Mi sembra di ricordare, che questo fine settimana ci sia una scadenza importante () per un po' di gente in Italia. Sabato 8 aprile però è anche la ricorrenza del Giorno Internazionale del Popolo Rom
e visto che la Mahalla ha il suo zoccolo duro di lettori dall'estero, ecco un po' di appuntamenti per loro:

Bonjour à tous,

Les associations rroms « Rromani Baxt », « La Voix des Rroms », « Femmes rroms, sinté et kalé », AVER contre le racisme et « Ternikano Berno » vous invitent à la célébration de la Journée internationale rrom

Le samedi 8 avril
De 10 heures à 19 heures
A l'Institut Polytechnique Saint Louis à Cergy Pontoise

RER A, arrêt Cergy Préfecture

Au programme:
Musique, chants, expositions diverses, projection de films, lectures de morceaux choisis de la littérature rrom, prises de parole et discussion Possibilité de restauration et rafraîchissements sur place à des prix modiques
