Amanpour

An Auschwitz survivor's painful, important memoir

Listen Later

From Bosnia to Syria to Ukraine, war crimes are an all-too-common reality wherever conflict arises. The failed promise of “never again” after the Holocaust rings hollow time and time again, and with fewer survivors living to tell the tale with every passing year, testimonies like today's first guest become more vital than ever. Tova Friedman was just five years old when she was taken to Auschwitz, where several members of her family were killed. Now she is sharing her life story in a new memoir, The Daughter of Auschwitz. She joins the program alongside her co-author, journalist Malcolm Brabant, to discuss what compelled her to tell her story now, in all its painful details. 

Also on today's show: Johanna Hamilton & Yoruba Richen, co-directors of the new documentary, The Rebellious Life of Mrs. Rosa Parks; AOL co-founder Steve Case.
