Well. There. Was a miracle. Out. In that. Light so on. I am no longer. There is a lot of this. Time around the only cost i have time any time so i thought. Thats pretty chill yeah. 32. Other kids out here fred have been coming here for 14 years this is a place like no other we do for you to say. We met someone i think its been 25 years were going to. Do it. Especially. I usually you know have a good. Drag i say if someone doesnt ask me i dont say anything bad to me they can do it you know the benefit. Of us etc ok. Look for see you next saturday. Thanks but i measure by. You are no offense but youre no longer a young woman in fact youre one of the last living survivors of the nazi. And im aware of it. And i and im wondering how clear your memories of 70 years ago actually are. I think very clear you leave it. All you like. They forget and they close even though i was in the. Suv and the one. To. Day came. To me and i so i was close almost 14. Years to get to pertain to the place. I shall never forget in my life because i was like an ethics looking over which a statement plays. And i witness many sound. Horrible horrible time. Looking down. On me and bullets hella time. Sometimes of people tried to escape. Their hiding place was under the bed which was. Cut out. Down close but we didnt have any and no. Linda. They had they came with a gentleman. And he took us out. And they were bringing other people from the hiding. And we knew was a major shock to us that i dare. To go. My father. Never saw. My little sister escaped. And. The kids. Impassable todays. When you have such a horrible experiences as a youngster its left to fear some kind of fear. That you can add to a normal person with nothing but on the stand. Because those horrible things what i have see in the skeletons of those people. And only dead looked around was death in fear. So i have them etched there is no doubt about that if i would be not i would be like. So i keep myself always busy in this is helps me not to think. So much about what i went to this dark 8 terrible spot. In my great honor to introduce. Her to regina. My mother is the only holocaust survivor in the kansas city area who was out speaking regularly about her experience. So im going to start my presentation with an overview of what happened to my mom chronologically before during and after the war then my mother will come up and speak. I want to star was one of the only remaining of my family for the war my mom is highlighted there your medal her sister is a little girl back row with pigtails. Everyone else in this photo was murdered. And his sister survived the war in the forest with the partisans and lives in israel. My mom story of survival is incredible to. Capture as a teen just like you are witnessing the worst in 3 different doesnt he and. Her liberation and marrying another survivor my father. Then settling here in kansas city to raise me and my brother and sister. I know that you have made it your part of your business to tell people firsthand what happened and i wonder what what happens to that he. Story what happens to the stories when you are gone and this is there is speaking about speaking and i will tell you what to prompt me. It was an awakening for me when i heard the skin heads denying it never happened it was just like a tongue and to my brain to my mind to say hey sania. This was the reason you survived you have to speak for them. In better than our streets when one day when we are count that and s. S. Men went toward the road arose and just you know how to talk our numbers and they start calling all of those numbers where they supposed to go to the guest i used to say to my daughter you fail each one heart i come please something my greatest fulfillment would be speaking to a disturbance in schools because this is our future generation and then in a few minutes when you see this horrible horrible. Clouds. From the chimney. So you can imagine i dont know if you can imagine. Because you never knew where it would be you are. Speaking from your heart and speaking what took place and you were the witness if a reach their hearts in their make a change in their lives and take out the hate this would be my greatest accomplishment. Well i want to take your very him out for coming and listening to me i was a little in there as. And i hope you forgive me for dead. Man thank you thank you. For joining me every flows on the all excitement and ill be speaking to us of the world of politics all this most im show business ill see you that. This outbreak really highlights that our system for Global Governance is weak and i doubt not only is it International Health regulations which dozens of countries are currently violating but its just the broader system in which we tackle these challenges and i think this highlights we need to do better in the future i mean for one thing i certainly am when so many countries are breaking International Regulations to make sense to revisit that instruments and after this outbreak is over but also our system more broadly for how we govern those challenges that Transcend National borders. To. Understand. Is net from a good a sound reason then you do cool. I was a little business you know i want to. Write. Im gray some are. Up in a really small town in missouri and. My mom grew up in illinois. Her dad and grandpa my moms side because they were a little someone from. Him and he shot in the house. Something she had to go through. And i really appreciate all my life because she is. She is a fighter she kind of. How were so friendly with example for you. My name is caroline. I am a catholic clone shark injure 14 years old i grew up in wilmington delaware. I am from new york age 13. But i do relate to. The jewish people and how they survived the holocaust because they are like a brother religion tourists knowing there was someone who just one person could kill over a 1000000 people makes me feel. Its hard for a good person. But there it is. But you young people i hope and if you do you will be strong and really stand up for the right things. For the right things because all the bad underline the main thing is not to close your eyes when something is a goal not that i want to. Spend a. Me and wonders. I dont know my roots. If you say. You do. I can kind of relate to how you feel because i know like i love my family more than anything like my mom my best. One. And so i dont know. What i would do. My dad. Those are like all those years of your life that are going to get back. You have. A 40 year old 50 thats crazy i just respect. I dont think i would ever be able to. I was your age you know when the war broke out there for things. And to see. Witnessing things what i have seen and. It is like i say i dont care you hate i will not get no i cannot this have to come from a higher. I am not the one to forgive what i see. No buck i will not hate because the hate. Will destroy me and now be a hate there like them. Your ability to say that youre not ever going to hate. When youre fighting with will be like oh i hate you or whatever but you dont hate them obviously but even just to say that is just wrong considering the fact that he actually have a reason to hate me. And i think it. Says thank you for that thank you. You know him. Saying. I never told really. I had a very good eye for grows back let me tell you. No tailored was really done. In the war. When the germans came mean they had allowed the use tailors. To call. But here you can see em here by demand sheen sawing. C. C. M. This is the rush of a day. Are still. Let it go lets for the. Memories said memory its been. 9 months. Till august when i was seeing myself my motor walking to the guest. Of. Which was really i would say. There was a. Hand to left turn right when you were ready to. Spend into camps when it needs. Election. If. The ones for they would still make me smile. We were all stay on board. And the ones which is supposed to be against. My mouth to the left and self to america. Was merely a morning when i hear decide i am missing something mr s. Like something was pushing for me. So i. Dont. Little you know it was a little. Look out except the time. To do. Especially when i saw my mouth. So. All this i want to show you. Ok. This is my bed that almost killed a king sized bet. On this side as you can tell its it goes a little doubt oh ok yeah this is this is really unbelievable. It. Had to be 75. 00. And this he had to get it. In this is was my mom. This is whats left of this. And you can see the color was of the beautiful yeah. You know. This is what they cherish. And its so dear to me that no one. No one can. On the stand and i cannot even describe myself when i hold my hands. Whenever i go to sleep she is with me she is always. After the day that we all met so. I thought about it almost every day. She has impacted me in ways i could have never imagined but like what she was telling us about her mom thats what got to me the most because my mom. Is everything to me and if i watched her walk away from me knowing what was going to happen. I cant even imagine being Strong Enough to go on from that point. We. Are really hard to reach now theyre just structed with their internet social networks and i think that sonia changed that for me at least oh. She had such a personal message that it was hard not to put yourself in her place and think about what it would be like to be her and i think that that got all of our attentions she made me want to change things the way things are she made me want to make an impact on the world and i think thats why its so important that she keeps talking to people and keeps changing peoples lives like she did mine. Blushes and thank you to the chico total more than the beach he cut the whole cost for you to see me your he said its not that it seems its a shame since that always sting against.
