Gay Pride: Albrecht Becker on Queer Life in 1934 Germany | USC Shoah Foundation

Jun 3, 2015 | For National Gay Pride Month USC Shoah Foundation is featuring a testimony clip every week in June of eyewitnesses to the Nazi persecution of Gay men in the Holocaust. This is the first clip in the series. Albrecht Becker recounts the atmosphere for gays in Nazi Germany while Röhm was still in charge of the SA and how the relative freedom he enjoyed during that time changed dramatically after Röhm's assassination in June 1934.
