The industrial city of Łódź was the second largest city in Poland and housed the second-largest Jewish community of the country when the Nazis decided to germanise it, segregating their Jews in what became the second-largest ghetto of ocuppied Poland. The Łódź ghetto became known by the apparent passivity of its inhabitants, fame that brought about the obliteration of resistance as the carpenters’ strike in January 1941. This article aims to shed some light on this that was, presumably, the most important strike held by the inhabitants of the Łódź ghetto demanding better conditions of life to the Jewish leader, Mordechai Chaim Rumkowski.
