Explain why Lilian's father tells her to suddenly run through a gate. Where does Lilian's family go from there and why do they want to stay in the ghetto?
They run through a gate and into an empty courtyard and hide in an abandoned apartment. Her father explained that it was their only chance to get away from being taken by train to Umschlagplatz and then to where ever else.
Based on what you have learned about the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising and from Lilian's account, in what ways do you think the uprising was a success or a failure?
I think it was a success in that they halted the deportations for at least a little bit. If I were in this situation I would have gone into hiding underground with some stolen communication radios and whatever other supplies I could get my hands on and try to find as many people as I could to form a big enough army and possibly try to contact others outside the country to get others on our side to fight back and end the whole thing sooner so not as many people had to die.
