..those concerned are reproachfully confronted by...

I would put this part of the sentenced ahead of the 'Koepfe der Bevoelkerung' bit:
..those concerned are reproachfully confronted by degrading attitudes which are still held by some of the population..

This is just one suggestion, there are probably many more.
Something went wrong...
