He used Twitter to briefly but powerfully tell the story of a German artist called Richard Grune, a talented gay man trained in the Bauhaus School of Weimar just before Adolf Hitler and the Nazi party came to power.

Grune was arrested for the crime of homosexuality in 1934 and spent years in both Sachsenhausen and Flossenberg concentration camps. Alongside other LGBTQ people, Jewish people and other minorities, he lived through immeasurable horrors.
