Classification System in Nazi Concentration Camps. (2016, January 29) from https://www.ushmm.org/wlc/en/article.php?ModuleId=10005378

This newspaper article reviews the "Pink Triangle”, and how the system within the Nazi Concentration camps was run. The author's position was to show readers how the different “classes” such as religion, personal characteristics, sexual orientation and much more by how those people were treated depending on what they were classified as. The information comes from  and is displayed in the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington DC. This display shows how inmates were labeled through the marking system. This piece is a relevant source for my Wikipedia article because it provides a lot of information about how the marking system works and as well with the different classifications as to who was selected to be taken in as an inmate and where it went from there which then leads to the marking system and the Pink Triangle.

Oswald, L. (2004). Homocaust: The Gay victims of the Holocaust: Pink Triangles. Retrieved April 04, 2016, from http://www.hardenet.com/homocaust/pinktriangles.htm

The article “ The Holocaust; The Gay victims of the Holocaust” is about what the gay victims in the holocaust went through. The author Lewis Oswald, describes in great detail about what each gay person went through and provides great explanation by giving a timeline of events. The author discusses the group ACT-UP and how it chose to use the Pink Traingle to use as their symbol to show the intolerance of what the gay’s went through in WWll. This piece is a relevant source for my Wikipedia article because it provides a lot of information about the Pink Triangle and it also talks about the group ACT-UP which I can then discuss about how they somewhat built off the Pink Triangle.
