  • Anne Frank is the most well-known hidden child of the Holocaust. On what would be her 91st birthday, we’ll honor the tens of thousands of young people whose families placed them in hiding to protect them. Like Anne, some lived in the shadows. Others took on new identities and hid in plain sight.
    Al Münzer was an infant when his parents made the agonizing decision to place him in a friend’s care after the Nazis invaded their home country, the Netherlands. For about three years, Al's main view of the outside world was through a mail slot.
    Speaker
    Dr. Al Münzer, Holocaust survivor and Museum volunteer
    Moderator
    Dr. Edna Friedberg, Historian, United States Holocaust Memorial Museum

    Nearly lost it when he recounted meeting his real mother after the Holocaust and keeping his distance from her.
    What a wonderful man he grew up to be.

    What a touching story!! God bless this man! He went through so much but thankfully he had a loving family to care for him, who decided to do the right thing! I wish so many others had done the same.

    I am non plus at what to comment, but felt I needed to, compelled even. I experienced a number of emotions watching this. Awe, numbness, dread, sickness, fear and anticipation I suppose and I am only part way through watching. The photos helped put a face to the family, but also are going to be here hopefully after we're long gone.
    But it would have been heartfelt even without them.
    I have just taken the biggest deep breath, as I finshed typing this in. So posting it before I change my mind.

    What an awesome testimony! I get chills when he tells about his mother's decision to give him life, instead of having an abortion, as people advised her...God protected her for doing the right thing: both she and Al survived. So beautiful!
    It's so evident that he is so grateful to the people who risked their lives to help his family.
    I guess we all need more of that courage, when we have left so many people to die alone from Covid in this past year. :(

    Greetings from El Salvador, the home of Coronel Castellanos who, as a diplomat and the husband of a lovely Swiss wife, was able to rescue many Jews. I never met him but knew and worked with Dona Maria and her daughter and I knew his sons and grandchildren.

      @El lado derecho I have known, since I came here in 1973, that only citizens have the right to meddle in local politics. I do not vote or even campaign for candidates. Norma Torres (CA35) seems to think she is the empress of the USA; for she has been much more tyrannical in her accusations and threats against the sovereign nation, El Salvador, than in defense of balance of powers and election integrity in the USA, especially California, the state which made ballot harvesting legal and voting without an ID the norm. I believe she ignorantly blamed President Bukele for the two little girls dropped onto the desert from a high wall; but they were from Ecuador, not El Salvador.

    I was so interested to hear this man’s story, but the continual interruptions from the interviewer about her broadcast pretty well ruined this for me.

      You can learn alot about a person depending on the question What do you think of the Jewish people? I love them and I see you do too. If someone is a Jewish hater stay away from them and if they are your friends De friend them immediately!

    Thank you so much for sharing with me a horrendous fragment of the infamous history of Hitler's Nazi regimen.
    The crimes and cruelties committed against my sons and daughters, my fathers and mothers, my brothers and sisters hurt me deeply, regardless their ethnicity and nationality.
    In Isaiah 2: 4, Jehovah God, the Creator and Source of life, Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, promises:
    "He will be judge among the nations and will settle matters in relation to many peoples. They will turn their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning shears. The nations will no longer raise their swords against each other and learn no more to wage war."
    My immediate neighbors are Jews and I am a Jehovah's Witness.
    Their hearts are superior than pure gold by far. They are extremely kind.
    The gentleman takes care of my trash can every Wednesday without my asking him to do so. They are lovely human beings, and they are not in need of the smallest improvement.

    Always remember to repent of your sins (sin is transgression of YAHUAH’S LAW: Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, & Deuteronomy) And Have Belief On YAHUSHA HAMASHYACH. HE Died and Rose three days later so that you can be forgiven of your sins!
    HE Loves you! Come to HIM!🙂🙂

      Are you suggesting this man repent his sin of being Jewish and accept Jesus to be saved? First of all, it is not your job to save others from sin; you need to concentrate on saving yourself. Secondly, your Lord and Saviour was born a Jew, lived as a Jew, and died as a Jew. Jesus never repented his sin of Judiasm. Jesus would rather welcome a sinner than a hypocrite.

      I have read that they never found out definitively but they did find out it was a woman’s voice who reported them anonymously & they believe it may have been a workers wife… but again Otto (Anne’s father) never found out for sure…
