It's not very cozy inside a ghetto home. If you've been to student apartments this is probably worth living like compared to the ghetto. The social life is about the same, but ghettos have a tendency to squeeze several people together in a tiny hole. Another thing you could compare to a ghetto are the gavel's, for example in Brazil, that exert the same kind of charm that would make you strive after not growing up poor.
The Germans placed work with businesses in the Ghetto so the Jews were used as cheap labour.
Jews who had managed to bring in money or other valuables would use these to buy food from the non Jewish local population.
Just like they would 'of' lived outside the ghettos, except they would have had a harder time finding food water and shelter.
Yes, many people tried to survive the Holocaust.
Camps, by far. Ghettos held only a couple of million people, where as there were tens of millions in the camps (not all at the same time).
Yes people still held bar mitzvahs in the ghetto but they were very small and secretive so they wouldn't get caught.
they would live in the streets or some of the old buildings they could find.
Those who survived the appallingly low rations and the disease were later sent to extermination camps.

ghettos were used to contain Jews and other stereotypical "dirty people", deemed by Hitler and his soilders. Ghettos kept the "clean people" away from the "dirty" people.
The Ghettos was place where people, Mostly jews was putted to starved to death and the rest of the holocause mainly the concentration camps killed people, Mostly jews. So the relation between the Holocaust and Ghettos is that Jews was killed in both of these areas ________________________ The ghettos were a kind of holding place or waiting room. Before the elimination of the Jews was considered, they were segregated and put into ghettos. Following the invasion of the Soviet Union the ghettos became too crowded, this led to the need for drastic action, ie. elimination, which became the Holocaust.
Ghettos were blocked off sections of town where Jewish people were forced to live. Walls were built around the ghettos in order to keep the Jews inside. It was hard living in the ghettos. Food and personal space were scarce.
Yes people still held bar mitzvahs in the ghetto but they were very small and secretive so they wouldn't get caught.
the Jewish people did and an estimate of about 100,000 of them died well, almost all of them died before long. Some ghettos also held gypsies.
they would live in the streets or some of the old buildings they could find.
One Holocaust survivor, David Faber, survived because he promised his mother (who was murdered) he would tell the world what happened.
They were the first step before they started sending Jewish people off to concentration camps and they also removed them from the outside world, which is what the Nazis wanted.
The ghettos are important to understanding the holocaust because the death camps weren't the whole story. A lot of people died in the ghettos as they were cut off from everything else and starved of necessities. It was a similar dehumanization that brought out the worst, and occasionally the best, in people.
