This man should be nominated for the Noble Peace Prize.
Sadly, I’m not too sure he can. I think you have to be alive to be a Noble Prize in any category
Unfortunately they don’t give it to dead people
Right. Why has this gone overlooked for so long? I know about Schindlers list, but why don’t I know about this?
agree
Unfortunately the novel prize cannot be awarded posthumously.
When I lived in Japan, I read so many books about him, and he was my favorite historical figure at the time. I'm so glad that he's getting the recognition he deserved.
His eyes radiate compassion. How beautiful a steadfast human being is! The minds and hearts we need to know and and find the fortitude emulate.
@@patriciarouse16pleasss only one Japanese man did something nice. Well the rest of japd did not🙄.
no his "story" was a made up one to distract japan from their own atrocities.
I heard in Japan when he was still alive, none of his neighbors had any idea who he was until his funeral, when a large Jewish delegation including the Israeli Ambassador to Japan visited attended it.
He must have become much better known in Japan after that.
He was told no 3 times by his bosses yet his conscience made him choose a very brave and noble path. He and his family are a huge blessing to the world.
You can tell that God's hand was on those visas, that no one caught on they were not legal.
A wonderful human being. This world needs more people like him.
Righteous among the nations
Plus, you have to take into account he was part of a highly hierarchical society... Liberty and conscience were not part of the state's ideals
This man deserves a Netflix movie
It would make for an awesome movie
Several films have already been made about him, most notably the Oscar-winning 1997 short film "Visas and Virtue." PBS also made a full-length documentary about his life in 2000 called "Sugihara: Conspiracy of Kindness."
Amen.
My exact thoughts-I'd like to be that filmmaker.
I am saddened that he ended up homeless and penniless. He was a hero/national treasure and should have been treated like one.
"He has gifted countless people with life." A true humanitarian.
his "story" was a made up one to distract japan from their own atrocities.
A true hero who fought the Nazis' evil without a weapon, simply courage and compassion.
Our World hade been wicked since mankind start walking.
@@seanpetaia nope, when you started commenting in youtube
Japan, Nazis, and Italy formed a coalition called Axis Powers to oppose the Allied Powers in World War II. As this Japanese saving thousands of Jews in Europe, at the same time Japanese military invasion killed millions of people in East Asia, including China, Philippines, Singapore, Burma, Indonesia, Papua Guinea, .....
Courage, compassion, and a sizeable pile of passports and sauf-conduits and official, diplomatic stamps.
They do say the pen is mightier than the sword
Growing up in The Bronx in the 50’s and 60’s, some of my neighbors were Holocaust Survivors. These stories of humanitarian acts in the face of adversity and repercussions need to be repeatedly told.
Same for me in Brooklyn in the early 60's. Never forgot the look on a smiling man's face when I was 5. I asked him what the fading purple numbers on his left arm were for. His face suddenly went blank and seemed to turn greyish. His lips moved slightly but no sound came out. He stared into empty space with watery eyes. It scared me and saddened me very much what I had done with my innocent question. I felt too shook and guilty to ask my parents about it. I think I looked a bit similar when I later learned what the numbers represented.
That all humankind never forget how quickly evil can expand and overcome decency.
Amen !.
@ibeetellingya5683 beautiful memory but sad. You were only 5 and didn't know. Imagine how an older soul felt when a child asks about a horrific experience
The world needs more humans like him. Deeply grateful for his existence.
I’ve read a lot about this person, he literally risked his life and saved thousands of Jews, it’s great to see he’s getting the appreciation he deserves, may his legacy live forever!!
I am originally from s.korea. My grandma worked as a maid for a japanese family during the japanese colonial period in korea. She said that the family treated her like she was their own daughter and took a good care of her and even trying to adopt her, saying that they want to educate her and offer her a better life. It didn't happen, but I am thankful for them for showing sympathy to a little girl whos poor and vulnerable from a colony.
That's a cool story. Did your grandma follow the Sugiharas from country to country or just in Korea?
@jamestk656 my bad. The japanese family I was talking about wasn't Sugihara family, different one. The family wanted to adopt my grandma but they realized that she needed to be with her family to be happy so just let her go back to her family.
She said the family took my grandma to her family for the last time before they take her to Japan, saw my grandma crying as she meets her mom realized how much my grandma missed her mom so decided to give up an adoption and the family left to Japan.
