Following the Nazi takeover of Germany in 1933, some 100,000 men were arrested for the crime of homosexuality as established under paragraph 175 of the German Criminal Code. Thousands of these men were sent to prison, and as many as 15,000 were sent to Nazi concentration camps, where more than 60% were killed. Following the War, gay survivors of the Holocaust were still considered criminals. This special program examines this history and explores its lasting effects on gay and Jewish life into the present.

Statement of Free Expression

FIU endorses the Florida Board of Governors' Statement of Free Expression to support and encourage full and open discourse and the robust exchange of ideas and perspectives on our campuses. In addition to supporting this legal right, we view this as an integral part of our ability to deliver a high-quality academic experience for our students, engage in meaningful and productive research, and provide valuable public service. This includes fostering civil and open dialogue in support of critical thinking in and out of the classroom, including events hosted by the university.
