For those that think the Holocaust was exclusively Jewish, the Roma (Gypsies), the mentally impaired, and the homosexuals were targets too! Gay Jews suffered the most for they had to content with the rejection from their own community, as evidence by the opposition by the ultra-religious to a memorial to the gay Jewish victims of the Holocaust.
Roma mark holocaust at Auschwitz
By Adam Easton
BBC, Warsaw The 60th anniversary of the Roma holocaust is being marked this week at Auschwitz and elsewhere.
In August 1944, the Nazis killed all those in the camp they had created for the Roma, or Gypsies, who like Jews were singled out for extermination.
Roma leaders from across the world are gathering at Auschwitz camp in southern Poland on Monday to commemorate the date.
It is the largest act of remembrance ever for Roma victims of the holocaust.
At the concentration camp, Roma leaders will take part in a large rally to the crematoria.