This type of story is very similar to my family’s experience I have heard. We are Japanese and my mother was born in South Korea at the same period of the history, when her entire family was in South Korea. My mother’s father worked there and had some Korean colleague but died there. When the war ended and my mother’s mother had to come back to Japan with her children all by herself, these Korean people around her were so kind to her like bringing some food and even offered to adopt my mom who were still too small to endure the situation, saying they promise to raise her as their daughter, send her to college for good education, give her a good life there. It didn’t happen, but my mom who has already passed way once said to me she sometimes fantasied what her life would have been like if she had been adopted and lived as a Korean speaking Korean :) She also said she vaguely remembered the Korean songs someone often sung for her as a toddler. We still have this family memory and are appreciative for the Korean people who were so kind to my grandma as a single mom with kids to survive the war to make it to return to Japan😊
I heard the president of Nisshin, Japanese noodle company had transfered their technology of " dried noodle" to Korea as free when he'd heard from a korean student there'd been tons of starved people. Dr. Nakamura didn't stop helping Afganistan agriculture till he was killed. Asian have generally are warm hearted, they like to help others.
Can you imagine the gravity of knowing your family owes their lives to a stranger with a visa stamp? A stranger who gave up his livelihood to help random people? It is mind blowing and I hope we all try to follow in his footsteps.
He did this at the expense of himself & his family. This is true courage under fire. Salute!
As Japanese American, I’m profoundly proud of him. ありがとうございます。🇺🇸🇯🇵🇮🇱
The hypocrisy is that the japanese were committing unspeakable atrocities against innocent Koreans around this time.
Please pass the Kushi Katsu
@@mailinglist2451 For example? What incidents are you talking about? I sincerely would like to know.
@@josephmedina6403 I love it too. 👍
@@MichikoP look up the so-called "comfort women"
NEVER AGAIN! Never FORGET! What this brave soul did to save so many lives is beyond being a hero. Thank you for sharing this important story.
People say about evil "There's nothing I could do." There's always SOMETHING you can do.
Never again and yet leftist collage students are calling for Jew extermination. Such a shame

Free Palestine
What about south east Asian peoples and east Asian especially china Nanjing massacre by japanese imperial force and in Korean human sciences torture by japanese scientists?
@@DreyEbk316yes ❤🇵🇸🇺🇸
I will not ever forget the story. I even contacted Netflix to encourage them to do a documentary as one comment stated. This story will stick with me.
I literally cried so much just now. So inspirational. As an Asian-American I am proud of this man who was so far from home and yet opened his heart and home to the Jews. ❤ inspires me that our actions have value and impact.
Please take that sentiment and use it to stop antisemitism wherever you hear or see it. I do the same for Asians. Your actions have more value and impact than you know.
I cannot speak for emotion; but, I am thankful in my heart. A brave man's truth never dies, it lives long after his death.
My Japanese husband told me about him. At the end, it takes too long to write and issue the visas so he made stamps to quicken the process. He was processing the visas until the last day he needs to evacuate. So he gave all those stamps, link and necessary tools to Jews so they can issue visas on their own.
However, he lost his job and prestige…
It appears he still endured the consequences like a saint.
He gained a greater prestige
What’s his opinion on war crimes?
日本の敗戦後に杉原氏が職を失ったのはこの人道的対応とは全く関係ありません。
戦時中、外務省職員は世界各地に赴任しており、すなわちスパイ活動も行っていた訳です。
連合国占領時期にそれらの余剰人員整理が行われて、上乗せした退職金支給を受けています。
当時の国に使える日本人の大半は同じ運命でした。
更に、杉原氏のビザ発給ではソビエトを通過する事は不可能であり日本に到着する事は出来ませんでした。
これは、日本のトップとソビエトのトップが裏で交渉して了解を得た証しです。
日本政府が許可した証しです。
その後、ドイツより抗議を受けましたが、日本政府は「凡ゆる人道的差別は許されない。」と回答しています。
That’s been debunked by Jewish researchers. Look up Jewish newspapers article on the subject. His visa was only 1 step as it on allowed transit through Japan but Japan required a final destination outside of Japan. A Dutch diplomat was instrumental in this story and Sugihara would’ve saved no one if it was not for the Dutch diplomat. Japanese nationalists have also fabricated the story about the punishment as there was no evidence found of it. Jewish researchers have criticized the Japanese government for exaggerating details of Sugihara’s actions.
