Dagobert Lubinski
David Dagobert Lubinski (born July 17, 1893 in Breslau ; † February 22, 1943 in Auschwitz concentration camp ) was a German journalist and resistance fighter against the Nazi regime.
Life
Dagobert Lubinski did a commercial apprenticeship after finishing secondary school. In 1911 he became a member of the SPD , in 1917 the USPD and in 1920 the KPD . On March 3, 1921, in Breslau, he married the bank clerk Lotte ( Charlotte Luise Marie ; 1891–?), Née Elmer, with whom he had two daughters, Hanna (1921–2008) and Nora (1922–2010). In October 1927 he began working as a business editor for the communist party newspaper "Freiheit" in Düsseldorf . A year later he was expelled from the KPD because of his criticism of the party's course and was henceforth the leading head of the Communist Party Opposition (KPO), which campaigned for a common struggle of all socialist parties against the National Socialists.
After the " seizure of power " Lubinski was taken into protective custody on March 1, 1933 and taken from Ulmer Höh to Börgermoor concentration camp on August 1, 1933 , transferred to Lichtenburg concentration camp on October 17, 1933 and released in mid-December 1933. He was now unemployed. His previous employers had been arrested, fled, or went underground. The KPO was continued underground by August Gössling, Franz Krompers and Erich Hecker from March 1933, meetings took place in the Grafenberg Forest.
On November 3, 1936, he was arrested and tortured again after he had continued his illegal resistance against the Nazi regime and had been incriminated by his former KPD comrade Heinrich Schlagewerth . During a trial in Wuppertal in April 1938 he was sentenced to ten years' imprisonment for “preparing for high treason” and imprisoned in Lüttringhausen prison. But his Jewish origin was his undoing. In January 1943 Dagobert Lubinski was deported to Auschwitz , where he died.
1991 published his granddaughter Annette Leo based on his letters and secret messages a biography of Lubinski. In 2011, the Düsseldorf Journalists Association had a memorial plaque on his former home as an editor in Kirchfeldstrasse. 141 in Düsseldorf-Friedrichstadt . A stumbling block was set in the sidewalk at the home of his first arrest at Säckinger Strasse 28 in Düsseldorf-Mörsenbroich .
