Anti-Romani Hate Propaganda in Socialist Czechoslovakia 

In the early-to-mid 1980s, openly anti‑Romani rhetoric surfaced within the Bratislava punk scene, most notably in the song „Cigánsky problém“,(Gypsy problem in English) by the band Zóna A. This example shows how antigypsyist narratives circulated in cultural spaces even as the socialist state officially rejected racism.
