4 questions: • 1) Shortly present yourself, tell us your age and for example what is your occupation and where do you see yourself in the future • 2) Were you born in the Czech Republic? Are your parents Czech? • 3) Do you feel people around you treat you differently than the others, because you have something different? (ex. origin, skin colour, sex...) How does it show? • 4) Have you ever thought about what would be the best solution for preventing racist or xenofobic display?
5 minorities: • Vietnamese • Turkish • Bulgarian • Ukranian • Serbian
Ngoc Anh Nguyen • 1) My name is Ngoc Anh Nguyen, I’m 20 years old and I’m in the last year of english high school. I would like to become a well known artist and a succesful woman. • 2) I was born in Vietnam and both my parents are Vietnamese. • 3) Sometimes when I was younger kids would laughed at me, but recently it’s older people having unpleasant comments. • 4) I see that the only solution to my problem is either to move back to Vietnam or maybe to a larger more cosmopolitan city.
Samed Sentürk • 1) My name is Samed Sentürk, I’m 20 years. I’m in a fourth year of GJP. I would like to become a businessman. I’m planning on starting my career while finishing my degree at university. Then I would like to move out of the European continent as I feel here is not gonna be enough opportunity for business. • 2) I was born in Turkey and both my parents are Turkish. • 3) Sometimes people do have prejudices against me and so they act like it, but it usually vanishes after some time when they get to know me better. • 4) I never thought about it that much, but I think time and getting to know the people helps to get rid of the prejudice. Also communicating and not being afraid to communicate more seems to help a lot.
Samed Sentürk • “It actually happend to me as well, that I judged somebody, because I didn’t know them and after a while, when we started talking I realized I made a mistake by judging them too quickly. The country where I come from has a lot of hatred towards certain ethnic groups and therefore I do too, but because I experienced myself how it feels to be judged, I try to get over it.”
Bulgarian • My name is Emylia Simeonová, I’m 31 years old. I’m currently on a maternity leave and before that I worked as a storeman. • I’m from Bulgaria just like my parents. • I don’t feel that Czechs react negatively, when I don’t ask them for anything. For example when I go to any office and ask for something, it happens a lot that they pretend they don’t understand me or that what I’m asking for is a problem, but when I come with somebody Czech, there are suddently no problems and everything goes well. • I think people from the “west” should realize that not everybody who doesn’t speak czech, english or german is automatically russian or ukranian and therefore a criminal.
Ukranian • My name is Nadia Sementsiv, I’m 19 years old. I’m a student, but I also try to work when it’s possible. My plans for the future are unclear, but there are definitely some. • I was born in Ukraine, just like my parents. • Yes, people are usually afraid of me and when I ask them why, they say it’s my ukranian blood. • ------------------------------.
Serbian • My name is Nenad Vitas, I’m 53 years old and I’m a cartoonist working for several czech newspapers and I’m also a caricaturist on the Charles bridge. • No! I was born in Croatia and both my parents are Serbian. • Concerning my yugo accent in my speech, people know I’m a stranger. • I think there should be stronger sactions for organised groups that are being xenofobic or ultra right radical.
