  • Nothing made sense anymore to 14-year-old Agi Geva by the time she arrived at the Auschwitz-Birkenau killing center with her mother and sister. Still, it was unimaginable that the motion of a guard’s hand could decide whether she lived or died.
    Agi, her mother, and her sister ended up surviving four camps together-including Auschwitz twice-enduring forced labor and a death march before being liberated by American troops in April 1945.
    Hear Holocaust survivor Agi Geva’s experiences in her own words recorded on January 18, 2023. First Person is a monthly hour-long discussion with a Holocaust survivor that is made possible through generous support from the Louis Franklin Smith Foundation.

    Her mom used her intuition and critical thinking skills in a situation that was dire which is so important. In a situation like that fear can take over but her mom had a lot of courage.

    Ms Agi Gavi, my heart breaks for you for your most horrific journey in your life. Our Creator was with you throughout all the concentration camps that you were sent to. Adonai gave your mother the strength and wisdom to keep your family together. I am grateful that our American soldiers rescued all of the remaining survivors and treated you with the warmth and dignity that you deserved.
    I thank you for sharing your experiences during the Holocaust and l feel certain that Elie Wiesel’s realization that the world had to know about the horror of man’s inhumanity to man.
    May our Creator keep you safe and healthy for the remainder of your life’s mission.
    Shalom

    My father was there and he lived on the last Nazi base captured by the Americans when my grandfather was stationed there. He met my mom in Munich where he was going to college and he spoke of visiting the camp and falling to his knees in tears hearing and feeling the pain that was overtaken him and he said he maid an oath to never let it happen again. He said that many Germans said they never saw it coming. I wish Americans would look back on this horrific incident and open up their eyes
