Abstract

Discrimination, together with poverty, is a major obstacle to the social inclusion of Roma people. When it comes to areas where discrimination is potentially committed, the most complaints are within the range of violations of the dignity of the person, or insult, threat or similar behavior that characterizes the person's verbal endangerment. Hate speech – making public statements that contains messages of hate or intolerance against a racial, national, ethnic, religious, sexual, or other social group or its members is often expressed on social networks. The authors present the legal basis for the protection of Roma people against discrimination, possible acts of discrimination on social networks, discuss the relationship between hate speech and free speech and the possible responsibility of social networks.
