A Resident of the Lodz Ghetto is Abused and Humiliated (1942)

Abuse and humiliation was part of everyday life for the Jewish inhabitants of Lodz and other ghettos and camps. Tens of thousands of ghetto residents suffered violence, illness, and malnourishment. In the Lodz ghetto alone, an estimated 6,000 Jews died in 1940; 11,000 died in 1941, and 18,000 died in 1942.
