Against All Odds: Born in Mauthausen with Eva Clarke
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 30 июн 2018
- What does it mean to be born in a concentration camp, arguably one of the most inhospitable places on earth? Eva Clarke was one of three “miracle babies” who saw the light of day in KZ Mauthausen in Austria. Nine days after her birth, the Second World War ended. As a newborn, Eva’s chances of survival were extremely slim; against all odds, she lived, making her and her mother Anka the only survivors of their extended family. In 1948, they emigrated from Prague to the UK and settled in Cardiff, Wales. Eva regularly addresses audiences, and her remarkable story has been featured in the British and American media. She and her mother are among the protagonists of Wendy Holden’s book Born Survivors: Three Young Mothers and their Extraordinary Story of Courage, Defiance, and Hope (Harper, 2015).

It just is incredible how a 3lb baby born to a starving mother managed to survive. I'm so glad she did.
Even more incredible is that they built a maternity on a death camp, now that's a true miracle.
To think her mum was not just able to survive but grow a healthy baby whilst undergoing such immense stress, starvation, lack of hygiene etc is amazing. Just goes to show the miracle of the human body and spirit. Such a horrific story for her family you couldn't imagine anything worse if you tried. I can't believe this took place just eighty years ago and at the hands of other human beings.
Thank you for motivating us to be better people!
Not too bright tho’ … subject the baby to that.
Humans have done that for thousands of years or do u see supermarkets and hospitals in our past
My third child was born prematurely and weighed 4 pounds. He seemed so tiny and helpless, but he received excellent care in the hospital and is fine now. I cannot even begin to imagine giving birth to a 3 pound baby on a cart in a concentration camp with (very) limited medical help. The fact that the baby survived, and eventually thrived, is such a testament to the bravery of her mother. It is amazing what love can do in desparate circumstances.
The farmer who gave her mother a glass of milk...Eva said her mother said that probably saved her life. How powerful one simple gesture of humanity can be. 💕
Every time I leave the house, I try to do or say something helpful or encouraging to at least one person. It's not hard to see which are stressed and sad, and the expressions on their faces is often surprise that someone is actually just being nice to them. We should all be farmers giving glasses of hope to the people that are being eaten alive by life nowadays. One day we will all need that Milk...
@@rescuepetsrule6842 Well said...thank you.
@@irenec2863 You are so welcome. I have to DO something, even on a tiny scale, after listening to how rotten people can be.
I believe God kept her alive just so she could offer this incredible witness to future generations. Bless her.
@@sherglovier3393 Many survivors fought to live for just that reason.
Her mother was a strong woman. Unbelievably strong. I wish I could have heard her speak.
theres video on yt of her mother speaking
@@Lauren-vd4qe Do you know what the YT title is? Thank you...
@@medinatabor6492 no i dont sorry
She actually does, thru her beautiful and accomplished daughter.
“Not a joke”! 🤦🏼♀️
My dad was with the 11th Army that liberated Mauthausen Prison Camp. I am SO proud that he was part of those that set so many survivors free. Glad that you were one of those
so that you could give is such a stirring first-hand account of what you and your family lived through. God blest your mother with the strength of her spirit.
Both my parents lived through the Second World War. My mother was born in Alsace-Lorraine in 1922 where she met my father after the war in her hometown. He had been a soldier in the Italian army .He was taken as a political prisoner for two years in a town in Germany, Salzgitter. To this day, I have kept his I.D. card : Arbeit mit Frei. Both lived to be very old; my father was 99 and a half when he passed in 2015 and my mother lived until she was 98 years old 2020.
I am so happy that your parents did survive. I hope they could enjoy their lives and come over bad memories and experiences during WW2.
I was born near to Salzgitter/ about 20 km away/ and it makes me still sad and a numb feeling about what horrible things had happen through German people in that time. It also makes me angry and disappointed that only so few people in that time were acting actively against the Hitler / Nazi - Regime.
I wish your parents didn't have nightmares at the end of their lives and I wish that you and your family/near friends will have a rich, healthy and fulfilling life.
With love from Berlin,
Maren
I’m glad that her story is being recorded. Because before too long all those who lived through the Holocaust and lost family members won’t be here anymore. We need to keep passing these stories around so people learn from the past. Thank you for your story
I totally agree with you, because I heard somewhere that there is someone saying that it didn't happen . . . WELL IT DID HAPPEN
I SAVED AND I WOULD LIKE TO SHARE IT WITH MY FAMILY AND FRIENDS??? But I don't know if I would be needing approval from the author???
