Program Note
The “pink triangle” is a familiar symbol throughout the gay movement, yet its history and significance is largely unknown to many homosexuals outside Germany or to the public at large. Studies have revealed that only one in every four Americans are even aware that homosexuals were persecuted under the Nazis, let alone that the “pink triangle” was used as a badge to identify homosexual prisoners. In interviews, five of the roughly one-hundred thousand homosexuals persecuted by the Nazi regime recount their experiences and tell us the stories of their suffering between the years 1933 and 1945. Gad Beck joined a Jewish resistance group during the war and was arrested just before liberation. Heinz Dormer, a former member of the Hitler Youth, spent almost ten years in prisons and concentration camps. Hein F. was held for nine grim years. Pierre Seel and Albrecht Becker both joined the German army after years of imprisonment, though for very different reasons.
