Easter is the most significant date on humanity’s calendar – because on this day Jesus Christ transformed our world with His resurrection. Yet despite Christians making up more than 31% of the world’s population and approximately 3 out of 4 Americans identifying as Christians, our faith is often marginalized and even ridiculed in today’s culture. Hollywood and today’s media are generally not supportive of faith values.

In this interview, Mark Burnett and Roma Downey will share about living out their faith in the public arena and in Hollywood. They’ll also share their passion to strengthen families through Bible-based content. Their latest project -- titled ”Resurrection” -- will be released on Discovery+ on March 27, 2021. It is a dramatic retelling of the resurrection of Jesus Christ.

In this vlog I share my personal experience living in a Roma neighborhood that many people considered dangerous. But my experience was very different from what most people imagine.

I talk about the time when I rented a room from a Roma man named Marian and lived in an area many locals warned me about. Despite the reputation, nothing bad ever happened to me there. In this video I share a few stories from that time, including funny moments, cultural misunderstandings, and everyday life.

This is also a small daily vlog from my day in Romania – going to work, recording during my break in one of my favorite places near my workplace, and later spending some time with my son Karim.

Sometimes places that people fear the most turn out to be very different when you actually live there.

Roma inclusion has been a European priority for years – supported by governments, institutions and philanthropy. Yet the gap between commitments and lived reality remains wide.

In this interview, Kinga Rethy, Executive Vice President of the Roma Foundation for Europe, speaks about:

• why past approaches have failed to deliver systemic change
• the role of political will and long-term commitment
• moving beyond moral arguments to economic reality
• Roma inclusion as a response to Europe’s labour shortages
• the importance of Roma leadership and institutional strength
• what needs to happen next for real impact

The conversation also looks ahead and discusses the strategic priorities shaping the work of the Roma Foundation for Europe and its network.

Roma empowerment is not a niche issue. It is about Europe’s economic future, democratic resilience and social cohesion.

Welcome to the Second Hoi4 Fan Short Movie Of many I am making.
The Imperium Romanum of the west teeters on destruction, the Germanic Age of Migrations is in full swing as the Western Empire declines, but a general, promising of glory and the revival of the Romanitas who many call the Second Restitutor Orbis Valerian Majorianus rises the ranks of the Western Empire. Will Majorian be able to restore the Empire? Or will Ricimer's treachery and Visigothic destruction force Ravenna's collapse?

A powerful reinterpretation of “Ciocârlia”, the legendary Romanian virtuoso melody known for its lightning-fast violin runs and soaring energy.

This version fuses Gypsy jazz, heavy metal, and Balkan taraf traditions into a cinematic festival anthem. Virtuosic violin improvisations inspired by Ciocârlia meet distorted metal guitars, tribal drums, and fiery gypsy jazz rhythms. Traditional instruments like cimbalom, accordion, and wooden flute add authentic Eastern European color, while a continuous Roma women choir creates a haunting ritual atmosphere throughout the track.

The result is a wild musical journey blending folklore, metal power, and gypsy virtuosity into a modern, explosive sound.

🔥 Virtuosic violin
🔥 Gypsy jazz meets metal
🔥 Balkan taraf energy
🔥 Ritual choir atmosphere

If you enjoy Balkan music, folk metal, gypsy jazz, or experimental world fusion, this track brings them together in a unique high-energy performance.

🌟 A Tribute to Esma Redzepova: ""Caje Shukarije"" Performed by Jelena Tomasevic 🌟

🎵 With great honor, we present a heartfelt tribute to the late Esma Redzepova, the beloved queen of Roma music. This extraordinary tribute is performed by the renowned Serbian pop singer, Jelena Tomasevic. Jelena masterfully captures the essence and soul of Esma's iconic song ""Caje Shukarije"" during a memorable concert, allowing her powerful vocals and deep admiration for the legendary artist to shine through.

🎤 Esma Redzepova was a true trailblazer, defying societal norms in the 1950s when it was unconventional for women to perform publicly. Despite the challenges, she achieved immense success, leaving an indelible mark on the music industry and inspiring countless aspiring musicians. Her artistic legacy encompasses 20 albums, over 100 singles, 6 films, and more than 15,000 concerts, including over 2,000 humanitarian performances. It's as if she lived three lifetimes in one, impressing us with her extraordinary contributions. Her creativity emanates an elusive magic, a force we subconsciously feel but seldom comprehend. This is what sets Roma music apart, and it shines brightest in her most renowned song, ""Čaje šukarije,"" released on a single record in 1961 alongside ""Aber babi sokerdžan."" A lesser-known fact is that ""Čaje šukarije"" is not a traditional folk song, but a testament to Esma Redzepova's own authorship, showcasing her mastery of creation. ""Čaje šukarije"" is sung in the Roma language, evoking not only the richness of Roma tradition but also a connection to the Hindi language, both tracing their roots back to the ancient and profound Sanskrit. Esma's affinity for India, its origins, and traditions, remained a constant companion throughout her entire body of work, interwoven like a thread in the fabric of her artistic canvas.

