Jewish Survivor Joli Hillman-Noy Testimony | USC Shoah Foundation

[@EmmaGnillot]

From all these videos I'm learning how important it is to have humility when conducting an important interview like this.

[@pattybeauchamp1203]

I have listened to many, many of these survivor testimonies...but, this interviewer was by far the very worst!!!!! If I had been Joli I would’ve put her in her place or walked out on her. Joli, was a beautiful soul, & I loved listening to her is the only reason I stuck with this interview ❤️. Joli had so much patience & was so gracious with this interviewer...I could not have done it.

[@djbranson5698]

Totally agree with you

[@annekremer3585]

The interviewer barely lets this poor woman tell her story.

[@estherfourfourteen5508]

Sadly I have to agree on this one.

[@patmontefiori1886]

I can barely listen to this testimony the interviewer has to be silent and let her talk this is so terrible I so sorry for this survivor.

[@melodyparsons8468]

Ms Jolie how wonderful is your story. Thank you for sharing!

[@janetblanc7658]

I'm so glad this lovely lady's dreams finally came through.

[@joziemolody3592]

It's unbelievable how rude this interviewer was! The more you listen, the more you want to hear Joli's story but the more this interviewer keeps interrupting and talking over her.

[@Tanya19131]

Such a brave and strong lady, I admire her, can't imagine how much strength is need to survive so many losts. ♡

[@pji4994]

Very sweet lady. Suffering during the Holocaust was unimaginable.

[@9215689]

This interviewer is a disgrace this poor woman, having to listen to this pain.We want to hear her story...sounds like an interrogation.

[@djbranson5698]

Shame, shame shame on this rude and irritating interviewer...I believe.she likes the sound of her own voice and talks over this magnificant survivor!!!

[@patriciabayham6679]

This interviewer is absolutely HORRIBLE, RUDE AND DISRESPECTFUL how can they keep letting her talk to this beautiful soul like this.

[@MsBernadetteblack]

Is this an interview or an interrogation ?

[@elizabethrand8806]

I’d rather have testified at the Nuremberg trials than be interviewed by this person.

[@deborahborne4861]

The interviews are best when allowed to flow. This interviewer continued to insert herself and it was very annoying.

[@markparker8297]

The interviewer is nerve-wracking it's like she is badgering the surviver it's like she is trying to catch her in a lie I feel bad for this surviver to agree to be interviewed about the worst part of her life which she has already been terrorised now this interviewer is trying to terriorise the surviver

[@erika8627]

I thought the same thing, she has a very accusatory tone.

[@wanderingfree149]

Is there any way you can fix the audio on this? All of them are so low

[@joziemolody3592]

One point really sticks out to me. One of the German soldiers (Wehrmacht) staying in ther home found out what would happen to them after he had been traveling. He risked his own life offering to take the entire family in his truck to safety but the parents refused to go or believe him. Later Joli says that they never had any kind of warning of what was going to happen to them. What more of a warning could you possibly need or ask for?

[@allabiel3340]

I believe they were hungarian soldiers

[@debbiestreety2986]

Ahhhhhhhhhhhh,! Well congratulations this interviewer of to me gets the award for being the WORST one I've heard my heart goes out to this precious lady

[@cathy41463]

i find these stories so interesting and informing and heartfelt. but this interviewer was very rude.

[@katherinedorsey3426]

Eli Weisel, author of Night and Dr. Gisella Perl, famous Gynecologist were too from Sighet. There was a movie made about Dr. Perl, “Out of the Ashes.”

