    Again, I want to thank Steven Spielberg for this project so that I can see and hear my mother all these years later. We grew up hearing her stories but she spared us the nightmares as much as she could...Seeing today's anti-semitism growing all over the world is SOOOOO frightening!!
  • This is the best one. This woman especially her mother is just STRENGTH and beauty
  • @mrbatman4robin
    Thank you for the immense privilege of listening to your testimony. I will never forget.

    What an incredible woman. To be able to smile and go on with a loving and productive life after what she had been through is a miracle. What strength and tenacity not to give up.
  • This lady is my favorite out of all the testimonies i have heard. She is a great speaker
  • Wonderful.... I am learning so much to appreciate the small things of Life by listening to all of these interviews. And I feel a kinship with all of these survivors because we have the love of family in common. I am from Cuba a country destroyed by a dictator who's hero while he was in college was Adolf Hitler. My father went to the University of Havana with Fidel Castro and years before he took power he had said to my father that his hero was Hitler because of how he handled the multitudes... And that someday he hoped that he could be like him.. And Fidel sure did! Very few people know that for many years Fidel had concentration camps for people who disagreed with his government and the media and history books never speak of this. So this brings to mind that sadly history often repeats itself and that we must be ever so vigilant...

    Extraordinary woman. I've heard/ read from a number of survivors and they all have incredible stories. Judith might have one of the most courageous, determined, ballsy stories of them all. What a privilege it must have been to know her.
  • This is the Most Incredible! Honorable!! And Strong Woman’s. I’ve have the privilege to hear word by word her testimony. Ive read she pass on and bring me to tears. There’s one thing we have in this world she left us with, that is her children. Rest In Peace Judith you deserve it!!!😢😢😢😢
  • @jodiutley7292
    What unbelievable strength she has!!! Very heartbreaking testimony.
  • @sherbesh5421
    What a strong and smart woman. Nobody could survive what she went through. She should've become a judge or senator later in life.
  • @vivdoolan6846
    The inginuity and bravery of her mother and all the children....incredible.
  • @Mamalapp
    Judith has a remarkable memory. She gives her testimony with such detail that you can almost feel like you are right there watching it all happen. Such bravery and intelligence for a ten year old girl. It seems like so many times, survival depended on having a close family member close by.
  • @RD-0101
    What a strong brave fighter she was!!!
  • Listening to this all I have to say is her Mother was extremely amazing woman! It’s clear she passed her amazing qualities to survive down to all her children!
  • Such an articulate woman. Excellent Interview. Incredible strong woman. I wonder if anyone knows who Phillip Becker was. He was my adopted grandpa, Jewish. He ended up in Mexico, and we called him Don Felipe.
  • Thank you for your testimony I’ve learned so much from watching a lot of these I wish I’d seen them before my two daughters and I visited Auschwitz / Birkenau as it would have given me a much better understanding god bless you all and please good never again 😢
  • @lolly2222aa
    My father in-law’s brother died when he was liberated. He ate too much food given to him by soldiers. Tragic
  • Strength radiates out of Judith. I hope she is still alive and had a good life. Thank you.