@@junesorenson279 The share feature is available.
I did pass it to my d.i.l.
And I promised myself I'd never talk about my back labor with no epidural ever again.
Incredible story, her Mother was a very courageous woman. I have visited Mauthausen, Terezin and Dachau. As painful as it is to visit these places, it is our duty to do so as a reminder to what these poor people endured.
These people will be you and I any day
By visiting these places, I would think one would be strengthened to tell the stories generation to generation. Keep these stories alive.
My dad was one pf the American soldiers that freed those prisoners in Mauthausen Prison Camp. Dad never talked about that experience. I only learned about that in his obituary. I recently saw a war documentary about that camp and how horrendous that event was for both soldiers and prisoners alike.
Shes a very talented confident and strong woman 💜 god bless her 💗💕😁
What a beautiful, intelligent, courageous woman.
Eva Clark is the best presenter I have ever seen. She's very pleasant, she speaks to you as if your in her living room, she gets the audience involved, and she's very honest. Love her.
She is a practiced performer,
She's classy, elegant, self-possessed. She turned out like her description of her mother.
@BrinnaBochinara SBragia TROIA Why? Do you think Janet Abbey is denying the holocaust? I'm not sure that's clear from her reply, but I don't wanna engage a possible holocaust denier. One of my closest friends is Jewish and I don't trust myself to respond.
@Amiée Dorian bo
@@LadyhawksLairDotCom Janet is possibly trying to say that because Eva has given this presentation so many times she feels comfortable with it? Regardless, I agree with you and Debbie - Eva is one amazing woman and I was absolutely riveted by this.
I can't understand why there are so few views of this video. This woman is amazing and is relaying a family history that we all need to hear. I was unable to stop watching from the minute she started talking...she IS a miracle.
Because, people don't want sad of unhappy videos. What they don't accept, however, is that by choosing to ignore this history, they are encouraging it to happen again. Even "doing nothing" is a choice, and not always with a good outcome.
We must all watch and listen closely and never allow such a horrific thing to ever happen again anywhere in the world!!
How old is she?? I mean she was born weighing 3 pounds and probably without any mother milk for a long time.
Maybe because our comments are getting deleted.

I love this story and how you told it. My grandfather was in the 11th Armored Division that liberated Mauthausen and I love hearing stories from the people whom he saved. It gives me more of an idea of how the liberation happened and how everyone felt.
My father was there too with the 11th armored division
My father-in-law was there also...
My Italian grand father Wao Onésimo of them!!! He Wao a formar Marine Commander in Chief, and bad to surrender against his len Country when Mussolini alied with Hitler. Thanks from the bottom of my heart. They say Circumstances in life are inheritable. I live under the Dictatorship of Nicolás Madurai, down in Venezuela. I am able to keep on living here maintaining a good living standard, but this dictator here, Kim YoUn in Korea, etcetera, are proof that evil is present among the former society of the world and that it is accepted. Let’s pray for future generations, not to have to endure things like these! Thanks over and over and over!!!
My dad was there too, 11th armored.
Part of the 3rd Army. Quite a story you must have to share, and how wonderful for the people who were alive at the camp in early May of 1945.
She is so elegant and composed. Respect.
I could listen to her for hours. Her story is amazing and horrific yet she says it with such elequent retelling. Bless her and her point family. Shalom 🇮🇱🇮🇱God Bless 💗♥️her and those who persisted unnecessarily 😢
What if she wasn’t? Is that what makes you respect her?
An amazing woman for sure. ❤️
Yes. And she is a striking woman
@@kathymyers7279.She cares so deserves to respected for what she is doing. Not just for looks
She reminds me of my sister's mother in law. She was an elegant, kind lady who married an American rabbi working with the American government to help the refugees from the camps. She never wanted to talk about it, she hid the tattooed numbers on her arm... until she was interviewed for her Holocaust experiences and urged to write a book. She did... Lala's story. 💞 Love to all of you.
And to you, too.
How there are 210 people that give this video a thumbs down is beyond my comprehension. Thank you for sharing your amazing life story of survival!
believe it or not, there are those that question whether the holocaust ever took place... (quite a lot actually/unfortunately)
Well then you obviously did not notice one of the main lessons of her narrative.
It has now become 316 thumbs down.... Unbelievable
@@jayapillai6466 if only that was the absolute number...
