Hate Has No Home In Hungary

On February 23 it was exactly three years to the day that Robert Csorba and his five-year-old son Robert Csorba Jr. lost their lives in Tatárszentgyörgy. Their brutal murder was part of a spree of violent hate crimes against the Roma that swept across Hungary in 2008-2009.

Over 150 memorial services were held, not only in Hungary but all across Europe as Roma and non-Roma remembered the tragic victims. In Matyas ter, in the 8th district of Budapest, about 400 people gathered to pay their respects. Songs were sung, poems and speeches were emotionally delivered as the crowd laid candles and flowers in a touching tribute. (via ROMEDIA FOUNDATION)
