| Description |
Describes the fate of the Jewish community of Baranowicze in Poland (now Baranavichy, Belarus), which numbered 12,000 Jews at the time of the German occupation in June 1941. Ca. 400 Jewish men were killed immediately after the occupation. Discusses life in the ghetto, where the 12,000 Jews were crowded into 60 houses, and activities of the Judenrat and of Jewish policemen, some of whom were members of resistance groups. Ca. 4,000 Jews were rounded up and killed in March 1942, and another 6,000 were killed in September-October of the same year. Several months later the ghetto was liquidated. Only 250 Jews from Baranowicze survived the Holocaust. Discusses, also, the organization of resistance groups in the ghetto, some cases of physical resistance, and escapes to join the partisans in the forests.