Perhaps just a reaction to the Holocaust in general? Idk…
I’m a little late to the party but I have never heard a more eloquent speaker in my life. And one who speaks of such a horrible time in the history of the world I such a manner that it really breaks your heart to hear what her mother and her family went thru. God bless Eva Clark.
What a beautiful woman. She was born in hell on Earth and healed by Love. What a gift that she tells her story to teach us this horrible truth.
I am so amazed at how well she spoke about this most horrific event in man's history . I was so transfixed on every word and my heart broke at every word. Her mother was so strong and very determined to survive. Thank you so much for sharing this with us.
Well said.
Wonderful speaker. She is a voice for those who have no voice. She tells a story so well which captures your attention the whole way through. She did learn English very well!!
My exact thoughts and feelings. What a beautiful graceful woman. God bless Her and her family.
The thing that got to me is the fact that she said that the person writing the letter which was sent out written bread was already dead before it even got out.
⁰p⁰
Eva's story is riveting and touched the depths of my heart. I just finished the book, The Ravine, A Family, A Photograph, A Holocaust Massacre Revealed. I work at the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum and each Survivor's story still pulls at my heart and conscience and the inhumanity suffered.
This was was so special. Thank you. My mom and I attended a talk from a survivor many years ago.he was a young teen during his time in a camp.He said he lost all of hi family. I was a young woman then. I imagine he is gone now. Your stories are heart felt. This world now must hear these stories. Again.
This needs to be shown at every middle and high school
Wow. What a story. And I just love the way this lady told her stoy
Her voice is soothing. She seems like a lovely lady.
I was lucky enough to meet a WWII survivor in High School as well, and she was also an excellent speaker. She made her story so engaging and lively, despite its grim nature. And she also found a way to connect it to our present, talking about everyday troubles like how the girls in the camps wished they could wear a bra (as opposed to us not wanting any). I'm glad there is a recorded version of this lady's storytelling. There will never be a better way of learning about such tragic events as through the victims themselves.
Getting ready for the next chapter!!
Thats because 90% of it is BS
@@peterstevenson2237 why do you say this?
Thankyou for sharing your mother’s life with us. I visited Mauthausen as a young Australian tourist in 1973, we all cried when we saw how absolutely dreadful this place was and hearing your story reminds us to learn from this and not let it ever happen again but as you said at the end of your talk, although done differently, it is still happening in places around the world unfortunately
Australia is one of them. Look a little deeper and you will see the evil lurking…
I remember listening to her talk at my school. The room was full of 13-16 year olds who were normally quite disruptive but you could literally hear a pin drop as she spoke. She tells the story so well and I enjoyed hearing it again 20 years later.
Your mother is absolutely amazing. I'm not sure I've ever heard a second hand account of anyone that courageous.
I am speechless. The bravery of this woman and her mother the optimism of her mother should envelop all of us. We’re in the middle of a pandemic. I’m sitting right now in Maryland United States. I’ve basically been in lockdown since March of last year. But my story is only made me more strong because of stories like this woman’s. Please be safe everyone and God bless
This horror shouldn't happen to any human. She survived but the threat and hated still on. All over the world to Jews.
Reason???
@@ashokanvilvanathan3431 ¹
I hope you are doing ok.... I'll pray for you 🙏
@@ashokanvilvanathan3431 Unfortunately people learn to hate because of lies and fears. For years the excuse not to let slave free in the USA would be that they would kill all the White's. Well most people who where supporting slavery knew that was not true and it had to do with power, control and greed. But the uneducated could be easily fooled. When you have a Representative from FL even today talking about Jewish space lasers starting fires in CA and Western states just shows how important education is and to stop using religion as a way the separate people. Every ism is about lumping a group of people together and then saying everyone in that group is the same. It is like saying Black people murder people. Well some do and so do White's. But a racist will just make a few people who do something they may not agree with and then lump everyone in that group as the same even if that group has millions of people and range considerably depending on how they were raised, where they live, ect. We need to understand we are all humans who share most things but at the same time we are all different and each have something different to add.
Same to you.
Eva Clark and her sweet Mom are amazing. The younger generation need to hear these accounts of what happened. Thank you for sharing. God bless you Mrs. Clark.
Wow. What a powerful story and she relayed it so well. She is so proud of her mother as she should be!
