San Francisco’s Pink Triangle Memorial

San Francisco’s Pink Triangle Memorial

14 years before the first Rainbow Honor Walk plaque went into the sidewalks of San Francisco’s Castro District, a dedicated group of community members, including RHW founding member Gustavo Serrina, established The Pink Triangle Memorial: the first historical landmark in the USA remembering LGBT victims persecuted in Fascist Europe between 1933-1945. Today I took a stroll through. Thank you to all the volunteers who maintain the site, including its wonderful flowering garden.