I went to high school in Melbourne Australia away from home and I stayed by a family of which the father was saved by this visa. I know so many people alive because of what he did.
I just ordered his wife's book through our interlibrary system for our state. I've heard this story before, not in as much detail. It hurts my heart to know how he was mistreated and rejected by his people for some time following this amazing act. What an amazing man. I look forward to reading the book.
Do they have an English translation of the book I’d love to read it.
@@katieedsallreamy4756 Yes. That's what it is. They showed it briefly onscreen in the video. "Visas for Life" by Yukiko Sugihara
A man who threw away his job to save thousands of lives. A movie about his story would be epic!!
I don’t believe he threw away his life - he actually made his life truly count
I’d buy a ticket to see that movie if it’s ever made.
@@nw101971 please start writing checks to my holocaust granny
The song is by a Meiji era composer named Rentaro Taki, who unfortunately passed away very young of tuberculosis at only 23. It is called "Kōjō no tsuki" or "Moon over the Ruined Castle." As an extra note, as a Lithuanian Jew, I thank him deeply as he saved my Jewish brothers by taking a grave risk. He was truly selfless.
His was a beautiful life that gave lives to so many. Thank you for telling his story. His memory is indeed a blessing.
Unlike Oskar Schindler, who profited from his use of Jewish labor, Sugihara not only did not benefit but was effectively blacklisted for writing these visas as he was directly disobeying orders. This effectively ended his career and he did odd jobs for the rest of his life. Both men deserve recognition for saving thousands of Jews, yet for some reason Schindler is far more widely known. If that's because of the movie, then perhaps Sugihara's life also deserves a movie.
Because Schindler was WHITE. Schindler credited with saving 1,200 lives while this man credited with over 2,100 lives..... Yet Schindler got the credit. Go figure. WHITE Hollywood
He’s a much better version of Schindler for sure
Each of them did what they could to help, Schindler could not write visas like Sugihara, but he could hire them to work in his factories and try to keep as many of them alive as he could. Both of them did what they could to help protect innocent lives.
There are many others who have also done great deeds yet are not well known, very few people know who Irena Sendler is, yet she saved more than double the amount that Schindler did.
@@elenalizabeth
She (and with help from some people she knew) saved 2,500 people, or so the official records go.
It's more than Schindler did, maybe a bit more than what mr Sugihara did, but not "more than the double".
@@Briselance umm yeah it is more than double. Schindler is credited with having saved around 1200, Irena Sendler is credited with having saved 2500.
Basic math says that’s more than double (with 1200x2=2400, so 2500 is more than double).
As a human being --- not a Japanese, not a Jew, & not related to or friends with any persons involved --- this touched me deeply. This cemented my belief that SOME individual human beings, regardless of age, culture, time era... are born... NOT TAUGHT but are naturally born.... with a different & a much better calibrated moral compass than the rest of us...
I am watching this through tears. I can tell you thank you. This story will stick with me for a very, very, very long time.
Me too
I've briefly read about Chiune Sugihara before but I thought it cost him nothing. I didn't know his government told him not to and he ended up penniless on the street because of it. Can you imagine being the sole reason why thousands and generations of lives today exist because of you?
Mr. Sugihara said “I disobey the government so as not to disobey God”. This attitude cost his diplomatic career
明らかな間違いです。
映画、凡ゆる雑誌で杉原氏を英雄に讃えながら反日運動する者が多いからです。
彼が職を失ったのはこの人道的支援とは全く関係がありません。
当時の国に使える日本人の大半が戦後の余剰人員により職を失いました。
更に、杉原氏のビザ発給ではソビエト連邦を通過して日本には到着出来ません。
これは、表向きは隠して、日本政府とソビエト連邦が裏で交渉した結果です。
日本政府が許可して、神戸にて手厚く迎えています。
その後、日本政府にはドイツから激しい抗議ありました。
日本政府は「凡ゆる人種への迫害は許される者では無い。」と回答しています。
映画、ドラマなどには騙されないで下さい。
As a fellow human being I am inspired by the integrity and determination of
this man and the generations that follow in the footsteps of his generosity of spirit. And all the beautiful people everywhere who live to tell the tale of freedom a whole life depends.
What a wonderful man. When I hear such stories, I always ask myself if I would have been an up- stander or a bystander. Could I have risked my own family's well being for others? For total strangers? This man and his wife were so admirable. Truly noble. We must never forget this man!
