50 Important Historical Photos That Might Change Your Perspective On Things, As Shared By This Facebook Page

Some of the survivors reunited in 2005. You can click on their names to get more of their stories and Gabi Neumann's who did extensive research including giving a background on the picture which included "Q: Tell me about the famous photograph in which you appear. A: The picture was taken a few days after liberation. I don’t remember exactly how many. It is a completely staged photograph. The Russians walked around the blocks calling on us to be photographed. My sister didn’t want to be photographed, so she isn’t in the picture. I was curious, and allowed my picture to be taken. You can see that they dressed us in prisoner uniforms that were a few sizes too big for us. Underneath the prisoner uniforms we wore the rags that we had. But because of this picture, I found my family. The Russians took my details and that’s how my mother found my sister and me later on." https://www.yadvashem.org/yv/en/exhibitions/through-the-lens/auschwitz-child-survivors.asp

"What Are You STILL Salty About?: 30 People Share Their Worst Injustice Moments In Life

Well, I mean, it would make more sense to be mad at the Nobel Prize selection committee since they're the ones who gave out the award. The others still did good work in the world and have no say in who gets the award.

I went to a nightclub on halloween dressed as a zombie. There was a prize for best dressed and me and my friends were pretty much the only people dressed up (aside from a couple of girls wearing devil horns). The nightclub changed the competition to the girl with the biggest boobs instead!!!

I wasn't l allowed to be valedictorian despite my GPA begin a full point higher than the other person because I graduated a year early. Supposedly there was a 30 year old rule that said students had to finish 7 semesters to be valedictorian. If it weren't for the fact that a) I had asked at the beginning of the year if me graduating early would hinder my chances and was told no b) 2 years before someone had graduated a year early as valedictorian c) they overturned the rule the next year so the principals daughter could graduate early as valedictorian and d) that I put up with a lot of harassment that year that I could have skipped if I had done just the 2 credits I needed and been done. 12 yrs ago and it still gets to me.

Ten years old. The church picnic. I was winning the sack race, when the pastor's son hopped from his sack and just ran to the finish line. He was awarded by the assistant pastor the first class ribbon, and I got the second. When my mother complained, the assistant pastor told her that "there is nothing in the rules that says you can't just run the race" and that pride is a sin.

I relate so much! I developed what I later found out was asthma at 16. Suddenly I couldn't run or exercise like I was used to. I went to my pediatrician who told me that she knew I was smoking and she had no help for me until I quit. I told her that my parents smoked, I had never even tried it. She told me she knew I was lying and she wouldn't see me again about my breathing until I quit smoking then ended the visit.

An Insulin Pump

They thought my insulin pump was a bomb. I was tackled by TSA immediately. I was 14 at the time, still traumatized. Now any time I see any law enforcement I get anxious.

A Teddy Bear With A Hole In Its Belly

My niece has a teddy bear. She has had this teddy bear essentially since she was born. The doggo has bitten a hole into its belly, so we sew onto it like a lion head sticker, to keep its guts inside. One time we were on holiday visiting family, and she left it there, luckily I was staying a bit longer so I could grab it on my way back. An adult man with a teddy bear that had its guts torn open and fixed with a lion bandaid apparently looks pretty suspicious, so they shoved the poor guy into x-ray 3-4 times. She is still in ownership of the teddy bear and it is still in decent shape.

A Box With One's Mom's Ashes

My mom passed away unexpectedly in California. I flew out to pick up her ashes and there was a terror alert at LAX. It was unreal; the military was in the airport with what looked like machine guns. I was out of my mind with grief and drugged to the gills. I was dealing with a bad back, and had to fly from California to a small town in Virginia for the memorial service. Security was heightened and everyone was being searched. I only had a small carry on and my mom’s ashes. When I got to the TSA, the agent wanted me to open my mother’s box of ashes! I refused and insisted they x ray the box instead. It showed nothing inside ( duh- ashes) which convinced the TSA agent that it had some sort of cloaking device and was hiding a bomb. Again he insisted that I open the box that held my mom’s ashes. I was beginning to lose my s**t. I called my husband who works in nuclear power and explained what was going on. He told me to tell the TSA agent to place a coin under the box and send it through the X-ray again. He did and thank goodness he saw the coin. Otherwise I would have been arrested for assaulting a stupid TSA agent.
