I really appreciate your comment and your honesty. For I deal with high anxiety (which leads to depression sometimes ) and at the turn of 2020 I thought this is the year I’m gonna gain control of my life.... then the world was turned on its end.... my anxiety has definitely gotten worse but I’m trying. It warms my heart to hear your words on positivity. Thank you SL, whoever you are. And I hope you can finally turn the corner on your depression ❤️❤️❤️

Right it’s like saying that Slave master killed all of my kin and sold me off but by selling me off he saved my life. It’s not anything to applaud him for. “He” didn’t save your life. Fate saved your life. Chance saved your life. If you believe in a higher power God saved your life. Not that man.

He didn’t save her life out of any goodness in his heart. He just saw that she was healthy enough to work for a while before she died. He was still as evil as the rest.

2:19 thank you Diane for sharing your story. Such a valuable lesson.

My Parents survived the camps and my best friend of 21 years and my Family were speaking last night he had no idea that it was to the right you lived to left you perished. He wept and said he was so sorry he never knew that is how the selection was made. My Mummy wiped his tears and told him to her his tears where a gift for her Heart. The most wonderful moment in all of this that I had my camera on a tripod filming this beautiful encounter. Australia 11.22pm 11 December 2020

I’ll remember that story always.

This made me cry. This makes so much sense to me.

This story just helped me open my eyes.

what a powerful story.

Amazing lady and has done beautiful things with her life. Class act all the way.

Thank you for sharing your mothers story. This was such a great episode

This made me cry.

In many cases, the men who were responsible for monitoring the process were members of the camp's medical staff, of which the most well known was Dr Josef Mengele, "The Angel of Death". Theses doctors were responsible for preserving the "adequate" workforce, i.e. young and capable men and women that were fit for work, while the others were murdered in a matter of a few hours. The medical staff also chose specific people (mostly teenagers and children) for what was essentially medical experiments to be made on humans, mostly such that caused horrible suffering and brought about the death of the "patients". However. the terrible irony is that if you were picked by the medical staff you had some chance to survive, while if you went with the majority of people who arrived, you were sent immediately to the gas chambers. The man who took Diane von Furstenberg's mother out of that line was probably personally responsible for the suffering and death of hundreds, but he also saved the lives of many of the people he picked.

Powerful and the true. Thank God she was saved.

Powerful Story. As a human being that happens to be African American and Native American mix it saddens me to hear the treatment of the Jews. Natives, Jews and African Americans had it pretty bad. We all just want to be human and love.

Yes. It's all we hear these days too. Everyone is or was or always be a victim of persecution by someone else. And we get to hear about it constantly as though it were profitable. And who were you victims to? Let me guess: the evil one himself! How brave of you to say! It takes a lot of guts-especially in this day and age where there is so much white supremacy and systematic racism holding all of these multi zillionaire "people of color" back to say such a thing. I am waiting to hear the stories about how when someone came to America it was so God awful that they decided to return home. America is where about 20% of the population is the evil white man over 18 years of age and he is power enough to see to it that blacks do not become successful. Except we do not know who he is exactly, but can easily point out tens of thousands of mega rich black actors and celebrities. Terribly racist. And had what is allegedly a black man as president for 8 years. So oppressive we have thousands sneaking in illegally every day.

I have found that families lacking minority heritage are unable to grasp the depth of how utterly wretched prejudice is and its repercussions. They seem unable to access empathy vital in understanding and accepting of all the variations of people. It’s like they’re back in the cave, their tribe throwing rocks blindly outward in an effort to stay “safe” from the “others”….the “inferiors”; it only succeeds in keeping themselves and the world stuck and tragic.

Thank you for sharing this segment.

Powerful! God Bless us All!

My parents used to tell me a folk tale that resembled the message of this story about a farmer and his son who broke his leg, but then was able to avoid war. It was a series of chance happenstances of good or bad luck that always yielded unexpected results. What was good became tragic and what was heartbreaking saved their lives. I wonder if it came from something like this. My grandfather’s life was saved because his mother made him late for a resistance meeting to wash his feet. When he came to the meeting place, everyone had been captured.

When I did Diane’s makeup, she told me she was part Greek?? Where’s the ending of the DNA part that they show on this show? It usually shows percentages of DNA origins? The show did not show it long enough or mention those details.

I went into Diane Von Furstenburg's store in NYC about 20 years ago. There was no-one to help me at the counter, so I approached a woman adjusting a mannequin. It was Diane herself. She shooed me away. I did not care to talk to her, all I wanted was help when there was no-one else in attendance. She treated me like dirt. I had never been treated like that before. Horrible woman.

Yes but that women - Bless her bless her

That man was probably dr. Mengele. He did the selections

❤️

He was probably Dr Mangale who is also called “the angel of death”. He must have thought she was pretty strong and should go to other side and be with the women who were doing hard labor. Most of them did die doing that work with those horrible conditions. It was just luck.

They went through a depression and wanted strong leadership. They believed Hitler would lead them to greatness. They also wanted to makeup from their lost in WW1. They blamed the Jews for their failure in WW1 and the depression. Even when they were looseing the war, they still continued with their killings. Absolutely awful.

That man did not save her life for a good reason. At 21 she must have looked strong enough for slave labor. People were not only gassed. People were also worked to death. If you were a twin you might be taken by Mengele, and experimented on.
