Fantastic comic. Can you clarify your source for the stats on the number of gay men incarcerated in Nazi camps? I’ve always heard much more conservative estimates, with a maximum of 50 000. I’m thinking you might have a more comprehensive source than I do…
For anyone in the southeastern MI area: Holocaust Memorial Center has a new exhibit: “Nazi Persecution of Homosexuals 1933-1945. https://www.holocaustcenter.org/
I actually studied this in college for a class on the Holocaust. What was both fascinating and horrifying was how few resources I could find on women who were imprisoned or sent to the camps for being lesbian/queer.
This is a wonderful comic, btw. Thank you!
You forgot about Ernst Röhm and the Night of the Long Knives.