I confess I don’t think I’d have that kind of courage
True definition of a hero: risking all in his world, to save others.
History books around the globe should include him & the many others like him, as an example to all.
I am crying. What a hero
We need a Netflix documentary on this man!
Yes!
After “Shogun”, “Sugihara”… 😄
Several films have already been made about him, most notably the Oscar-winning 1997 short film "Visas and Virtue." PBS also made a full-length documentary about his life in 2000 called "Sugihara: A Conspiracy of Kindness."
I couldn’t find the first one available, but the second one is available in Prime to rent. I’m going to try and watch them in the new future. It’s definitely an amazing story about an incredible human being.
I admire the concept, I fear that it turns into a documentary series about a family of Black Jews who immigrated from Ethiopia for a better life in Lithuania only for their hopes and dreams to be dashed by war and the persecution of racial minorities under a regime that idealized manliness and European purity. Meanwhile Chiune Sugihara gets a fawning token shoutout every episode but appears only halfway through the show.
I read about him many years ago. So awesome to see a report on him.
Wonderful man. I am moved deeply for what he did.
What a heroic man!
Imagine what they would have done if he was caught !
Known as the Japanese Schindler even though he saved more people. He who saves one life is as if he has saved the entire world.
So Schindler is the German him.
The real quote is: "He who saves one life saves the world entire"
The way you wrote it is a bit weird
Even more impressive and brave than Schindler, I would say. Sugihara saved thousands of more Jews than Schindler, yet Hollywood has never made a movie about him.
I will teach about Mr. Sugihara's legacy of selfless love for his fellow man. What a story!
I’m
Trying to add the Chinese Schindler also
BLESS his PRECIOUS heart
Brought tears to my eyes every time I hear this story. I hope these descendants will reach out and help others who are helpless to change their situations.
He was an upstanding human being. I hope good fortune goes back to his family.
The choice- his heart or his mind. He chose his whole heart.
He used both. He knew it would cost him but knew it was the right thing to do.
the choice wasn't between the mind and the heart, as that would mean inner conflict. The choice was between what's right and what's wrong and he chose to stand for the right ideals.
This is amazing! I have never heard this story before. Thank God for men like Mr. Sugihara.
It is not easy to look beyond one’s self interest and yet he and his family did. Their bravery and selflessness helped many people then and now. A rare example of human compassion in the face of adversity. ❤
This is the definition of the Japanese
spirit. What a beautiful legacy!
ehhhh in the asian theater, its quite the opposite, during that war period. the spirit is savagery, sugihara was no doubt exceptional for his time.
Take a deeper look at what the Japanese did in WWII. The most disturbing crimes ever committed by human beings that has being overshadowed and forgotten by two bombs
Jewish scientists in US developed nuclear weapons to use against Japan, which saved Jews.
Jewish Virtual Library:
_the Japanese were pressured by the Germans to do something about the Jewish communities under their control....Yet, the Japanese refused to go along with the German demands._
@@daeseongkim93heroism from their perspective, not savagery.
@@marimarihosp3035Jewish scientists developed the bomb and killed tons of innocent civilians in Japan, most of whom were Christians as Nagasaki and Hiroshima was the Christian capital of Japan at the time.
His story needs to be made into a Hollywood movie especially since the Japanese were on the side of the Axis. What an incredible man!
The Allied didn't admit independence of their Asian colonies even after Japan was defeated.
There's another story similar to this one - John Rabe and the lives he saved in Nanjing.
@marimarihosp3035 irrelevant lol.
Well, Jewish scientists in America developed atomic weapons to use against Japan, which saved Jews.
Jewish Virtual Library:
the Japanese were pressured by the Germans to do something about the Jewish communities under their control...Yet, the Japanese refused to go along with the German demands.
To risk so much when he did not have to. What a great man!
A man of boundless compassion, who chose to do what was right amidst such evil. May his memory continue to live on.
This nobel man definitely deserves more recognitions in the world!!
Thank you for sharing this story on this super human being!! We need more people like him, especially with all that is going on. He is a super hero! 🦸🏻♂️
This story needs to be shared, especially in these divisive times we're living in.
