Many people associate the Holocaust with the systematic murder of the Jewish people of Europe, but the hatred of the Third Reich extended well beyond the Jewish population. Also targeted were communists, Jehovah's Witnesses, people with mental and physical disabilities and also, homosexuals. In this episode, we're looking at an artifact collection at The Gettysburg Museum of History that is connected to one of the individuals who was targeted during this this period and found herself in the Ravensbruck concentration camp.
