    It is often trivia to get serious nuns in trouble: Sometimes he takes a strange piece of clothing off leash or climbs through basement window to steal food. If someone comes to him, he’s going to hit him until nose bleeds. It is disastrous in early 1930s and economic situation in Germany, many suffer hunger. Ernst nuns lurches from one job to next, a tramp level.

    “It was a matter of survival for him at time,” says his nephew Frank nuns. The Emeritus professor of social sciences and political education sits at his kitchen table in Frankfurt and remembers his far’s bror. His uncle had not been a bad person, but circumstances had made him a felon. The Nazis saw this differently: for m, Ernst nuns was a criminal, one who has evil in genes. Such a “non-community” would not have been among mselves.

    Ernst Nun, who has served several prison sentences, is arrested again after his release and brought to concentration long fin Bürg without proceedings with railroad on May 19, 1941. While political prisoners in concentration camp have to wear a red angle on chest and homosexual men have a pink colour, he gets a black fabric triangle on his prisoner’s clothing as a so-called “antisocial attitudes among” and thus slips in hierarchy of camp Below. A few weeks later, 33-year-old gets green angle, he is now “professional criminal”.

    There were homeless people, beggars, prostitutes and pimps

    Like Ernst nuns, between 1933 and 1945 thousands of people are victims of arbitrary categorization. Those who do not conform to desired behaviour of National Socialists and deviate from social norm are targeted and persecuted: homeless, beggars, prostitutes and pimps. Even women with an abortion and alcohol-sick slipping into this group. “These people should be radically eradicated,” says Frank Nuns, who has been doing research on subject for many years.

    In 1938, at “Labor-shy” special, at least 10,000 social outsiders were arrested by Gestapo and criminal police and forced into forced labour. In concentration camp, detainees are harassed with green and black markings, must afford heavy lifting and are released for “destruction by work”. Many “anti” are forced sterilized because y have inferior Erbanalagen in eyes of Nazis – even if y are “deutschblütig” according to racial ideology by ir birth.

    Despite se tortures, survivors were never recognized as victims of Nazi dictatorship, and re was no financial compensation for m. The federal government’s reparations policy does not take m into consideration. Research has also neglected two groups of victims for a long time, only a handful of young scientists have been dealing with topic for a few years. No one has visited se people during ir lifetimes to write down ir biographies. Memoirs or or written records have hardly left affected, who often lived in precarious conditions. It is always said that Germans had worked up ir past exemplary. But how could so many fates be forgotten and excluded from culture of remembrance?
