English subtitles for clip: File:08 Discrimination of Slovenians after war (Romana Verdel).webm

1
00:00:06,060 --> 00:00:12,200
There were conflicts because I was a Slovenian.

2
00:00:14,130 --> 00:00:17,100
I even had conflicts with other Slovenians.

3
00:00:17,100 --> 00:00:20,170
They could not understand

4
00:00:24,220 --> 00:00:31,050
why I had so much political interest and why I am for the Slovenes.

5
00:00:33,170 --> 00:00:40,120
Well, the disappointment was big when the English came

6
00:00:40,120 --> 00:00:45,110
and treated us like enemies again.

7
00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:55,160
We weren’t even allowed to go to church without ID.

8
00:00:58,100 --> 00:01:01,260
Even the English were quite discriminating.

9
00:01:01,260 --> 00:01:07,160
When the English came to the farmer’s the first time,

10
00:01:07,160 --> 00:01:14,140
armed and strict, I (being a child) thought:

11
00:01:15,140 --> 00:01:19,100
‘Why does the war keep on, although it is over?’

12
00:01:19,100 --> 00:01:25,040
We did not understand that there were still armed men coming to the house.

13
00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:31,170
Although we knew the English to be our confederates and helpers,

14
00:01:32,250 --> 00:01:37,160
it was a big disappointment later.

15
00:01:41,120 --> 00:01:47,020
I still can’t understand why the English

16
00:01:47,020 --> 00:01:52,060
let themselves be so influenced by the Nazis

17
00:01:52,060 --> 00:01:58,030
and we – the partisans and the Slovenes - were the enemies again.
