Moyer - MLC President Tue, 01 May 2012 21:43:23 -0700 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.1.3 Comment on Marianist lay woman works with Roma in Paris, France by Mary http://clm-mlc.org/blog/?p=819&cpage=1#comment-1157 Mary Tue, 01 May 2012 21:43:23 +0000 http://clm-mlc.org/blog/?p=819#comment-1157 Thanks, everyone, for your comments. Yes, Susan, the Roma are extremely resourceful. I am inspired by their creativity. Julie, I couldn't agree more: How is it that public money flows so readily to those who need it least, with nothing left to give a boost to those climbing out of poverty? Marceta, your point is well-taken. Migrants will be regarded as criminals as long as we criminalize migration rather than recognizing it for what it most often is: people traveling in search of a better life. How many of us would do the same in their place? How many of our ancestors already have? Father Dave, I'm very interested to learn that Marianists are involved with Roma people in Spain. Are these SMs? MLCs? Marie-Paule and Richard, of course I remember you well! When are you coming back to Paris? I love the approach of Grubb, using the arts to communicate to the mind and the heart of the audience. A great way to break down preconceived notions and biases. Hmmm.... gets me thinking! Mary Thanks, everyone, for your comments.

I've enjoyed so much reading about your work with the Romas in Paris. Here in Quebec, we have been introduced to them through Serge Denoncourt, who has directed a group of young Romas and has had many public appearances to let us know better their lives and their quest for a better world. Maybe you've heard of this, but if not, you will find the WEB site at the bottom. Thank You so much for all you do and hoping to meet again.

It reminds us that immigration is more about families wanting a better life for themselves and their children than about a "criminal element" sneaking into our countries to do us harm. Thank you for giving us a window into your insights on this issue. Mary, your article gives us a different perspective on the immigration questions in our world.

The photo gives us a visual look on what they call home, and how they live. I thought as I read your article that Governments world wide gave trillions of dollars to bail out the Banks during the financial crisis. But alas there's very little given to the poor and needy world wide. Mary, thank you for your article on the Roma people in France, and their struggles just to survive.
