Lavender Lives Forced Relocation for LGBTQ+ Individuals
Common Reading Series: Lavender Lives Forced Relocation for LGBTQ+ Individuals MATTHEW: Good afternoon, everyone. Is my mic good? Thank you. I'm going to be careful because I sit right in the projector line. Thank you, Karen. So ask Karen mentioned, I'm Matthew. I am the director of the Gender Identity Expression Sexual Orientation Resource Center, I use he and his pronouns. And I'm upstairs on the fourth floor of the cub, and the most beautiful view probably outside Webster on this campus. If you haven't seen it-- well, you probably did during your alive program. We overlook Kamiak Butte, which was most likely visible during your time here. Sometimes it's smoky and you can't see anything. So I have you for 45-ish minutes, and I'd like to give you an overview because I never like to be in a presentation where we might not have a roadmap of where we're going. So first off, I've a few notes and a few definitions something that's important to figure out what we're talking about. A little bit of history. Anyone in history 105 or 305? So we're going to talk about why history is important a little bit. Some present day persecution and what we're seeing happening across the globe. And then, what it means to attain refugee status here in the United States or in some of the other countries where we would think we folks are going and where the research already exists. So the UK, Australia, et cetera. -

Triângulos Rosa: a Diversidade Memorial Dos Prisioneiros Homossexuais No Holocausto
Triângulos Rosa: A diversidade memorial dos prisioneiros homossexuais no Holocausto Pink Triangles: memorial diversity of homosexual prisoners in the Holocaust 1 Karen Pereira da Silva Resumo: Este artigo explora as diferentes vivências de três homossexuais deportados para campos de concentração – Josef Kohout (austríaco, campos de Sachsenhausen e Flossenbürg), Pierre Seel (francês, campo de Schirmeck-Vörbuck) e Rudolf Brazda (tcheco, campo de Buchenwald) – e como estes exerceram sua sexualidade nestes locais, e como a partir disso, foram inseridos numa complexa rede de hierarquia e poder que existiu neste contexto de situações-limite. Faremos esta análise a partir do conceito de diversidade memorial, utilizado pelo sociólogo Michael Pollak (1948-1992), demonstrando as diferentes experiências e percepções que as vítimas tiveram diante deste evento traumático, o que também acabou se refletindo em seus testemunhos. Palavras-chave: homossexualidade, testemunho, Holocausto. Abstract: This article explores the different experiences of three homosexuals deported to concentration camps - Josef Kohout (Austrian, Sachsenhausen and Flossenbürg camps), Pierre Seel (French, Schirmeck-Vörbuck camp) and Rudolf Brazda (Czech, Buchenwald camp) - and how they exercised their sexuality in these places, and as from that, they were inserted in a complex network of hierarchy and power that existed in this context of limit situations.

Chapter 4. Resurfacing
Chapter 4 SURFACING Y•Z The Allied liberation of Germany from twelve years of Nazi tyranny en- tered its fi nal phase in January 1945. On the country’s eastern and western fl anks, the Alli es swept over Germany’s pre-1939 boundaries and began the quick, albeit costly, destruction of the Third Reich. By 31 January, the Red Army had reached what would soon be the new eastern border of the German state, the Oder River, a mere forty miles from Berlin.1 The liberation of the city, however, took another three months. For the city’s submerged Jews, victory could not arrive soon enough. The years sub- merged, during which they were almost continually on the run through the shadows of Berlin, had taken their toll on the health and emotional well-being of all those still alive in the city. However close victory was, the focus of the average submerged Jew remained day-to-day survival in a city that had become increasingly diffi cult to navigate, geographically as well as personally. The ferocity of the air raids continued, and the So- viet advance inundated the city with hundreds of thousands of refugees, making daily life chaotic. As the Red Army closed in during April and launched “Operation Berlin,” the full horrors of the Nazi war were fi nally brought home to bear upon Berliners, non-Jews and Jews alike. When it was over, Berlin lay in ruins, but its Jewish residents were free. The cost of liberation, however, was heavy, and the experience of liberation complex.2 As World War II entered its fi nal phase, the divisions between the surviving U-boats and the non-Jewish population began to blur. -
Rudolf Brazda E O Parágrafo 175: a Luta De Um Prisioneiro Homossexual Nos Campos De Concentração
DOI: 10.5433/1984-3356.2018v11n22p794 Rudolf Brazda e o Parágrafo 175: a luta de um prisioneiro homossexual nos campos de concentração Rudolf Brazda and Paragraph 175: the fight of a homosexual prisoner in concentration camps Luana Pagano Peres Molina 1 Lucas de Melo Andrade2 Pedro Arthur Passos da Silva3 RESUMO O presente artigo busca apresentar as experiências do prisioneiro de guerra Rudolf Brazda, que por ser homossexual foi enviado ao campo de concentração de Buchenwald, na Alemanha Nazista. O início do século XX, abarcado pela concepção dos movimentos eugênicos – influenciados pelo darwinismo social – permitiu eventos segregativos e deu amplo poder ao desenvolvimento de políticas preconceituosas, tornando arbitrárias as condenações. Neste contexto, Brazda teve sua liberdade civil violada pelo regime totalitário de Hitler, baseando-se no Parágrafo 175 do Código Penal Alemão, que condenava a homossexualidade masculina no espectro de condenações luxuriosas, passíveis de condenação e recuo de cidadania, obrigando o mesmo a permanecer detido durante 32 meses em um ambiente de exposição dos ideais totalitaristas propagados pelo governo alemão. Por fim, ao abordar a biografia de Brazda, pretende-se expor os possíveis avanços na política internacional de defesa dos direitos humanos, com o surgimento da Declaração Universal dos Direitos Humanos, proposta pela ONU, que visa manter a paz e ajustar garantias e deveres essenciais para a preservação dos indivíduos e reconhecimento diplomático de sua dignidade.

