"Tell Me Inge" was just launched at the Meta's UN event in New York on September 20th. You can read more about the launch here: Meta President: Shows How Technology Can Help Us Learn from the Past and New Global Partnership Brings Holocaust Survivor Inge Auerbacher’s Experience to Virtual Reality “Tell Me, Inge.. is a great example of how immersive technologies can help build empathy and encourage people to reflect on the Holocaust education and remembrance. It’s a unique opportunity for people around the world to connect with history, learn from the past, and build a more empathetic future.” – Nick Clegg, President Global Affairs at Meta

"Tell Me Inge" allows anyone to talk to a Holocaust Survivor, Inge Auerbachuer. Here are some of my favorite questions to ask her: "What was the night that changed everything?" "Tell me about the day you had to say goodbye?" "Tell me about a terrible journey?" "What happened to your grandmother?" "Can you read me a poem?" You can also just look around ask ask about the various objects and places that you see around yourself. Go ahead, just god to the webpage and start your own conversation.
Please do yourself a favor and check this out! Inge is amazing and definitely a force of nature. Kudos to everyone who worked on this project!
