Flipboard Culture Desk<p>99-year-old Anita Lasker-Wallfisch is the last remaining survivor of the Women's Orchestra of Auschwitz. She attributes her survival to the fact that the orchestra needed a cellist. She spoke to <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://flipboard.com/@BBCNews" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>BBCNews</span></a></span> in 1945, on the day of the liberation of the Bergen-Belsen death camp to which she had been transferred six months before, and again in 1996. Here is her story, details of which some readers may find distressing. Having vowed never to set foot again on German soil, she later softened her stance and went in 2018 to Berlin to address the Bundestag (parliament). She told them: "As you see, I broke my oath – many, many years ago – and I have no regrets. It's quite simple: hate is poison and, ultimately, you poison yourself."</p><p><a href="https://flip.it/a2Hjvm" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">flip.it/a2Hjvm</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p><p><a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/HolocaustMemorialDay" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>HolocaustMemorialDay</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Auschwitz" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Auschwitz</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/BergenBelsen" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BergenBelsen</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/AnitaLaskerWallfisch" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AnitaLaskerWallfisch</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Nazism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Nazism</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/WorldWarTwo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>WorldWarTwo</span></a></p>
