The Pink Triangle is one of history’s reminders of hate and intolerance and part of appreciating & celebrating where we are today for PRIDE Weekend 2016 is understanding where we have been. That is why the Pink Triangle is here, to educate others about the Hatred of the Past to help prevent it from happening again.
