Then when Germany invaded Poland, the SS (or the protection squad) set up Concentration Camps to house Polish prisoners and Jews.

Example of a Concentration Camp is Buchenwald]]> 2017-03-14 01:46:08 UTC https://padlet.com/lexiabear510/jgygh21u6fk8/wish/159861557 lexiabear510 https://padlet.com/lexiabear510/jgygh21u6fk8/wish/159861951 Jews were imprisoned in transit camps before they were either sent to  concentration camps of extermination camps. An example would be Westerbork. Westerbork was a place to hold German Jews who entered the Netherlands illegally. ]]> 2017-03-14 01:50:59 UTC https://padlet.com/lexiabear510/jgygh21u6fk8/wish/159861951 lexiabear510 https://padlet.com/lexiabear510/jgygh21u6fk8/wish/159862152 Many inmates were kept in horrible conditions with death as a result (according to the Nazis).

Our many Jewish friends and acquaintances are being taken away in droves. The Gestapo is treating them very roughly and transporting them in cattle cars to Westerbork, the big camp in Drenthe to which they're sending all the Jews. Miep told us about someone who'd managed to escape from there. It must be terrible in Westerbork. The people get almost nothing to eat, much less to drink, as water is available only one hour a day, and there's only one toilet and sink for several thousand people. Men and women sleep in the same room, and women and children often have their heads shaved. Escape is almost impossible; many people look Jewish, and they're branded by their shorn heads. If it's that bad in Holland, what must it be like in those faraway and uncivilized places where the Germans are sending them? We assume that most of them are being murdered. The English radio says they're being gassed. Perhaps that's the quickest way to die. I feel terrible. Miep's accounts of these horrors are so heartrending, and Miep is also very distraught. The other day, for instance, the Gestapo deposited an elderly, crippled Jewish woman on Miep's doorstep while they set off to find a car. The old woman was terrified of the glaring searchlights and the guns firing at the English planes overhead. Yet Miep didn't dare let her in. Nobody would. The Germans are generous enough when it comes to punishment. Bep is also very subdued. Her boyfriend is being sent to Germany. Every time the planes fly over, she's afraid they're going to drop their entire bomb load on Bertus's head. Jokes like "Oh, don't worry, they can't all fall on him" or "One bomb is all it takes" are hardly appropriate in this situation. Bertus is not the only one being forced to work in Germany. Trainloads of young men depart daily. Some of them try to sneak off the train when it stops at a small station, but only a few manage to escape unnoticed and find a place to hide...]]> 2017-03-14 02:09:25 UTC https://padlet.com/lexiabear510/jgygh21u6fk8/wish/159863677 lexiabear510 https://padlet.com/lexiabear510/jgygh21u6fk8/wish/159931508 The majority of the Jews lived in varying degrees of poverty. Also, many Jews had limited access to universities, professions and were isolated from the mainstream (the Germans). IN concentration camps, Jews were giving very little food or water and were subjected to brutal treatment and torture. ]]> 2017-03-14 10:47:48 UTC https://padlet.com/lexiabear510/jgygh21u6fk8/wish/159931508