Absolutely amazing,,,
She is an incredible human and an even more incredible story teller. We cannot forget the horrors of the Holocaust. The survivors have a strength and candidness that absolutely astounds me.
Oh my god. I literally clapped when she stopped speaking. What a beautiful captivating lady she is! And talk about against all odds! All that time they could have been killed, and they survived. What an absolutely strong lady her mother must have been.. No words to describe the infernal hell they went through or the indomitable will that burned in their hearts to live.
Her mother was an amazing person. What strength. I am amazed that she communicated so openly with her daughter about such horrific experiences.
I am very touched by this. I live in Linz, near Mauthausen, and we go to the liberation ceremonies every year to commemorate and honour all the people and families who had to go through the hell of Holocaust.
She and her mother are /were so lovely.
Rest In Peace to all who endured and suffered through those horrendous atrocities.
I’m so glad I was able to hear this story. I was so happy when she showed us the last picture.
People like you are historic TREASURES. I'm so thankful you were able to give not only your family but every holocaust survivor a voice and testimony to the most horrific event in human history. Thank you!
I’m sharing under historical treasure perfect words thank you
There were a lot more horrific events in the past and still going on today. It is not because it isn't mediatized as much as the shoa that they aren't happening and they are not at all less horrific.
@@sloeberdoet More horrific than being gassed? More horrific than losing everything you own, your freedom, your entire family?! What is more horrific than genocide?
@@americaneskielover Read your history . There were far more genocides even later in history that were as atrocious as gassing . What about cutting arms and women's breasts and legs with machetes? What do you prefer?But hey that weren't jews so yes i guess the suffering of a jew is worth more than the suffering of other human beings.
@@sloeberdoet AS ATROCIOUS, not more!! Prefer? Starved to death, gassed, shot, tortured? What do you mean prefer? The few that survived had little or no family left! Genocide is genocide. smh She's not talking about history, she's talking about HER history. What SHE lived. A Jew suffering is THIS story !! She's not claiming she suffering is worth more, she's telling her story. What a thing to say, after all that these people suffered and lost. smh
Thank goodness Eva's mother was a survivor. She definitely got through coz of her youth and vitality, luck, but more than anything stoicism and determination. So amazing she was pregnant, carried her baby full term, and both survived in such horrific circumstances.
What a lady Eva's mother was, wow!
Very well done. I have just sent it to my Jewish friend, who lost most of her family. I was born & brought up in Wales, my husband went to Cardiff University. I trained as a nurse. We came to live in South Africa 45yrs ago. Thank you so much for sharing your story.💝 .
I come fromJersey in the Channel Islands and my maternal grandfather left to join the army fighting in Burma 6 months before the occupation. Luckily my grandmother left and went to London for the duration of WW2 as any resident with a family member in the armed forces were automatically sent to Europe and a concentration camp upon the Germans occupying the Channel Islands. This is one of the most moving documentaries I have seen. Amazing woman with a incredibly brave mother. Very moved
Thumbs down ????? How???? I am going to give humanity the benefit of the doubt and say that the 👎 is to all the suffering and pure evil that went on , and NOT a 👎to this woman ‘s story and courageous mother who fought for life. I could listen to these stories all day and especially this woman with her elegance and grace. So I give it 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
People are just strange.... Really strange the thumbs down are probably the ignorant racists, holocaust deniers
Thank you for your articulate and moving telling of this terrible time. We often wonder how we would cope in that time. “Don’t let the bastards get you down” Such bravery. It makes it real and personal.
Unbelievable story. All I can think of was what a amazing and strong women her Mother really was to go though all that and then having a baby under unbelievable odds and make though for herself and her child. There is so much to learn when we listen ( instead judge ) to other sorrows and joys.
Thankyou Eva!
She totally had me engaged in her story from beginning to end. Brilliantly recounted.
Who can ever fathom the horror, the evil mindset of the perpetrators & all done so systematically?
So glad she & her mother survived and had a good life despite it all.
But the perpetrators were NOT UNIQUE bystanders bullies & victims all participated, you would have too if that was your home at that time. Do not think they were any different than you. You are also a benign complacent witness to your culture, thats the thing about the holocaust, you act like those Nazi were unique? They were NOT. If you do not understand that you are doomed to repeat it. Wish people understood that - so then they could truly avoid a repeat. The way we have shut down free speech & attack conservatives with their disgust & contempt against anyone who does not think like them (they r thinking a little like nazi’s) that is how stuff begins. The minute people demonize that population but blind to their own shadows - they haven’t learnt a thing !
