What is frustrating about many EU (particularly Slovak) communist organizations is the complete lack of advocacy for Roma. Roma are easily one of, if not the, most marginalized groups of people in the EU.
In Slovakia, for example, 40% of Roma live in segregated neighborhoods/settlements lacking basic infrastructure (following the fall of the socialist government, several laws enforcing segregation of "squatters", "long-term rent evaders" and "culturally unadaptable citizens"—nearly half of the Roma living in these areas do not even have flushing toilets), 80% of students at "special schools" meant for mentally disabled children are Romani and 25% of schools specifically put Romani children in segregated classes.
Yet where are the Slovak communists? Nowhere. Maybe at some festival only preaching to crowds who are already convinced about communism.
Ultimately, Roma are one of the groups who have been most affected by this transition, yet there are no communist movements actually organizing with Roma, which is a major failure on our part.
