| Amsterdam memorial to homosexual victims. Three triangles define a large triangle. This triangle is raised up from the ground. A second triangle is level with the ground. And a third triangle (not shown) is at a lower level jutting out into the adjacent canal. The "pink triangle" was the symbol the Nazis used to label and defame homosexuals in the concentration camps. |