@@Fefe559 Sorry, but I feel contempt in your message tone. What makes you assume that ordinary people are all mindless idiots who only follow the crowd? Not true, as history has proven!
Amazing story - beautifully told. We must never forget how easy it is for a supposed civilised country to take the wrong path and be capable of such atrocities. My regards from a fellow Cardiffian.
Wales is being destroyed by ‘the little man on the podium.’ We are being manipulated and controlled without compassion or human kindness.
So heartbreaking with such a touching ending. The lady makes an eloquent point-why hate anyone who has done you no harm?
What an incredible beautiful lady. Her mom was a beautiful strong woman.
Same. I stayed up late to watch.
This is a very moving account of such a grim horrible time. Very articulate, she communicates well a story that could serve as a warning. This could happen again should we not heed the signs. Thank you for telling your story. Mankind needs to need to hear it.
This is happening again.
Exactly..it worries me, democrats attacking republicans, sad, the country that helped liberate her mother & they turn on each other.
I read the book "Born Survivors" which tells the stories of 3 women who had children in concentration camps. Eva's mother, Anka, was one of the women in that book. An amazing story
I was so transfixed during this entire talk. Amazing your mother and you survived at all. That's why the story is spoken and carried forward. Surviving is the first reason and second is for those who didn't. Pray God will give us all eternal peace one day, which is only in heaven.
It’s amazing to me that her mother was so willing to share her memories of the camps & her experience.
Mauthausen was one of the most terrible and harshest concentration camps, so be born in that hell was a real challenge. And this story is powerful and interesting, and we must never forget, what other people can do to other people
Tell that to the Palestinians
So much intelligence empathy pouring out of thos lady's mouth
Such grace class
A story told without any trace bitterness
Even she tells her own personal family's story
She still gives recognition to the whole Holocaust population
Updated the urgent&ever present need to remember we must never forget learn forgivenrss&guard against repeition
What aMOTHER she had😇so optimistic
Now l understand the meaning of
"LEST WE FORGET" 🤗😇
WELSH ACCENT IS DEFINITELY THERE
Love her to bits😀😍😊

@@willoughby1888 VERY insightful post. Thx so much for sharing your thoughts.
There is a greek song that relates a story of a greek prisoner, who helped another prisoner during their slave labour in the death camp mauthausen, that miki theodorakis wrote the music to!!! It is a song/music that fills you with horror and immense hope. I used to listen to it when i was younger.
Who gave this a thumbs down? What a lovely lady. (She must in her 70s but her skin is amazing...that seems a pointless thing to say but she's glowing.)
I found this video by chance, but I’m so glad that I did! Eva is a wonderful orator, capturing my attention from the very first moment! Talking about her Mothers experience, brings the reality home for everyone. How she survived, I’ve really no idea, pure strength of character and love for her baby, I imagine!! I feel really privileged to have seen this video!
Thank you for sharing your powerful story! We must never forget!
I agree....
We must not, and yet there was news coverage of some young teenagers on a trip to Auschwitz, posing for pics on the railroad tracks! Breaks my heart.
@@wendyb6446 they also asked teens in GERMANY about the holocaust and quite a few had no idea what they were talking about.
Unfortunately, contrary to all the evidence that exists, there are a growing number of revisionists and deniers who are determined to destroy historical facts because they are inconvenient truths that destroy and expose their owners own evil and twisted anti-Semitic mindsets!
Thank you. I was born in labor camp 8 days after the war ended. may 22 45
One thing that really struck me was when she spoke again and again that no one knew the scale of the horror they would be facing - that they thought if they kept a low profile, it would be fine.
That is a lesson that many can learn from history - that the greatest horrors never start out extreme, and we cannot let the current intolerances make a repeat of the past.
👍👏👏👏👏✌
I am here quite a while after this was first posted, but it is such a staunch reminder of what terrible things human beings can do to each other. It is also a reminder of the incredible stories that are slowly fading with the loss of our world's greatest generation. Thank you for sharing such a painful, yet wonderful story from WWII. These are the stories that need to endure and live on for future generations. History should never be forgotten.
Spellbinding and inspiring story of her mother's perseverance, told by one of the best speakers I've ever heard, on any topic.
Compelling. A story of love, horror, tragedy and survival. I was transfixed to the end.
