The pink triangle<\/strong> (German<\/a>: Rosa Winkel<\/em><\/span>) was one of the Nazi concentration camp badges<\/a>, used by the Nazis<\/a> to identify male prisoners in concentration camps<\/a> who were sent there because of their homosexuality<\/a>. Every prisoner had to wear a triangle on his or her jacket, the color of which was to categorize him or her according “to his kind.” Jews<\/a> had to wear the yellow badge<\/a> (in addition to any other badge representing other reasons for incarceration), and “anti-social individuals” (which included vagrants and “work shy” individuals) the black triangle<\/a>. There hasn’t been any evidence for the persecution of lesbians under the “black triangle”.<\/p>\n The inverted pink triangle, originally intended as a badge of shame<\/a>, has become an international symbol of gay pride<\/a> and the gay rights<\/a> movement, and is second in popularity only to the rainbow flag<\/a>.<\/span><\/a><\/sup><\/p>\n By the end of the 1970s, the pink triangle was adopted as a symbol for gay rights protest.<\/span><\/span><\/a><\/sup> Some academics have linked the reclamation of the symbol with the publication, in the early 1970s, of concentration camp survivor Heinz Heger<\/a>‘s memoir, Men with the pink triangle<\/em>.<\/span><\/span><\/a><\/sup><\/p>\n The pink triangle is the basis of the design of the Homomonument<\/a> in Amsterdam<\/a>, the Gay and Lesbian Holocaust Memorial<\/a> in Sydney<\/a>, the Pink Triangle Park<\/a> in the Castro<\/a> neighborhood of San Francisco<\/a> and the huge one-acre Pink Triangle on Twin Peaks<\/a> that is displayed every year during San Francisco Pride<\/a> weekend in San Francisco<\/a>.<\/p>\n Reclaiming<\/a> a previously offensive term, the gay areas of both Newcastle upon Tyne<\/a>, England<\/a> and Edinburgh<\/a>, Scotland<\/a> are colloquially known as the Pink Triangles on account of their approximate shapes.<\/sup><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" 1.75″ Round<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":2301,"template":"","meta":[],"product_cat":[43],"product_tag":[44,110],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/peacesupplies.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/2300"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/peacesupplies.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/peacesupplies.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/peacesupplies.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2301"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/peacesupplies.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2300"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/peacesupplies.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=2300"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/peacesupplies.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=2300"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
