As PTLP's Exhibition Intern (Sept. 2025 - May 2026), is designing a traveling exhibition that tells the dynamic history of the pink triangle, from its origins as a Nazi concentration camp badge to its reclamation as a global rallying cry for LGBTQ+ rights.

​

"The mission of the Pink Triangle Legacies Project, to me," says Jorge, "is an exercise rooted in both remembrance and resistance. The work this organization does highlights the importance of keeping the flame of memory and resistance alive through education, programming, and exhibit work. As attacks on queer and trans individuals ramp up around the world, I feel that an organization such as this is fit to meet the moment, making a lasting impact on the public conscience. On a personal level, my own exhibit work around the legacy of the pink triangle gave me insight into how powerful of a symbol the pink triangle is, and working to push that learning and insight all over the country with the Pink Triangle Legacies Project means contributing to a movement that insists on our shared history."