Loved her story telling style- I was hanging on every word she spoke- completely captivated- much respect
What an incredible speaker. I followed every word she spoke with bated breath, taking everything to heart, and allowing her story the weight and emotion it truly deserves. I shed tears each time her voice cracked and smiled when she shared good news. By the end, I felt like I knew her family; especially her dear mother.
It's rare for someone to move someone else with mere words. Eva Clark has the gift.
Very interesting and inspirational. What a lovely lady and what a terrible time and place in history she went through. It makes me feel good to know she is telling the world so hopefully we all never forget that he’ll. My mother was 17 and Hungarian back then and she told me of terrible things she experienced. I wouldn’t be here today if she wasn’t strong willed and determined.
I'm so sorry she experienced that horror.
An incredible presentation of factual history as it impinged on one family. I met on a US plane some years ago a holocaust survivor. A woman I will never forget. She showed me her tattoo and yet also in telling me of her death march described the officer in charge as a "good nazi" because he always made sure they had a slice of bread every day. Her judgement perspective was so forgiving I felt humbled to have had the privilage of a short flight conversation with her.
oh dear, this lady gotta be so strong or able to detach herself compleatly to not cry. I am called coldhearted but dang I cried several times listening to her.
Very teary at the end. Incredible story of her mothers survival and so well told.
‘Stand up straight, be proud to be Jewish’ words to live by, REGARDLESS of color, creed, socioeconomic standing, religious affiliation, sexuality, or gender. Be proud and lead with love
Beautifully said 👏

Love is not proud
This could be used in any age/time as so many people including myself, have low self esteem because of one of many reasons.
Listening to Eva Clark was incredible. The journey of her beautiful family and the horror that they endured was gut renchingp
Wow, what an incredible story of survival, resilience, and triumph over evil. I will never forget Eva or her presentation. Thank you!
What a powerful story. We must never forget... world must never forget. My mother is german 95 years old now...Thank you Ava for telling us your family story...X
How can anyone give this video a thumbs down? What an amazing survival story, what an amazing family story. Thank you for sharing your story. Never forgotten
If you've read some of the comments, you will see why. Some very disgruntled people in this world - I wonder how they would have survived in Eva's mother's place.
@@sheilaboston7051 It's this kind of insensitive comment and disregard to other peoples feelings that allow you to think that others are disgruntled. What happened during WW2 was an atrocity but it wasn't the first and unfortunately won't be the last. People will find the will to survive. The story of the Jews is no better or no worse than many others. There are many different nations still suffering from Genocide, racism still going on and yet few Jews speak speak on or up for them. Many people have become turned off by always having to hear the "story of the Jews" as if their story is the end all to be all. There are many others and some have stories that are just as bad if not worse but we are not hearing and publicizing their story.
Amazing will to live. A mother's love is strong.
Heartbreaking story i can't explain how I feel after listening to her. My parents are from India migrated to America in 1984, this was the 1st time they ever heard about the death camps & how the nazi treated Jewish people. My parents heard stories but didn't think they were true,
Sweet Jesus I can't believe how people can do things like that to other people😢🥺😭
research Klaus Schwab's plan...it frightens me that we could be actually reliving these horrors
Thank you for sharing your story. I've heard similar stories many times but each one is poignant and deserves to be heard, learnt from and remembered. My father survived a camp - I remember as a small child asking my dad how he got the scar on his thigh - he replied he had not 'schnelled' fast enough when told to move. It was a bayonet scar. Yet although he spent 3 years in a concentration camp - one of the first families he befriended on the ship on which we were migrating to Australia was a German family. He always distinguished between Germans / Wehrmacht and the Nazis.
I read her book and it was great. A lot of sorrow and pain. God bless her and her strong mother.
Wow Her mother was a superwoman!! Her strength and endurance during the last part of the war enabled her and baby Eva to survive to the end
Eva thank you very much... I am a gipsy from Romania, and some members of my family was also killed in those cams...again Thank you very much...
She is a wonderful speaker-presenter. I could listen to her all day.
Eva Clark is a miracle. Her & her mother's story is so sad & amazing.
This is so amazing! I never thought that any babies would have been able to be born and how her mother was able to keep her.
What an eloquent speaker and beautiful lady! Thank you for sharing your story.
To hear and see with you own ears and eyes is so important.
Thank you for your willingness to present your personal story.
Every school student in Germany visits a former Konzentration camp at least once during his/her school years.
Our son visited Neuengamme in 8th grade and Dachau two weeks ago in 13th grade.
