This is the memorial for the homosexuals persecuted by the Nazis. Its monolithic structure conveys the weight of living as a queer.pic.twitter.com/5dvFswbBig

Through a window, its only external feature, you can see a film of queer couples displaying affection. A peek into private life.
-
Living queer is still so often something done privately because of persecution like this. That's why we need these in this world.

We don't need statues to Robert E. Lee.

There are no memorials to Nazis, because the Nazis lost. The South lost the war, but they won the peace.

"peace," of course, refers to the period after the war, when the North, withdrew from the South, allowed it to functionally remain the South
