“…don’t forget the photos, it’s very important” The National Socialist Persecution of Central German Sinti and Roma is a travelling exhibition which describes the experiences of German Sinti and Roma (“Gypsies”) during the Nazi regime through the lives of nine families, drawing on a unique set of photographs.
It will be of interest to members of Romani and Traveller communities and to anybody interested in those communities and their history, including educators in German, Holocaust and Romani studies and human rights activists. Between the mid-1930s and the end of the Second World War, hundreds of thousands of Sinti and Roma (“Gypsies”) fell victim to the genocidal policies of the Nazi regime and its allies. This exhibition presents the experiences of nine German Sinti and Roma families under National Socialism and and the post-war experiences of the survivors. It draws on a unique collection of photographs in the University of Liverpool Library.
