• Mit großem Dank für den internationalen Einsatz diverser Menschen, in die Aufrechterhaltung der Erinnerung an Verfolgte und Ermordete der nationalsozialistischen Terrorherrschaft auch
  lesbische Frauen und Mädchen einzubeziehen.

• I was very moved by the brief biographies you provided of lesbians who were imprisoned and murdered by the Nazis, and I am sure there were many more lesbians
  who may not have been directly identified, but whose love of women was part of their identities and lives, but who were persecuted, imprisoned or murdered
  because they were also Jewish or left wing opponents of Nazism. In Sisterhood

• I am an Assigned Male At Birth, but actually a genderqueer lesbian Jew who adheres and supports your effort to make the current Lesbians' memorial in Ravensbrück permanent.
  Most Nazi victims (starting from the Jews) have been named, studied and honoured, but Lesbians are among the less known and honoured.
  And intersectionality warrants that, as people can be multiply victimized, it deserves to be multiply remembered and honoured. So a permanent Lesbians' memorial doesn't diminish the plight of other victims:
  it actually occurred that some women were persecuted because they were Jews, antifascists, feminists (so to say), trade unionists and lesbians at the same time - honoring all these aspects of their victimization is our duty towards them.

• In 1978, while still living in the Netherlands, I and several lesbian and gay friends wanted to lay flowers and a reef at the national commemoration of WW2 victims during the official ceremony but we were removed by the police!
  For a long time there was denial that there were any lesbians gassed/killed.

• Violence against lesbians is on the rise around the world. From murder, to corrective rape, to purges, we are being systematically erased from our communities with little to no assistance,
  or support, from governments, law enforcement and protective organizations. That is why it is imperative that the history of violence against lesbians is documented and shared with people.
  Without education and remembrance, we not only fail to honor those lesbians that have suffered at the hands of the most violent individuals humanity has to offer, but we erase all knowledge of a very small minority group ever existing in such a brutal environment. The history of the black triangle must be told.

• Ich finde es wichtig und mehr als angebracht, die Schicksale der vielen Frauen und Mädchen zu würdigen, denen bisher vergleichsweise so wenig öffentliche Aufmerksamkeit zuteil wurde.

  Kathrin Sinschek, Germany

• I would like there to be a memorial for the murdered lesbian women at Ravensbrück, to ensure that this part of history is remembered.

  Jo Brew, UK

• Cette initiative est indispensable, la mémoire ne doit pas être discriminante. Le travail de recherche qui se poursuit est essentiel, et j'espère un jour lire un livre qui rende compte de ces recherches, qui mette en lumière la vie, et l'assassinat de ces femmes par les nazis en raison de leur orientation sexuelle.

  Isabelle Adrey, France

• Die Definition von Diskriminierung ist klar: Diskriminierung bezeichnet eine Benachteiligung oder Herabwürdigung von Gruppen oder einzelnen Personen nach Maßgabe bestimmter Wertvorstellungen oder aufgrund unreflektierter, z.T. auch unbewusster Einstellungen, Vorurteile oder emotionaler Assoziationen.
  Das Allgemeine Gleichbehandlungsgesetz besteht seit 2006!
  Bitte sorgen sie dafür, dass es umgesetzt wird und hier lesbische Frauen zu ihrem Recht kommen.

  Felicitas Drubbe, Germany

• Alle donne che portano avanti questa richiesta va il nostro ringraziamento per mantenere vivo il ricordo di tutte quelle donne lesbiche perseguitate ed uccise in quel campo e,contestualmente,
  il nostro sostegno alliinziativa.

• Ich habe Ende der 80er Jahre bei einer FrauenLesbenwoche an der Uni Trier zum ersten Mal von den Bemühungen um einen Gedenkort in Ravensbrück erfahren. Gerne unterstütze ich die Initiative für einen Gedenkort für verfolgte lesbische Frauen und Mädchen in Ravensbrück und Uckermark.

  Claudia Webinger, Switzerland

• Crediamo sia essenziale mantenere vivo il ricordo di tutte le vittime in modo che la stupidità umana non possa ricadere negli stessi terribili orrori. Grazie per la segnalazione e per l'invio della nostra adesione per conto di delos. A prestoi Ravensbrück.
