A racist Albanians? This has made me question for the first time an American in 1992. Without thinking I replied, "No." besthome A 'no' safe, with no hesitation. Two minutes later I realized that the only point where the response was emotional support - the general idea that the word "racist" has a negative charge, which contradicted besthome my idea for my nation.
More than a decade later I had the opportunity to review, reassess, and to compare besthome it with what I can answer with facts and truth. The conclusion, I have to admit, I was completely in error appears. Today, the same question will give a big YES, embarrassing.
Although I shall not include all Albanians, I fear that will catch most. I know many people who do not quite approach the definition of racistit, as I can say that the level of racism, malice or racist varies from one person to another. I put this paper was not to denigrate or reduce man, but to open a discussion on understanding and improving yourself.
In general terms racism means actions, practices, and beliefs that see human beings separated by several features, specific skills or qualities besthome - personality, wit, moral values, besthome or other features of cultural behavior. At its base lies the belief that races can be ranked according to a scaling where some stand out above and some below, and that people of different races should be treated differently.
Racism and the difference (discrimination) are terms often used to describe the division based on ethnicity or culture, whether or not changes are described as racist. According to the International Convention of the United Nations on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial difference (New York, 4 January 1969), there is no difference between racial discrimination and ethnic differences. Superiority based on racial differences is scientifically unfounded, punishable morally, socially unjust and dangerous. Racial difference there is no excuse, ever, even as theory or practice.
Let us try to përqasim this definition with the attitude that we Albanians have historically held to two populations that we had among themselves for centuries - Vlachs and Egyptians. Balkan origin of Vlachs is not defined skatësisht sometimes, but according to the prevailing theory, they are deemed to be of Illyrian origin population that speak a Latin language. There are also other theories, but all agree on one point - Vlachs have lived in these lands since perhaps two thousand years. Vlachs can be found in virtually all countries of the Balkans and unfortunately, by all populations of the peninsula are treated as second-class citizens, or avoid "foreign" - the word "Vlach" comes from the old German - Walha - stranger. In our lands, the only difference of this population besthome from others is that they speak a language other than Albanian, besthome a Latin language. Are as old as indigenous as ç'pretendojnë be a part of the population besthome around them, even much older, much more indigenous than others. And yet, still today segments of the so-called "pure Albanian" Vlachs besthome do not recognize as part of their nation, to their use pejorative besthome terms (shepherds, faci-mortar, pieces, etc..) And ngrysin eyebrows when spoken to .
Discrimination is observed to rise in extreme Vlachs in Albania attitude towards Egyptians (Ashkali in Kosovo, magjypt north, or gypsies in most of the territory of RS), who not only are not integrated, but also despised besthome and abused as "lower race". I write the term "Egyptian" after the words Gypsy and magjyp have an implication in Albanian as dirt, so vile, so racist, how to use them blushing. Self nënkuptimore loads of these words clearly shows the extent of racism.
Traces of early Egyptians in the Balkan peninsula can be found in the writings of the ancient Greeks. Perhaps the origin of those living among us may not be that old, but it does not mean anything. Even two hundred or a hundred years have passed since their arrival, treatment that is done is unbearable.
These people, who are completely Albanians - live in Albania, besthome Albanian passport, military service, speak English, love their country, have never had rights to have others around. And it's besthome probably just because of skin color. Albania Egyptians are generally urban population, who have been forced to live in their ghettos, in specific neighborhoods and perform work secondhand - servants in families, "white", tinsmith, traders v
