Johann Scheff, arrested by the Nazis at 16. Despite the terror, he smirked—a quiet act of defiance against a regime that sought to erase him.

Heinz Dörmer. He spent 10 years in concentration camps and prisons; many pink triangle prisoners were not freed by the Allies and were forced to complete their Nazi imposed sentences in prison after the war.#art #pinktriangleportraits #paragraph175 #lgbtart #gayart #holocaustremembrance

Albrecht Becker
Albrecht was an artist and photographer. When the Gestapo arrested him for being gay, he courageously yelled at them “Everyone knows I’m (gay)!” and denied nothing.

and the last prisoners jailed under it were releases 2004 - 20 years ago. Most of you were already alive that day.
I'm from Germany - and it's scary how many people seem to have forgotten about it and vote for parties that seek to bring back laws like #Paragraph175.
