Tova you are an inspiration, my mother was a survivor of Auschwitz and my father was a survivor. It is is truly a miracle you and my parents survived this horrific tragedy.
Comment peut-on célébrer ceux qui aujourd hui encore défendent les bourreaux les sadiques et ceux qui détestent par bêtise ceux qui sont plus intelligents qu'eu
Thank you for sharing your story, Tova! It is so very important to hear of your experience. I am so sorry you had to endure such horror and hatred. Thank you for voice!
TOVA, THANK YOU FOR SHARING HEART BREAKING STORY! IT’S SO HARD TO WATCH THIS WITHOUT TEARY EYES. I’M SO GLAD AT LEAST FOR SMALL GROUP OF SURVIVORS. IT’S SO IMPORTANT TO SHERE WITH THE WHOLE WORLD WHAT YOU AND MILLIONS OF OTHER JEWS WANT THROUGH. THANK YOU TOVA FOR BEING STRONG SURVIVOR OF THIS TERRIBLE TIME ! GOD BLESS YOU!❤️🕎🙏🏻
Tova, your voice and your story share the unknown stories we never had the opportunity to hear from so very many voices. All People have value and Life is a treasure for each of us. Thank you for sharing.
Marilyn Silberstein from Philadelphia. My mother-in-law, Blanka Silberstein z'l, was liberated from Auschwitz. She was my first and closest relationship to the Holocaust and had a profound influence on my children and now, my grandchildren. My daughter who lives in Adelaide, Australia, is a founding member of their Holocaust Museum, and her daughter honors the memory of her great grandmother who survived by working and lecturing there.
Sorry I missed this viewing live, but was able to watch this morning. Tova, your story is such a powerful message and I've sent your grandson's tic toc page to my young adult children to follow. I was fortunate to have very good history teachers in junior high & high school. Teachers who never held back on this subject and who brought survivors into our school so we could hear their stories. One teacher was a U.S. Army photographer who took photos of camps when they were liberated. This left an everlasting impression on me. Thank you Tova for sharing your story. May God bless you and your family a thousand times over ❤
Thank you Tova for sharing your heartfelt story with us. I was crying listening to you and cant imagine what you and all the other survivors went through. May Hashem always bless you with strength and long life.❤💪🙏
What was the swimming pool at Auschwitz like, or the art classes or the band stands? Oops, I forgot. The ‘fire brigade reservoir’ was built to look like swimming pool; that’s common sense architecture for you;)
Yea i seen a swimming pool and what i don't get is how is there so many survivors? Must of been millions of them because every jew i meet had family that survived?
And the fact that Germans didn’t have crude cremortoria in the 1900’s yet they manage to find victims to interview with that good ol’ imagination of ‘billowing rancid smoke’ of death lol.
I went to school with and dated a guy, whose mother had numbers on her arm. When she learned my mom was interested in most things Jewish. She told m a shortened version of her story. I'll just say this. She was in a camp as a child. Lost all relatives. Came to the US. Made a life. Only told me once. But I remember.
Tova your mother as you said was a remarkable woman and she taught you to be remarkable too. What keeps coming up is the importance of truth in every part of your story. I’m so glad I found you and so glad you have had a long life surrounded by new generations of family for you to share Friday dinners and new memories with. xxx
The little girl at the front showing her tattoo was a lady called Eva Moses Kor. She survived Auschwitz/Birkenau and the ‘ministrations’ of Dr. Josef Mengele. Later in life she showed great fortitude and dignity in telling the world what she had seen and experienced in the camp and in Dr. Mengele’s laboratory. She was a contributor on TV programmes about the ‘Final Solution’ and the Nazis, such as the documentary series, ‘The World at War’.
@@thomashunter5707 Both Miriam Mozes Zeiger and Eva Mozes Kor survived Auschwitz-Birkenau. They initially went back to Romania to live with an aunt and in 1950 they emigrated to Israel. Miriam was still living in Israel when she helped her sister, who had now emigrated to the US with her husband, establish the ‘CANDLES:Children of Auschwitz Nazi Deadly Lab Experiments Survivors’ Organisation. Miriam died of kidney problems in 1993. These were thought to be as a long term result of the experiments carried out by Josef Mengele. Eva Mozes Kor died in July 2019 whilst on an educational tour in Poland.
Straight Class , that is what is displayed by this special Woman. Very grateful that I get to hear the truth from someone who was there....... Straight Class....
My grandmother also survived Aushwitz and called the day of her liberation her second birthday. I miss her, she was an incredibly strong woman that has 6 grandchildren and 10 great grandchildren.
I commend your mother for telling you exactly what was happening. Many schools here in the United states don't teach about the holocaust. If they do, it isn't until middle to high school. By then, many of them have already learned racism and intolerance. What can be done to get the schools to start teaching at an earlier age? So many lessons of the holocaust can be related to world tensions of today. Bless you.
You are so brave and such an inspiration. Thank you for sharing your story. The Holocaust becomes more real when we hear the story of one individual. Thank you.
The righteous among the nations deserve a documentary, a documentary series on the many people from all walks of life who risk theirs and their families to save Jews during the war.
