Gad Beck is widely recognized as one of the most moving and influential survivors of the Holocaust who now speaks on what he has endured. His story details his life as a Jewish man in Berlin, struggling against the rise of the Nazi party and his efforts to resist the wave of fascism that would take a horrifying number of lives. Beck’s story is even more poignant for its intersectionality; as a same-sex desiring, Jewish man, Beck’s narrative highlights the many ways in which Nazis were able to persecute a range of oppressed peoples and the effects that such policies had on these populations.