[@Vitagirl]

I totally agree with the comments referring to the so called interviewer .I UNDERSTAND THAT the subject matter needs to be thoroughly documented however most of these interviewers do not have the skill set to undertake such an important historical account .I have tried to get my children to listen to some of these accounts but they become annoyed and uninterested because of the stupidity of the interviewer. TO bad that they ruin an otherwise crucial learning experience

[@ladygagafans731165]

Very unprofessional interviewer. Sounds like interrogation. Then telling story. She wasn't given chance to talk

[@ladygagafans731165]

Too much interuption by inteerviewer....interviewer.... not hear her story

[@monatingbjr6636]

I think this interviewer is sweet and soft spoken

[@joziemolody3592]

I agree with everyone. The interviewer was rude. She kept inerrupting Joli, who was more than patient. The interruptions and constant questions of the interviewer made it difficult to follow her very important story. If you're going to conduct an interview in English, it is important to have an interviewer who speaks English clearly, which this interviewer can't always do.

[@janetblanc7658]

This I agree with. Her English is hard on the ears.

[@kevinwees3101]

I feel sorry for this surviver. They treated her very sadly.

[@salutiesse]

beautiful laugh xx- really loved her summative message x

[@Bajanantiguangyal]

This lady's a survivor not a German. Why are you grilling her like that?

[@emmaburgess4320]

God bless you and keep you and all your loved ones.. I cannot imagine the horrors you had to see and endure.. losing your mother on liberation day would have shaken my faith.. then your younger sister so close to your mother.. thank you for sharing your testimony!! We must always be on guard against tyrants and the mentality of us verses them.. we have to respect one another for our very lives depend on this ! Thank you!!!

[@hoomalumalu]

this interviewer doesn't give her a chance to talk

[@MarkEliasGrant]

Was there no vetting of who interviews in the mid 90s when most of these interviews were conducted? Shame on the person who selected the interviwers.

[@raycortopassi4030]

This is maddening. Let this woman talk ! Awful interrogator - not an interviewer. Rude and seems to question everything the woman says.

[@lindaali6703]

That's her job. I think she's doing fine!!!

[@susankim2118]

The interviewer did her job terribly! She should've improved her English before agreeing to take on her job! It is painful to hear her over and over in her depressingly heavy accent. She talked more than the interviewee and her questions were ignorant and irrelevant. The survivor's testimony was very interesting and that was the only reason why I stuck to the end despite the horrible interviewer.

[@raycortopassi4030]

I can't continue watching this poor woman being interrogated. The interviewer talks too much and is very annoying.

[@wandagorte8958]

I am ready to give up too. I know the interviewers are not professionals but this one can’t shut up!

[@leeclarkehealthandfitnessg2138]

Man this interviewer is so rude butting in I feel sorry for the woman being interviewed

[@joanmcnally4809]

I did not appreciate the interviewer, more like an interrogation.

[@cathygrant1164]

I just love her

[@shabbirbnadaf3186]

Interviewer is the 8th wonder of the world.....🤯 irritating, interrupting, unskilled, terrible body language, we couldn't even listen properly survivors story.

[@cindyhalpern3187]

I listened almost until the end. The Survivor had it rough. But this interviewer asked questions about the finances of organizations, and other things that distracted from the Survivor's story. The interviewer should have worked for the KGB or CIA, instead of asking this survivor questions like she did.

[@cindyhalpern3187]

The interviewer is asking questions that are not relevant. It distracts from the subject.

[@morilabelle7106]

Awful interviewer annoyed

[@jeffjohnson6687]

This interview just won’t shut up. The woman knows her story. Let her tell it.

[@margaretchadd7630]

I think Mandela was not a good looking as everyone says.....he might have dressed well but that’s about all....he was quite arrogant looking.

[@loonylinda]

I thought Joli was beautiful..but how she kept her temper with the interviewer i just dont know?...rude, impatient, she kept talking over joli and using interrogative attitude towards her...bad job.

[@susanstrang9159]

This interviewer is pushy and argumentative. She should invite the survivor to tell her story, not badger.

[@mrmoralman1]

What a great job interrogation 😂

[@cherylsumner5240]

Does this interviewer ever stop speaking over the delightful survivor? Her voice was so annoying...stopped watching after an hour because my BP was rising at her rudeness!

[@soundreign2319]

Omg this interviewer!!😰😰😰.

[@marigold67677]

Such a combative interview how awful!!