Gracias por compartir su historia. Escuchar como una niña de 5 años y medio pudo soportar todo y sobrevivir es maravilloso, sobre todo al escucharla no se siente que guarde rencor u odio. Verla disfrutar y enseñar a sus nietos y todos los que quieran escucharla nos enseña que el amor siempre nos sana y nos salva.
Thank you dear Tova, for sharing your touching story with us. Although it's January 30 while I'm listening, I want to wish you a very happy second birthday afterwards. God bless you and your lovely family. I love you and all the Jewish people ❤
Over 300 Holocaust survivors are against Zionism because they believed their ways were fascistic. I watched another survivor very sad about what Israel has always done to the Palestinians and now horrible. Never again is for everyone.
Thank you Tova, for telling your story. I was not born until 9 years after you were liberated. 2 of my uncles served in the US military in the European theater of WWII. My father was too young to serve during WWII, but he and my mother taught me of the horrors that Nazi Germany inflicted on millions of Jewish people. I was appalled by what I learned though out my growing up years from my parents, my uncles and my history teachers. But it was not until I was adult in a college class that I was able to meet and talk with survivors of the Holocaust. Tova you talked about your faith and struggle with God because, "Where was He, during that time, I am not Jewish but do have a strong belief in God, who loves all his children. I believe that God was with you and every Jew, those who were murdered during that time and those who survived. And I believe that He was shedding tears. But He could not take away the agency of those evil people. I also believe that in the spirit world after death. All those, again, those who were murdered and those who survived, will be able to testify before God, to witness, that those people were the ones who turned against God by committing those atrocities against His children.
Your mother was so intelligent with such good survival skills and she passed those on to you. And your father also survived. He also had good survival skills. In your case, you did not survive because of luck. You survived because of your mother's training and smarts. Out of all the prisoners, she was the only one who came up with the plan to save herself and her child before the march. I am so happy you have your children and grandchildren who love you so much and I am sorry to hear after all you have suffered you feel survivor's guilt. One life saved is a whole world. God did not save you; your mother saved you. She must have been a remarkable woman.
Thank you for presenting this video. A special thank you to Tova for sharing her unimaginable experiences as a child who survived the horrors of the Holocaust. You have done much since the Holocaust to challenge anti-Semitism.
We can't really understand how dangerous every single day was for all the people who lived near death every day. Thanks for spreading your inspirational story.
Watching Tovas interview actually changed my whole life ha! For many years, I felt like I couldn’t participate in the academic conversation, because it had become so twisted and evil but she inspired me to face that evil, to run alongside them, I’ve gone back to school, and I’ve become quite successful in academia. Who would have believed it?? Anyway. I’m not letting the bad and the evil prevent me from taking part anymore. I love her stories. She gives such a unique perspective, although general, sounding to many I’ve seen and heard a lot of stories from the Holocaust, and had a really good holocaust education, and her story Wonderful to listen to although excruciating and frustrating to hear
Ma'am Tova Thank You So Very Much For Telling Your Good Stories And I Feel Sorry For What Have Happened To You And Your Family! For All Those Who Punish All The Jews They're Probably Hell Burning With Fire! May God Bless All Of Us And Have A Blessed Great Lovely Wonderful Evening Everyone!!
May God bless you and your family. I don’t understand how antisemitism is even still a thing today. I can’t wrap my head around it. hating people who are Jewish.. We live in a sick world.
I'm sorry you had to go through that and I will honor the Holocaust memorial every year. Just wondering why would they kill you guys even if you didn't have a disease
Bonjour Vous melangez tout là.🙄 La Shoah et la situation actuelle n ont pas de lien....hormis que le Hamas veut détruire le peuple juif, ça fait parti de leur charte. Tout comme les nazis avait programmé la disparition des juifs à l époque.
This is why she was saved, to bare witness, and help others thru the terror. God was with you, and still is my dear.
Tova, we will never forget. May God Bless You and all lost.
Tova you are an inspiration,

I’m listening and watching from New Jersey. I cannot imagine experiencing what you went through at such an early age.
Your strength was obviously a gift from your parents. You may be one of the few children who lived, but even fewer whose parents also survived.

There are so many parts of her story that ring familiar to our current time: socialism, academia, immigration.
Never so many survived a death camp.
There is people who were able to survive.
@@bighand1530 and went on to commit a genocide in Palestine.
For every child tattooed , there was a grown adult who did it to them.

Because no one nowhere wanted to take the survivors, they went where they could…..should the Germans and the British pay for this mess now?
My grandmother and mother are white... my grandfather white.... ???!
