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

3 Jun 2915 | For National Gay Pride Month, USC Shoah Foundation is featuring a weekly testimony clip of eyewitnesses to the Nazi persecution of gay men during the Holocaust. This is the first clip in the series. In this video, Albrecht Becker describes the environment for gay men in Nazi Germany, and how the relative freedom he enjoyed during that time changed dramatically in June 1934.

WE CAN DO BETTER / WIR KÖNNEN ES BESSER MACHEN / NOUS POUVONS FAIRE MIEUX

The world is full of unnecessary suffering and deaths. Let us at least try to understand each other better and minimise the suffering and tragic deaths. One death is one death too many! Can’t we do better than this? / Die Welt ist voller unnötigem Leid und Tod. Versuchen wir wenigstens, einander besser zu verstehen und das Leid und die tragischen Todesfälle zu minimieren. Ein Tod ist ein Tod zu viel! Können wir es nicht besser machen? / Le monde est rempli de souffrances et de morts inutiles. Essayons au moins de mieux nous comprendre et de minimiser les souffrances et les morts tragiques. Un décès est un décès de trop ! Ne pouvons-nous pas faire mieux que cela ? – © Mark Alexander

FIRST KISS

I am placing this link here because Trump and his cronies are trying hard to take gays’ rights away from them. Moreover, Islam is growing in the West too, and if it gets too strong here, it will certainly take gays’ hard-fought-for, hard-won rights away from them. So here, you can enjoy two gay men kissing each other. What could possibly be offensive about that? If you are so narrow-minded that it upsets you, just click over. Remember: This website is dedicated to furthering the rights of ALL honest, law-abiding citizens. — Mark
