There are borders on the European continent where civilizations have clashed, empires have risen and fallen. The Country of Kosovo is one of those places, formerly part of what was Yugoslavia and now bordered by several nation States such as Albania, Serbia and Macedonia. As we take up the fate of Kosovo Romani (formerly referred to as Gypsies), Barry Fisher, award-winning humanitarian Lawyer, continues describing his work with Romani people to defend their rights worldwide.
In the 1998 - 99 Kosovo War, like often in history, the Romani were victims by all sides and still await justice for their suffering. The Romani abuse throughout the ages is a bellwether sign of how humanity treats one another. We have much progress to make to continue the dream of world peace as the 21st century is unfolding.
