Suppressed, Silenced and Shunned: The Story of the Pink Triangle Prisoners in Hitler's Reich
Dr. Susan Eischeid of the Pink Triangle Project will tell the story of the Pink Triangle prisoners. These individuals (forced by the Nazi regime to wear a pink triangle on their uniforms in the camps) faced inhuman conditions of brutality and persecution, resulting in one of the highest mortality rates for any group of prisoners during the Third Reich. Compounding the lack of attention given to these victims is the inability or unwillingness of the few survivors to share their experiences due to persecution after the war and continuing societal prejudices.
