Anti-Jewish Policy

•In the ghettos, they had to give up their radio. Instead, Daniel’s family secretly kept it hidden. •They also had to give up musical instruments. Again, they also hid their violin.

These were not allowed in the ghettos because the Nazis didn’t want the Jews to know about the war

Home

Medical Treatment

•In the book Daniel’s Story, every Jew was kicked out of the hospital and sent to a concentration camp, including Daniel’s Grandma

•There were very few hospital beds available, so you were lucky to get one

This is how close the beds were to each other in the Warsaw Ghetto

Resistance

•When the Nazis came to take the Jews from the ghetto, they would hide somewhere so they couldn’t be found
