Survivor shares how mother rescued her on International Holocaust Remembrance Day and delivers a message to the United Nations

A Holocaust survivor who labeled the genocide as the most “horrifying” and “unbelievable part of human history” shared with Fox News Digital her intention to convey a message of “don’t hate, love,” during her upcoming address to the U.N. General Assembly. 

Marianne Miller, a native of Budapest, Hungary, who was born during World War II, made the journey from Israel to New York City to speak on International Holocaust Remembrance Day. Recalling her experience during the Holocaust, Miller recounted being in her mother’s arms when she miraculously evaded a line of women being led towards a railway station to board a train bound for Auschwitz. 

“I am a surviving witness of the Holocaust. I can still assert in the first person, ‘I have been there,'” Miller stated to Fox News Digital. “Every passing day, Holocaust survivors depart from this world, and soon, only a handful will remain.” 

“It didn’t happen in the Middle Ages. It happened only 80 years ago,” she added. “I came to represent 6 million people that can’t tell their stories.”

Miller also participated in the International March of the Living, an annual Holocaust remembrance event and educational program. The nonprofit says she “shared her story of survival with thousands of participants joining commemorative marches through both Budapest in Hungary and Auschwitz-Birkenau in Poland” and there “she expressed her dream of addressing world leaders at the U.N. to tell her story.” 

It helped arrange Miller’s visit to U.N. headquarters, where she is expected to speak to more than 1,000 people.
