Dutch #antifascist resistance, disguised as cops, set fire to #Amsterdam's Public Records Office, which #Nazis used to find Jews, on #ThisDayInHistory in 1943. Firefighters took their time, letting records burn. Most of the group, led by #WillemArondeus, was captured & executed.

Today in Labor History July 1, 1944: Willem Arondeus, a gay, Dutch, anti-Nazi resistance fighter was executed by the occupation forces, along with eleven others, for bombing the Amsterdam public records office in order to prevent Nazis from identifying Dutch Jews and others wanted by the Gestapo. His final words were: "Tell people that homosexuals are not cowards."

Weinig erkenning voor lhbti'ers in het verzet, deze docu moet dat veranderen

Lhbti-verzetsstrijders kregen na de oorlog weinig waardering. Dat zegt de Britse schrijver Stephen Fry. Daarom maakte hij een documentaire over de homoseksuele Willem en lesbische Frieda. Ze pleegden een aanslag op het Amsterdamse bevolkingsregister.
