Yellow Badge in Berlin
Photo is courtesy of "Smutchings" who published it on Flickr under the title Labelled Jew. Smutchings doesn’t say it but I reckon he shot it in Berlin Holocaust Museum. Eventhough the badge is white on black it is evident that it was yellow when the picture was taken. The photo has a powerful impact not only because it is powerful but also because it is exhibited in Berlin, the capital city of the Evil Empire of the Third Reich.
