"Homosexuality and the Holocaust: A Forgotten History"

Judy LaPietra is an esteemed Holocaust educator with over 30 years of 

study and experience.

The Holocaust is remembered for the Nazi regime’s brutal targeting of Jews, but other groups — including those accused of homosexuality — were also persecuted, silenced, and stigmatized. This presentation explores how homosexuality was criminalized under Nazi rule, the realities of those imprisoned and marked with the pink triangle, and the ways in which homosexual men and women were forced into secrecy and erased from memory.
