Jewish Survivor Agnes Vertes | USC Shoah Foundation

[@christineantonius4490]

Fantastic interviewer. Letting Agnes tell her story without interruption and for this reason, one of the best interviewers of this genre I have seen.

[@priyankakumar2292]

Intelligent and bold five year old child. Loved the way she narrated story. She gave a richful insight into history.

[@annasantucci1004]

Thank you, Agnes, for sharing your experiences. It is amazing, the clarity of your memories from a time when you were so young. I am horrified by what humankind does to one another and so very sorry so many suffered through those horrors, or didn't make it through. You are so insightful, so hopeful, very inspiring that you have gone on to a successful life. Blessings to you and all your family! I am also thankful for Mr. Speilberg and the USC Shoah Foundation Institute, for recording the histories and making them available over the internet... Never give up! Never surrender. Be Thankful and Grateful for everything!

[@chodeshadar18]

At 18:48 she says "In 1943 most people did not think anything really terrible is going to happen..." A cautionary warning to us in America today!

[@malindyo]

Today more than ever!!!

[@lidiyapriyadarsinik2815]

I used to think the same way about my country, India. Could you elaborate a little now that 6 years have passed.how do you see ur country now.

Today I went to a trip and she talked to the students and I

[@chrisblevins755]

Agnes, you're an amazing person. Thank you for your story.

[@awalkthroughtorah6897]

I love listening to these. I am a Messianic believer. The Roman Catholic church did a real number. It seems they forgot that the Law and the Prophets where written by Hebrews, and that the New Testament was predominantly written by those of the tribe of Judah. YaHusha (Jesus was of the House of Judah!) They didn't kill YaHusha, He laid His life down willingly.

[@stoptosmelltheflowers]

What an incredible story!

[@annewhittingham8823]

Amazing

I love the interviewer.

por q no traducen estos videos tan interesantesssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss

[@joziemolody3592]

Also a shame Agnes says she'd like to thank Mrs Komusch for saving her life but she never tried to find her and just presumes she's dead. That woman risked her life repeatedly caring for many children when she didn't have enough money for herself. What it would mean for Mrs Komusch to know some of her kids survived and be properly thanked for her completely selfless acts. A real hero. It would also have a profoundly positive impact on Agnes' life too.

[@ggcruise]

Interesting how you have so many negative comments to make rather than express empathy for what this person experienced.

[@Succeshero-yw1rl]

What a beautiful and powerful woman! Bless her! Let the inbred nazis burn in hell

[@secallen]

@Jozie Molody, you reckon "personal revenge" for losing a job extends to arranging for someone to be killed?

[@CountrySing]

Cleary the guy was racist too.

[@pt4942]

Consider the context of the times. It is more than feasible.

[@karenembury6467]

Found your interview so moving until the end .... human suffering as by Bosnia, slavery and civil rights in America, racism in South Africa under Apartheid is all human suffering. I am not anti Jewish but anti Zionist especially with regard to Palestinian , the West Bank and Gaza . How can you say when Governments have directed such actions and most hurt are innocent including children your plight is worse ? These people love their children too. The list of conflicts which your adopted country as been involved in since WW11 is almost endless . For what ?? Suffering is suffering and you especially should know this and see hurt and injustice not rationalise it away . You did so much good by telling your story but them . I feel sorry for you both then and now. May your eyes and heart open wider.

Long live ISRAEL

[@patriciasalassbirthdaysala4963]

And aaa and aaa....uff too annoing to listen to although the story is interesting...God bless you anyhow 😔💜

[@xxthatpookieeditsxx]

You may remember 1956....but not 1944 March 19th. I was 6 month old when the revolution happened but I can talk about it for days if you want.

[@jesuschristislordoflordsan427]

please start

[@joziemolody3592]

I have to disagree with Agnes. She said a former employee her father fired for stealing denounced him because of pure antisemitism. The ex-employee was a thief and very disgruntled for having been fired. It was far more an act of personal revenge than any anti-Semitism that may have been involved.

[@CountrySing]

Someone can be 2 things. I think it was both.

[@jesuschristislordoflordsan427]

its shady business to put names on hate also in judging peoples motives.. but i think your explanation seems quite fair.

[@avajda17]

She was 5 when the war ended. How can she really recall the 1st 5 - 7 years. Do not buy it. The info she recounts is what her parents told her!

[@14Aymara]

Wrong. I recall perfectly well things that happened to me when I was 3. Don't comment about things you ignore. First learn, then give your opinion or else you will go on saying pure BS.

[@briarrose29]

14Aymara wow. You sure know a lot of American slang for someone who's fist language isn't English.

[@AimeeHarrisonDesigns]

I have vivid recollections of mundane life from my childhood starting at 1 1/2 years of age. And I can recall it like yesterday. Not everyone has a terrible memory like yourself and shame on you for questioning hers! Shame on you!

[@CountrySing]

Do you not remember your first day of school at 5yo? I do. Most events that were happening to her were life changing ,so more easy to remember.

[@ddo9712]

It's likely a mix of both. It's possible to recall things that young but not understand it in the moment and someone has to help you put the pieces together. In this case, in a fight for your life and the losses of loved ones that occured,these events would have been recalled and discussed. Can't imagine having a bunch of cousins that you remember and then they are gone,you'd ask about them certainly.

[@jdrex6473]

I THINK SHE IS TELLING A TALL TALE. AFTER HEARING SEVERAL OTHER TESTIMONIES,HERS DOES NOT RING TRUE. I'M NOT SAYING IT DID'NT HAPPEN, BUT HER ACCOUNT SEEM TO BE SUSPICIOUS.

[@faithdavis4453]

Shame on you.
