Eugene Black’s survivor story was very a depressing story about young boy and how he was transported to Auschwitz in 1944. He also survived several Nazi slave labour camps. On May 14th, 1944 Eugene was returning home from school, He saw a German military lorry outside the family home, He saw an SS man hit his mother across the face and push her on to the lorry. Eugene wasn't allowed into the house; he was forced onto the lorry with the rest of his family and other Jewish people from the ghetto. Eugene was separated from his family when they got to the camp then after being completely shaved and then showered, he was given his number, 55546, and a striped uniform. Eugene now goes on telling his story about his experiences in schools, prisons
