I was always curious about what Alberta has been through and I wanted to get to know her better. When meeting Alberta for the interview, she seemed filled with excitement and life. She had on a white, button up dress shirt with a light blue vest on and light brown slacks. She also was wearing black dress up shoes with black socks. She had a straight, confident posture with a bright smile on her face. Her hair was a faded light brown, but was well kept with a radiant shine. She told about her mother and how she became a big influence on her life. “My mom always told me “Don’t depend on a man.

She decided to go to Hamburg, northern Germany at the age of 21. On the plane to Germany, people worn suites, the menu was bigger than today’s menus and the planes back then had more space. When landing, she went to the West side of the Germany at the time of being separated. She told me, the West side was filled with friendly people. She said, “You have to go through Checkpoint Charlie which leads to the East side. You would walk in the entrance and you would see a big open field. The other gate would be straight ahead. You can see the empty buildings at the side of the Brandenburg wall, but there are American soldiers in some of the windows.” She into the East side with a big smile on her face. Her face lightened up when she talked about the little elder lady. “She asked me if I liked it here. I told her yes. The lady smile and said ‘Really? We thought people hated us because of the Russian control.” On the last day of her job, she rode a train back to the airport and had an odd conversation with a Swedish. “The man said he didn’t want to work and wanted to live off others,” she said with frustrated look. The man made her upset, but she realized she really wanted to finish

Culture is defined as the boundary between different people from different ends of the earth. For my project I had to interview another person from a different culture. This was difficult for me because I had no idea where to start because I didn’t know what made my culture specific to me. I found my interview subject relatively fast and I sat down and asked the questions. I found my subject from my boss I interviewed my bosses boyfriends sister and we went at it.
Born in Poland, Henia Weit was the youngest of nine children in her family. She lived in a town by the name of Sambor. Unfortunately, the town was bombarded by German soldiers shortly after Hitler started his reign of terror on the Jews. Henia’s family was forced to do laborious work in a ghetto until they were all deported to a concentration camp. Fortunately for Henia, she was able to escape and never went to the concentration camp herself. Instead, she had to survive for several years alone, with only her sister to turn to.

It was September 1943 in Copenhagen, Denmark, when just 10 year old Annemarie Johansen promised that as a danish Citizen if need be she would die for her King. Courage was what it took to survive the German occupation in their country. Although the German soldiers that stood at every street corner weren’t there to harm her family, they were there to relocate all Jews. Which soon included Annemarie’s lifelong friend, Ellen. Not only as a danish citizen promising to die for your kings safety, Annemarie also was willing to die for the safety of her friends too. Which is exactly what she did. The German soldier’s went throughout the city to every apartment at which known Jews lived and relocated them. Doing a very dangerous task the Johansen
For my interview, I chose to interview my mom, Ilsa Wells, who had been born and lived in Colombia for 23 years before moving to the United States. Her family in Colombia was able to get by and provide for their fairly large family, albeit barely and with a lot of people having to work to make ends meet. She got her education there and when she was 23 she decided to move here in search of job opportunities and a better life.
Gerda was 15 when she was moved into a ghetto called the Bielsko ghetto in 1939 ,September 1. Gerda had an older brother who was 19. But that changed when young men 16 and up had to sign up for the army. Now it was just Gerda and her parents. Then german fighter planes appeared overhead, causing people to flee the city. Her family remanded in the town. In the morning, she heard intense shouting and saw Nazi’s on motorcycles shouting “Heil Hitler”. One day women and men were separated and asked to be put in lines. Gerda was in the line with her mother and a guard asked her how old she was and she said, “18”. Then she was put in a truck a shouting at her mother to ask where she was going and her mother said she didn’t know. Gerda jumped out of the truck but a SS officer caught her and said to her that she was too young to die. Then she knew that her mother was going to die. After Gerda being moved into the ghetto she was deported in 1942 to work in a factory in Bolkenhain, Silesia. Besides the of all the labor and hunger there was caring caring between the inmates. A German supervisor, Mrs. Kugler, saved Gerda’s life because when Gerda got sick and the SS men had to inspected her to see if she should continue working or die. Mrs. Kugler helped her pass the Inspection by just letting her work and then rest again. She was moved to a camp called Marzdorf and spent three years there. It
Bean I should be aware of the issues of conflict of interest. I need to make sure that our law firm has never represented Ms. Bean’s spouse. If this is the case at all I will need to inform her that we are unable to represent her. If I know Ms. Bean personally at all this would potentially cause a conflict of interest. Especially if I personally know her spouse as well. By carrying on this interview it will give me a great deal of insight into hew case and if any type of conflict of interest may occur I need to be very honest with Ms. Bean, as our potential client, because it could cause a change in the outcome of the case all together if she chooses to have us represent her (ABA, Rule 1.7). Of course I need to keep in mind the ethical rule of confidentiality. Whatever Ms. Bean shares with me is confidential, so it is only to stay between the firm and herself and she should be comfortable in knowing she can tell us anything and it will never leave the law firm (ABA, Rule
For my study, I will be collecting information regarding the provision and allocation of healthcare resources and information. One of the main ways in which I which I will collect data is by conducting interviews within the indigenous communities, specifically with mothers and the head of households. I will conduct 32 total interviews with individuals within indigenous communities in México and Colombia who identify as indigenous and have stated that they have interacted with a government healthcare official at least once in their lifetime. Due to time and financial constraints, I will have to limit the indigenous communities I will interview as it would be impossible to interview the different indigenous communities in both México and Colombia.
The interviews were conducted over a two-week period in Term 4 of the NSW school year. Interviews took place at the participating institution branches, in a designated room as discussed with the administrators. Each participant was invited to an individual interview, which took approximately 15 minutes, dependent upon the participant’s level of participation and the time constraints. Throughout each interview, the conversation between the interviewer (i.e., the author) and the interviewee (i.e., a participant) were audio recorded to facilitate
"Chancellor Kohl, Governing Mayor Diepgen ladie-” “Finally!” I thought to myself as I sighed in relief. “I have been standing out here for like an hour and my legs are starting to burn.” I said to myself quietly. “Amalia!” my mother whispered,”Mund zu!”(Shut Your Mouth) she said in a quiet harsh tone. “Fine.” i muttered back as i pouted from being scolded. In all honesty it’s not my fault I don’t really understand what’s going on I am a sheltered child. My mother dragged me here to listen to this american president talk about the Berlin Wall.

She also told me that on this side of the wall, the west
