Roma in
Berlin: 'I've Lived in a Car Since I Was Two'
By Lena
Reich
Marietta is
sitting in the trunk of a car with the tailgate wide open, her wailing child in
her arms. She's lived in this Renault parked in front of St. Stephen's Church
in Berlin's Wedding district since April. She is 25 years old; her child just
10 days, after being born in the city's Virchow Clinic. Marietta was already
pregnant when she made the journey from Romania to Germany.
She needs
help. A Roma, she already had two kids, aged four and six, but cannot now
breastfeed properly. Her breasts are inflamed and swollen. She could seek
assistance from the local authorities, but she's afraid they would take away
her baby