💫 Beyond her remarkable musical achievements, Esma Redzepova was known for her boundless compassion and generosity. She selflessly adopted 47 children, providing them with love, care, and a nurturing environment. Esma dedicated herself to uplifting Roma women and supporting her local community in Skopje, making significant humanitarian contributions throughout her life.

🎶 Jelena Tomasevic's powerful rendition captures the timeless beauty of ""Caje Shukarije,"" a song that truly represents the vibrant essence of Roma music. With her remarkable vocal prowess and genuine admiration for Esma, Jelena ensures that the legacy of this legendary artist lives on.

Purchase: http://www.der.org/films/opre-roma.html This film celebrates the culture and struggle of the Gypsy. There is a new generation of Roma who claim their Gypsy roots with pride, while fighting the myths that caused their parents to live in fear. They call themselves by their rightful name, the Roma. The Roma people have suffered almost a thousand years of persecution - from European Slavery to the Holocaust - yet they have survived as a unique global culture. The film explores the music and culture borne out of centuries of exile. Opre Roma invites you to a wedding and to an evening of flamenco dance, with songs from Turkey, Romania, Spain, the Czech Republic and Slovakia that relate a shared experience telling the story of what it means to be Roma.

In our latest video we say our goodbyes in Hungary after an incredible time visiting Budapest, the capital city and Hortobagy National park where we stayed with a local Horseman and his wife. Before we leave, we delve in to an abandoned military barracks and try to reach the tower, but once inside, we find we aren't alone.

As we leave Hungary, the border station decide they aren't happy with our friends Canadian passport, and they hold us for investigation. Will ever leave?! Spoiler, yes we will. As we enter Romania, our memories of this beautifully crazy country come flooding back. We make a brief stopover in Cluj Napoca, the capital of the Transylvanian region of Romania.

As we enter the second half of the travelogue, we arrive at an old friends house. Tibi is from the Romani community in Romania, a separate ethnic group thought to originate from the Punjab region of India over 3000 years ago.

He warmly invites us in to his home where we eat a feast of traditional foods, before cranking the music up and introducing us to Romani music and dance. We explore the village, meet the locals, hear stories, learn traditional basket weaving from one of the villages oldest weavers and drink plenty of Rakia!

Join us as we experience authentic Roma life, from a completely honest viewpoint. Witness the effects social stigma plays in modern life for Romani people, and the warmth and hospitality the villagers display, despite the obvious language and social barriers.
If you’d like to know more about Romani life and would yourself like to visit the village of Serbia or Romani villages across Romania, please contact us for details.

A little about us...

We’re Lucy and Ben, two photographers from Cornwall, UK who’ve been living and travelling in our self-converted LDV Convoy camper van for the best part of four years. We’ve travelled all across Europe from West to East documenting our encounters with the people we meet as well as our own travels and adventures. We embrace the ethos of slow travel and minimal living, generally spending between 2 and 8 weeks in each country, getting to know each culture, cuisine and people as though we were locals ourselves as well as hiking, wild swimming and camping as we go.

We are currently on our third 7 month long road trip, travelling through the Balkans for the second time beginning in the French Alps and venturing as far East as Turkey, visiting 13 countries in between.

Our plan was simple: visit every country in Europe in our rusty tin can of a van. So far we’ve made it to 28 countries, travelling as far West as Portugal and as far East as Ukraine, having all sorts of crazy adventures in between.

Our main motivation for our travels is to capture photos and create documentary projects, so our van is primarily a vessel for our photography. We tend to focus on topics such as nomadism, traditional ways of life, the effects of recent political events and the difficulties of living in remote rural areas as well as documenting our own adventures and lifestyle on our various social channels.

(25 Oct 2013) Roma artists from Hungary and across Europe on Thursday were finishing up a project to paint large murals on the outside walls of 33 homes in Bodavalenke, a small Hungarian settlement in one of the poorest regions in the country.
Many of the settlement's 200 residents live in deep poverty and 90-percent of them are gypsies, also known as Roma.
The project was designed to help the Roma take pride in their culture, to showcase their skills and to attract tourists to the area.
Some of the other paintings have been created by famous Roma artists from Serbia and Scotland.
"One aim was to fight prejudice by showing how much Roma culture enriches our common culture. We also wanted to help Bodvalenke rise out of deep poverty," said Eszter Pasztor, who organised the project.
She has been praised for her work by local basket weaver Jozsef Rusznyak.
"The village was not like this before, there was nothing here. Since Eszter arrived the village is beautiful and it has everything it needs."
Pasztor would love the project to get bigger.
"If we can get some more funding from other sources, I'd like very much to invite Gabi Jimenez from France, Lita Cabellut from Spain, Alberto Morelli from Italy and a few other artists," she said.
