In this virtual “Curator’s Corner”, the Holocaust Memorial & Tolerance Center’s Museum and Programming Director, Dr. Thorin Tritter, discussed an image of Harvey Milk that is included in the museum’s final gallery, highlighting his role as an “upstander.” The presentation explored the gay right’s movement in the 1970s and its effort to reclaim the meaning of the pink triangle, which had been used to identify gay men in Nazi concentration camps.
