E 'cliché think of Nazi persecution only to the Jews, which was certainly the majority of prisoners, but forgetting that in those camps were many people who lost their lives. For each category or group people the Germans had established as a badge of recognition, a colored triangle. Green for criminals, red for political prisoners, brown for Gypsies, black for anti-social, pink for homosexuals.
And homosexuals were subjected to a double persecution inside the camp were also discriminated against by fellow prisoners, and after the war and the liberation from Nazism, the survivors had to hide just passed since the tragedy that paragraph 175, the German law prohibiting homosexual relations, remained in force through the Nazi for 24 years and, in milder form, until 1979.
E' anche per questo che il triangolo rosa divenne uno dei simboli del movimento di liberazione omosessuale che cominciò a riformarsi dopo i noti fatti di Stonewall nel 1969.
Il Movimento Omosessuale Sardo intende colmare questa lacuna e ricordare le vittime dimenticate, coloro che anche dopo la fine del nazismo continuarono ad essere perseguitati ed incarcerati per il solo fatto di essere omosessuali.
