Adolf Hitler was set on dividing the pure and the jews, the “pure” is a normal person that is not jewish or homosexual etc. The ghetto was a hard place to live, most people died of starvation or exhausting work. Food was so limited kids would smuggle food into the ghettos so the jews inside wouldn’t starve.

As I mentioned food was so scarce, nobody would have enough food to be satisfied and often went nights/days without food. 83,000 people died of starvation if that doesn’t give you an example of the scarce supplies i don’t know what would. The jewish people would often steal or trade it the ghettos. Forced labor was part of everyday life in the ghettos, a fraction of jews died from the labor.Life in the ghettos went from bad to worse, the jews thought the ghettos was the end but it was a major step to the final solution.
