156901
A section of a city, that once was the city's center.  Urban growth moved the rich to the outskirts and this created the ghetto.\n\nMy personal definition of ghetto was my husband and my first apartment.  We lived on the third floor and all our neighbors moved out within 3 months of us living there.  The laudry room was locked after a certian time and our back window overlooked a "junkyard/car repair" were new Mercedes and Porsches would go into in the evening and never come out.

Ghetto is one choice.\n\nNot a stoner: (Revised) a pot-head.\n\nA scenester: Yes. I make a scene every where I go. From just a regular chillin' spot to a party. Better yet, I am the party. I always start it.\n\nNot a dork: Don't want to be popular. I'm just really known from a lot of people. That has to do with (Great Personality).\n\nNot a redneck: (Half-Breed) Just messing. I am mixed.\n\nStraight edge: Don't know what you mean but I am straight out.\n\nOther: "The situation-friend-getter". Meaning every time my friends are in a situation they always need to come and get me since I'm the only best listener and give the "right" advice than my other friends. They don't run to one another. They all run to me to see what I think of it. But I have problems too and no one to run to.

M Keeping it real is simply being honest and telling people whats on your mind or what you think about certain situations. It's sort of like that saying "You want the truth, but can you handle the truth? Keeping it real will not always be something that someone wants to hear. \nSince you have lived in the ghettos, you understand what the lifestyle is like for some...not all. \nKeeping it real in the hood would be following the norms and customs of that neighborhood.

For centuries, Jews had faced persecution, and were often forced to live in designated areas called ghettos . \n\nThe Nazis' ghettos differed, however, in that they were a preliminary step in the annihilation of the Jews, rather than a method to just isolate them from the rest of society. As the war against the Jews progressed, the ghettos became transition areas, used as collection points for deportation to death camps and concentration camps .  \n \nHitler incorporated the western part of Poland into Germany according to race doctrine. He intended that Poles were to become the slaves of Germany and that the two million Jews therein were to be concentrated in ghettos in Poland's larger cities. Later this would simplify transport to the death camps. Nazi occupation authorities officially told the story that Jews were natural carriers of all types of diseases, especially typhus, and that it was necessary to isolate Jews from the Polish community. Jewish neighborhoods thus were transformed into prisons. The five major ghettos were located in Warsaw , Lódz, Kraków, Lublin, and Lvov. \n\nOn November 23, 1939 General Governor Hans Frank issued an ordinance that Jews ten years of age and older living in the General Government  had to wear the Star of David on armbands or pinned to the chest or back. This made the identification of Jews easier when the Nazis began issuing orders establishing ghettos. \n\nIn total, the Nazis established 356 ghettos in Poland, the Soviet Union, the Baltic States, Czechoslovakia, Romania, and Hungary between 1939 and 1945. There was no uniformity to these ghettos. The ghettos in small towns were generally not sealed off, which was often a temporary measure used until the residents could be sent to bigger ghettos. \nLarger cities had closed ghettos, with brick or stone walls, wooden fences, and barbed wire defining the boundaries. Guards were placed strategically at gateways and other boundary openings. Jews were not allowed to leave the so-called "Jewish residential districts," under penalty of death. \n\nAll ghettos had the most appalling, inhuman living conditions. The smallest ghetto housed approximately 3,000 people. Warsaw, the largest ghetto, held 400,000 people. Lódz, the second largest, held about 160,000. Other Polish cities with large Jewish ghettos included Bialystok, Czestochowa, Kielce, Kraków, Lublin, Lvóv, Radom, and Vilna. \n\nMany of the ghetto dwellers were from the local area. Others were from neighboring villages. In October 1941, general deportations began from Germany to major ghettos in Poland and further east. Also, Jews from Austria and the Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia were sent to the ghettos. \n Ghetto life was wretched. The ghettos were filthy, with poor sanitation. Extreme overcrowding forced many people to share a room. Disease was rampant. Staying warm was difficult during bitter cold winters without adequate warm clothes and heating fuel. Food was in such short supply that many slowly starved to death. \n\n Additional notes on ghetto nutrition including examples of daily caloric rations. \n\nEven in the midst of these horrible conditions, many ghetto dwellers resisted dehumanization. Parents continued to educate their children, although it was considered an illegal activity. Some residents secretly continued to hold religious services and observe Jewish holidays. \n\nThe Nazis established the Theresienstadt  (or Terezín) ghetto in northwestern Czechoslovakia as a so-called model Jewish settlement to counter rumors in the international community about the poor conditions in the ghettos. Flower gardens, cafés, and schools were constructed to demonstrate to visiting International Red Cross inspectors and audiences of Nazi propaganda films the humane conditions of a "typical" ghetto. Terezín also functioned as a transit camp for many who were later sent to Auschwitz or other death camps.

Stupid people breed and then teach their kids stupid ways. The ghetto is a cycle of stupididty. I mean seriously, go talk to someone in the ghetto, ask their opinion on pretty much anything and you're guaranteed a stupid, uninformed answer. \n\nSo I guess the only way to get the ghetto under control is to educate these people. It's a very tough task as throwing money to the schools doesn't solve anything. The whole community needs to be educated and I'm not sure how you pull that off. It's a sad affair.

the term urban zone really means the city. it is another term for the ghetto. a ghetto is an underprivileged town with the majority of people from one race.

it's where the bums, drunks and other homeless live and hangout. usually the street and really shabby cheap apartments. it's not slums. it where the least desired of society live or try to live. slums are just bad places. if you say skidrow you're talking about the kind of people that live there as well.