Thank you for this. Deeply intelligent, beautifully articulate - and born in Mauthausen. Wow. One needs to think really hard about what her entire family went through. It could happen again.
Thank you so much for sharing this story, I have never listened so intently to every word before. So glad that you and your mother survived but heart broken for all the millions of people that didn’t. We must never forget them.❤️
Her courage shines like an everlasting star in the darkest night of the soul. Blessings abundant. Elaine Milner Hailsham UK
Amazing history. Your Mother was immensely courageous and mentally strong. You I’m sure would have inherited these values.
I was captivated with Eva, I didn’t moved the entire time I watch her presentation.
I am so happy she told her story.
Even with the museum the talks like Evas and all the other... Sometimes I worry people will forget what happened and how all of it started.
The last four years, I worried.
Remarkable story of one family's journey and fate through unrelenting evil, as told by an exceptional and mesmerizing speaker!
She is an Exquisite beauty and historian an I feel so lucky to have heard her story in her own voice. I’m weeping.
Ordinarily I find it hard to listen to someone speaking for long periods of time…..my mind drifts away and I lose the connection, going back many times. This lady held my attention for the entire speech. She is without doubt one of the most incredibly eloquent and beautiful human beings I have had the pleasure to listen to. Heart wrenching as her story is, it is spell binding and MUST be told. It is just a shame that war is still happening and we really haven’t learnt any lessons. I wish her all the best in the rest of her life
The world must never forget about his horrific event and must remembered to make the world and its people that evil exists .
This is a amazing story!! Your mother was blessed to live to give birth.
This was a great memoir of all those people had to go through.This Lady has taken every ounce of her being to get this story out of the events that has taken place.For all those people,a good thank you for letting all young people hear of the true episode that took place.
Thank you, Eva. I sat and watched and listened so intently and am so grateful for your telling of your story and your family's. Listening makes me realise how lucky I am to be here too, the granddaughter of a survivor.
What a wonderful woman. God bless her, her mom, and family.
Wow, such beauty in so much sadness I pray to god that he shines the light over you and your beautiful family for ever,!thank you for your mother’s story and elegantly told, thank you.
This should be taught in grade school through high school and beyond, we can never forget
I was born during the Rwandan genocide where millions of people died. Thanks for telling your story
Wow. Thank You God for the survivors. Thank You for your story. Our children in the USA are no longer taught Of this horror or our civics. They have no clue what our constitution even says let alone means.
My fear is history repeating itself in a similar way. Again Thank You and God Bless you and yours
Eileen, glad I'm not the only person watching facets of the Third Reich emerging in the U S.
China has concentration camps for the Uyghurs . Over 1 million detained for their religion. They say if you need a transplant this is the place to go...
The children here are indeed taught about this - you are misinformed if you think otherwise. You are correct about the rest. What is happening is bad enough, no need to exaggerate as the other side does to make a case
I don’t know what kind of school your children went to but I’m a millennial and I was certainly taught about the Holocaust. One of our assigned reading books was the diary of Anne Frank which I still own and consider in my top 3 favorite books. Have you read it?
My stepson is in the 4th grade and knows exactly what the Holocaust was and read the book “Who was Anne Frank” just last week. Have you read it by chance?
I also had to pass a huge exam about the constitution before passing 4th grade and then studied it in depth in college only a few years ago. American Government is a basic class that is required for even a minor Associates degree.
I would argue that young people understand the constitution more than some older people. Considering Millennials hold more college degrees than any generation that came before them.
I’m guessing when you see them exercising their right to protest you think they shouldn’t. I also know from my observations of the older generations that a lot of them don’t understand the constitution is not a biblical document and was never intended to be. The very first amendment is Freedom of Religion.
. That means freedom for all people to be or not be religious and if they choose to be religious to practice any religion they want. Jews are not Evangelical Christians. Jews are free in America for now. Though if most Evangelicals had it their way they wouldn’t be they would have to adhere to mainstream Christian values to live here. That’s what happens when you make laws based on your particular religion.
What do I know though....
My daughter is a history teacher in California and she teaches about the Holocaust every year.
Truly an amazing story of human strength and survival. The holocaust is such a tragic event, but it's stories like these that give me hope. I'm so glad that this woman and her mother survived to create such beauty.
She's so strong. And, she looks so much better than our "snowbird" winter visitors here in Arizona do in their late 60's and early 70's.
