UKDHM Logo

The Black Triangle.

This black triangle is worn by the men in the photo above - sewn to the left side of their shirts. Disabled people were forced to wear this symbol by the Nazis during the 'T4' Eugenics Programme; which was intended to eliminate them. Between 250,000-1 million were murdered by the Nazis' false hopes of building a 'master race'.

The UKDHM Logo has taken this symbol, and in reclaiming our history we have turned the symbol round.
