Black triangle – people who were deemed asocial elements (asozial) and work-shy (arbeitsscheu), including the following:
Roma and Sinti. They wore the black triangle with a Z notation (for Zigeuner, meaning Gypsy) to the right of the triangle's point.[7] Male Romani were later assigned a brown triangle. Female Romani were still deemed asocials as they were stereotyped as petty criminals (prostitutes, kidnappers and fortune tellers).
Mentally ill and mentally disabled. Their triangles were inscribed with the word Blöd, meaning stupid.[8]
Alcoholics and drug addicts.
Vagrants and beggars.
Pacifists and conscription resisters.
Prostitutes.[9][10]
Lesbians.
