In 1933, Nazi Germany began a systematic campaign of terror against homosexuals. Branded by the Pink Triangle tells the shocking true story of how one man survived this persecution.

Heinz Heger was a young gay man living in Berlin when the Nazis came to power. He was arrested in 1935 and sent to a concentration camp. He was forced to wear a pink triangle, which identified him as a homosexual.

Heger endured years of torture and abuse in the concentration camps. He was beaten, starved, and worked to the point of exhaustion. But he never gave up hope. He knew that he had to survive to tell the world about the horrors that were being committed against homosexuals.

In 1945, Heger was finally liberated from the concentration camps. He returned to Berlin and began to rebuild his life. He became a vocal advocate for the rights of homosexuals and helped to raise awareness of the persecution that they had endured.

Branded by the Pink Triangle is a powerful and moving account of one man's courage and resilience in the face of adversity. It is a must-read for anyone who wants to understand the horrors of the Holocaust and the fight for LGBTQ+ rights.
