towards others in order to cure itself of that disease. And as a nation we cannot heal as long as there is this attitude that some are valuable and others are not. It is a matter of social norms. Do we want to be the society of the 30s and 40s when inequality was systematically promoted?

A creative answer to a puzzle for a first grader

You probably remember the riddles and riddles you encountered in school. Whether it's a daily brain exercise or a game, puzzles are there to make us think and look at things differently.

As part of brainstorming for first graders, teacher Beth Turner presented a puzzle to class. One of the students gave an answer that is not only creative but also ridiculously existential. Of course, all this was published on the Internet and caused a storm of reactions and comments.

This is the puzzle:

"I am the beginning of everything, the end of everything."

I am the beginning of eternity, the end of time and space.

What am I?'

To solve the puzzle, you need to read it in English as well: „I am the beginning of everything, the end of everywhere.
I'm the beginning of eternity, the end of time and space.
What am I?“
The answer to the riddle is the letter "e", because in English "all", "end", "eternity", begins with that letter, and "time", "space", "everywhere" ends with the same letter.

Man saves four children from apartment fire in Lipník nad Bečvou, Czech Republic

Jan Sivák (27) saved his relatives from a fire on Hvězdní Street in Lipník nad Bečvou, Czech Republic during the first Sunday of August. The four children were standing at a window and desperately calling for help after their apartment caught fire. 

The children were fortunate to be heard by their relative, who lives one street over and did not hesitate to rescue them. When he heard the children crying desperately and calling for help at 2:30 AM, he ran out into the darkened street. 

Just one street over, the four children and their mother were fighting for their lives. Sivák wasted no time borrowing a ladder from a neighbor so he could bring the children down one by one from the burning hell that their home had become. 

"Four children aged 2, 8, 13 and 15 were standing at a window calling for help, immediate action was necessary. They were unable to get out. I called the fire department immediately. There was no time to wait for them, though, so we leaned a neighbor's ladder against the building and I climbed up it to the second floor. I carried the children one by one out of the burning apartment to safety. It all took about five minutes," Sivák described to news server Romea.cz what he managed to do before firefighters arrived.  

"Afterward I heard the emergency services drive up and they removed the children's mother, my aunt, from the burning apartment," Sivák said. She was taken to hospital to be treated for smoke inhalation and was released the following day. 

"The next day I found out that the family had lit a candle in the kitchen and their cat had knocked it over. Fortunately they all managed to move into the living room in time, away from the spreading fire, and called for help," their rescuer described
