Mariia Simian, from Zaporizhzhia, Ukraine, is living through war for a second time. Just three years old when World War II tore across Europe in the 1940s, she says the memories haunt her.<\/p>\n

\u201cI remember everything,\u201d she says. \u201cI often remember. My mother hid our whole family from this horror wherever she could \u2013 in the basement, in fields behind the house \u2013 because the Nazis were looking for Roma.\u201d<\/p>\n

Simean, who is Roma, spoke at a recent remembrance ceremony for Roma victims of the Holocaust, hosted by ELCA partner organization Phiren Amenca<\/a> in Budapest. As many as 500,000 Roma people were among those murdered by the Nazis during World War II.<\/p>\n

Speaking in Ukrainian, with her granddaughter Anzhelika Bielova translating into English, Simeak continued, \u201cI really want everyone to remember these horrors of war, the crimes against humanity, against Roma people\u2026Evacuation, frightened people fleeing from death, mass graves of civilians, destroyed houses, all this is now in Ukraine after 80 years.\u2026I want peace, only peace, and a better future for all of us and for new generations.\u201d<\/p>\n

Europe\u2019s largest ethnic minority, the Roma people \u2013 descendants of tribes from northern India who migrated to Europe in the Middle Ages \u2013 experience a great deal of discrimination and racism. In one recent survey 95 percent of Roma youth said they have observed discriminatory words, behaviors, or gestures, and more than two-thirds reported having personally been the target of such discrimination, according to Marietta Herefort, managing director of Phiren Amenca, a Roma advocacy organization with offices in Budapest and Brussels.<\/p>\n

Roma people often face discrimination accessing housing, employment, education and other services, Herefort added, and Roma refugees from Ukraine have been treated differently than their white counterparts across Europe.<\/p>\n

Marietta Herefort, managing director of ELCA partner Phiren Amenca, speaks at a remembrance for Roma victims of the Holocaust, August 2, 2022 in Budapest.<\/p><\/div>\n

“It’s a justice issue”<\/h4>\n

Thousands of Roma people are among the roughly 7 million who have fled Ukraine since the war began in February 2022, but many report that the reception in neighboring countries has been far from warm. In Hungary, ELCA works with Phiren Amenca and the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Hungary (ELCH) to ensure that Roma refugees are treated with the same dignity as others arriving from Ukraine.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s a justice issue,\u201d says the Rev. Rachel Eskesen, ELCA area desk director for Europe. \u201cAnti-gypsyism, discrimination against Roma communities and individuals, remains a prevalent form of racism across Europe.\u201d<\/p>\n

Attila Meszaros, coordinator of the ELCH refugee response, says before the war, the church might help about 300 refugees per year. That number has more than tripled as refugees poured across the border from Ukraine, he says, and about 90 percent of those served by the church are Roma people who have had difficulty accessing services elsewhere. With support from the ELCA, they have hired additional staff to manage the increased caseload, including a social worker who is herself Ukrainian and can assist when there is a language barrier. The church helps families with rent, groceries and assistance in finding employment, and each social worker is usually in touch with about 50 families per day.<\/p>\n

One mother of three burst into tears when she received a grocery voucher, Meszaros said. The family had lived underground for a month in Ukraine subsisting on packaged food. She rushed out to buy fresh fruits and vegetables for her children.<\/p>\n

Serving Roma People<\/h4>\n
\"A<\/a>

Rev. M\u00e1rta Bolba, pastor of Mandak House in Budapest, Hungary, speaks to a crowd gathered outside the church for donated food and clothing<\/p><\/div>\n

Ministry to Roma people is not new for the ELCH. Mandak House, a Lutheran congregation and social ministry in Budapest led by Pastor M\u00e1rta Bolba, has a longstanding program donating food, clothing and other necessities to the most vulnerable as well as a long history of advocating for equal treatment of Roma people. In fact, Bolba said, they recently relocated the donation center to another site as the ministry had outgrown the space at the church.<\/p>\n

While Phiren Amenca did not have previous experience in refugee assistance, Herefort said they quickly found a way to respond to the growing need as neighbors from Ukraine began arriving in Hungary last spring. Working in partnership with other organizations serving the Roma population, they delivered food, toiletries, cleaning supplies and clothing to refugee centers and transit shelters along the border, organized donation drives in 30 municipalities, and assisted families with navigating the process to register for asylum in Hungary. They even housed a family for a time in their Budapest office, until the family could find a more permanent situation.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnti-gypsyism is very high,\u201d she said, referring to the slur often used against the Roma people. \u201cThey are rejected because they are Roma, and for Ukrainian Roma it\u2019s even worse because they often have big families with lots of kids,\u201d so it\u2019s even more difficult to find suitable accommodations.\u00a0 \u201cEven if they are earning money they often are not able to set up a normal life because they are rejected in many ways.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cRacism\u2014a mix of power, privilege, and prejudice\u2014is sin, violation of God\u2019s intention for humanity,\u201d wrote the authors of the ELCA\u2019s social statement on race, ethnicity and culture. \u201cThe resulting racial, ethnic, or cultural barriers deny the truth that all people are God\u2019s creatures and, therefore, persons of dignity.\u201d<\/p>\n

In simpler words, the American civil rights leader Fannie Lou Hamer famously stated, \u201cno one is truly free until everyone is free.\u201d As we continue the work of dismantling embedded racism in our own culture, facing and confessing our own sins, so too we walk alongside our European colleagues and our Roma brothers and sisters who struggle for equal treatment and equal rights.<\/p>\n
