The Nürnberg Laws formally divided Germans and Jews, yet neither the word German nor the word Jew was defined. September 15, 1935, the Nürnberg Laws became the centerpiece of anti-Jewish legislation and a precedent for defining and categorizing Jews in all German-controlled lands. Only “racial” Germans were entitled to civil and political rights. Jews were reduced to subjects of the state. They were neglected and racially profiled just because they were Jewish.
The Nazis forced the Jews to wear stars to show they were Jewish. forced them into Jew ghettos, gave them very little food, and told stories about Jews quoting that they were terrible and greedy humans, to make sure people wouldn't help them. Many fell sick and died from the number of people there and how their bodies were neglected from the things they need to live.
**In 1942 the Nazis built killing centers at Treblinka, Sobibor, and Belzec in occupied Poland, These death camps were the essential instrument of the “final solution.” extermination camps became factories producing corpses, effectively and efficiently, at minimal physical and psychological cost to German personnel. Tens of thousands of prisoners each month by Ukrainian, Latvian, German collaborators.**
People resisted by running away and emigrating to other countries. They had to travel through forests and or oceans, sometimes alone, and often had to leave most of their belongings and family members behind. They fled to countries like the US and Britain, or groups set up camps in the forests.
People resisted by joining the army and coming back to Germany to fight, or they would fight back in the concentration camps, sometimes gathering enough people to fight, or destroying the camps.
People also resisted by sending their children to summer camps or non-Jew families so that they could either stay at the camp or be adopted by the families until the Nazis lose the war. They also hid in friends homes or in not well known areas, like the Secret Annex in The Diary of Anne Frank.
