This lesson addresses one of the most important, but also misunderstood, aspects of the evolution of the Holocaust: ghettos. It enables students to explore the similarities and differences between ghettos and to thereby engage with the complexity of Nazi anti-Jewish policy, whilst also understanding the human impact of ghettoisation.
