Editing Sinti segregation (section)

===== Definition ===== 

Sinti segregation refers to the historical and ongoing practice of segregating and discriminating against the Sinti people, also known as Romani or Roma, in various societies. The Sinti are an ethnic minority group primarily living in Europe, often facing systemic discrimination and marginalization.

Throughout history, the Sinti have faced forced evictions, expulsions, and segregation from mainstream society. During the Nazi regime in Germany, they were targeted for extermination as part of the Holocaust, with an estimated 200,000-500,000 Sinti and Roma killed. They were subjected to racial laws, forced labor, and medical experiments.

After World War II, segregation and discrimination against the Sinti continued in different forms. They were often confined to marginalized neighborhoods, denied access to education, employment, housing, and social services, and subjected to hostility and hate crimes.

Although legal frameworks have been put in place to protect the rights of the Sinti, many still face societal prejudices and discrimination. The effects of segregation continue to have long-lasting impacts on the Sinti community, resulting in socioeconomic disadvantages and limited opportunities for social integration.

Efforts are being made by various organizations and activists to combat Sinti segregation, raise awareness, promote inclusive policies, and address the challenges faced by the community. However, there is still much work to be done to achieve full equality and integration for the Sinti people.