A beautiful story about a real hero
This man is truly heroic.. Saving the lives of defenseless people but risking his own .. His descendants can be proud of what he did unlike the descendants of those who committed crimes against helpless people
I was lucky enough to have met an elderly woman in Vancouver BC who was given a visa by Mr Sugihara. Her passport was on display at the Jewish Holocaust museum in Vancouver BC. She was so lovely and kind and so full of life. I was so honoured to have met her.
What a wonderful story, and a great man and his family who risked it all to help others.
A movie should be made about this incredible man. God bless this man of valor and compassion!
Thank you, Mr. Sugihara. ❤️
I’m also impressed by seeing his granddaughter’s yellow ribbon for the hostages.
He was a HERO! A true human being.
What a great man❤️ it’s so
Amazing that the survivors don’t forget him❤️❤️
A beautiful soul. As was/are his family members.
Wow! What a great humanitarian achievement! So glad to know that the Jewish survivors are truly grateful. Thanks for the up load.
If more people have a heart and mind like this, maybe there is no war, people will feel safe and peaceful in their country where they are born and grow up
There is no accolade high enough to pay homage to the courage and moral integrity of this man. Thank you sir.
Sugihara is a shining example of the "Righteous Among the Nations"
We can call learn from this act of humanity especially in times like today...
Even behind enemy lines, there is always a person with a good heart.
A beautiful humane being who risked it all to save so many. Bless you Ambassador you are a man of honor.
You are loved and respected ❤️
What an amazing story. Odd this isn’t well known. I don’t recall history lessons on it. He deserves to be recognized. A true hero.
I've heard of such a man but never knew the story. I would really like someone like a Spielberg to tell this mans story like that of Shindler.
What a wonderful story!!! Brave people who took a stand because it was the right thing to do. Wow! God will continue to bless his family now and forever.
Wow. You learn something everyday. Amazing guy.
I’m actually so glad RUclips recommended this ❤
This deserves a TV series or movie
Beautiful man.
Wow, I read this man's story when I was in high school. A true hero!
Wow. That gentleman was a hero to man. Stories like these is what needs to be shared.
True good human being. It’s just sad he ended up losing his job & become poor for doing the right thing… of saving lives. Sugihara’s kindness lives on. Salute
Humanity at it’s finest! 🙏
Lets not forget that this is what ‘hatred’ in the mind, soul and heart can do to another….let’s also remember what love, kindness and compassion can do also…💕💐
Wow I have never heard of him before, truly an inspiring piece of history of such a great man 👍.
Brave and wonderful family, it's too bad those he helped did not know when he needed it the most, any and all of those people would have taken him in
What a legacy. That man has saved people who don’t even exist yet.
God bless you, Mr. Sugihara…thank you for everything you did for those people. 🙏🏻♥️
This needs to be made into a movie! ❤
There's a movie about him with the English title "Persona Non Grata." It stars Toshiaki Karasawa, an actor who is very well-known in Japan and who has also narrated documentaries on the Holocaust for Japanese TV.
Wow what a beautiful man he was and look at HIS legacy! So many beautiful lives that would not be here if it wasn’t for this loving man with a huge heart and conscience. Something so sadly lacking in many humans now. Not all but many.
This made me tear up. What a wonderful, kind man. He deserves an entire movie
A nice report. Very emotional. Profound.
A truly accomplished human being ❤
Such a BEAUTIFUL story!!
Sugihara was a great man! He did what so many others would not.
What an honourable man, richly deserves his place on the “Righteous among the nations” list.
That's amazing he and his family helped save over 10,000 Jewish People.
Thanks for the history.
This is remarkable! When I learned about the holocaust the only man people would talk about who saved Jews was Oscar Schindler but now I know a completely different person who deserves as much praise respect and honor as him and that is Chiuni Sugihara God bless your soul and your family and THANK YOU 🙏 for saving those Jews lives
Amazing man!
Thank you for this wonderful story !
AMAZING 🤩 I taught this precious story in school. Thank you for bringing attention to this wonderful piece of history 🥹🏆
This is touching 🥹 His family must be so proud. Such an example of honor and humanity, for all and forever.
What a brave man! We need to keep their stories alive!!!
We don't have to be friends nor enemy, or have the same or different ideologies.
Just compassion for preserving Life.
And, that is present in all of us.
So does with Mr. Sugihara.
Salute to a hero of pure compassion. 🇯🇵🇺🇸🇮🇱.

This is what we should be seeing on national news instead of the garbage they show daily
