"So let us not weep, let us not
Moan, and to spite all enemies,
Let us smile, only smile, that they
May be amazed at what Jews are capable of
 
And not understand that in our blood
Flows the power of our forefathers..."
Lodz Ghetto, February 23, 1942
--from Lekh Lekho, by Symcha Bunim Shayevitsh, 1907-1944

This latter group numbered several thousands. From the autumn of 1945 through 1946 and 1947 thousands of Polish Jews from the Soviet Union - in the framework of the repatriation programme - converged upon Lodz." Read more...