The Persecution of Homosexual Foreign Men in Nazi

Howard April 2016 © Andrea K. Howard. All Rights Reserved. 2 This thesis titled The Foreign Men of §175: The Persecution of Homosexual Foreign Men in Nazi Germany, 1937-1945 by ANDREA K. HOWARD has been approved for the Department of History and the College of Arts and Sciences by Mirna Zakic Assistant Professor of History Robert A. Frank Dean, College of Arts and Sciences 3 ABSTRACT HOWARD, ANDREA K., M.A., April 2016, History The Foreign Men of §175: The Persecution of Homosexual Foreign Men in Nazi Germany, 1937-1945 Director of Thesis: Mirna Zakic This thesis examines foreign men accused of homosexuality in Nazi Germany. Most scholarship has focused solely on German men accused of homosexuality. Court records from the General State Prosecutor’s Office of the State Court of Berlin records show that foreign homosexual men were given lighter sentences than German men, especially given the context of the law and the punishments foreigners received for other crimes. This discrepancy is likely due to Nazi confusion about homosexuality, the foreign contribution to the German war effort, issues of gender, and because these men were not a part of any German government, military, or all-male organizations. 4 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to sincerely thank those who were most helpful to me as I researched, wrote, and edited this project. -
Agency and Structure in Zygmunt Bauman's Modernity and The
Agency and structure in Zygmunt Bauman’s Modernity and the Holocaust Shaun Best University of Winchester Abstract The article explores how in Modernity and the Holocaust to his liquid turn writings Zygmunt Bauman’s work assumes that people live in a deterministic world. Bauman fails to distinguish agency as an analytical category in its own right and as such fails to capture self-determination, agential control and moral responsibility. All of Bauman’s work is based upon the assumption that the individual loses their autonomy and the ability to judge the moral content of their actions because of adiaphortic processes external to themselves as individuals giving rise to agentic state in which the individual is unable to exercise their agency. In contrast to the argument in Modernity and the Holocaust this article suggests that the Nazis developed a distinct communitarian ethical code rooted in self-control that encouraged individuals to overcome their personal feeling states, enabling them to engage in acts of cruelty to people defined as outside of the community. In his post-2000 work where the emphasis is on the process of liquefaction there is the same undervaluing of human agency in the face of external forces reflected in Bauman’s concepts of ambivalence, fate and swarm. Keywords: Bauman, agency, Holocaust, agentic state, adiaphoric 2014 marks twenty-five years since the publication of Zygmunt Bauman’s most influential text Modernity and the Holocaust. The book established Bauman’s reputation as a critic of modernity and as a major European social thinker. In this book agential self-control has no role to play in Bauman’s explanation of the Holocaust and the undervaluing of human agency was to become a common theme in Bauman’s later postmodern and liquid turn. -

Pink and Black Triangles Using the Personal Stories of Survivors
Ota-Wang,1 Nick J. Ota-Wang The 175ers. Pink & Blank Triangles of Nazi Germany University of Colorado Colorado Springs Dr. Robert Sackett This is an unpublished paper. Please request permission by author before distributing. 1 Ota-Wang,2 Introduction The Pink, and Black Triangles. Today, most individuals and historians would not have any connection with these two symbols. Who wore what symbol? The Pink Triangle was worn by homosexual men. The Black Triangles was worn by homosexual women. For many in Nazi Germany during World War II these symbols had a deep, personal, and life changing meaning. The Pink Triangles and the Black Triangles were the symbols used by the Nazis to “label” homosexual (same sex loving) men and women who were imprisoned in the concentration camps123. For the purposes of examining this history, the binary of male and female will be used, as this is the historically accurate representation of the genders persecuted and imprisoned in the concentration camps and in general by the Nazis during World War II, and persisted in post- World War II Germany. No historical document or decision has been discovered by any historian on why the Nazis chose certain colors of triangles to “label” certain populations. In an email correspondence with the Office of the Senior Historian at the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum, some insight into why triangles were chosen can be addressed through the Haftgrund or reason for their arrest. 4 The Triangle was chosen because of the similarity to the danger signs in Germany.5 The Nazi party and many Germans did see Homosexuals as a danger to society and the future of Germany.
