Jewish Resistance
Germans or the Nazis killed jews. Jews were sent to ghettos where which they were starved to death or put in gas chambers where they died. Though they were in ghettos and were controlled by the Nazis many Jews organized resistances and attacked Nazi's in order to escape. They revolted in Warsaw in April-May 1943, Bialystok, Treblinka in August 1943, and Sobibor in October 1943. The jewish also tried to keep their culture alive in ghettos by organizing secret schools, undeground newspapers, cultural institutions, celebrating holidays and rituals. They also kept documents of stories of many Jews that were in Warsaw so people would know what they went through.
