Genocide of the Jews in World War II is commonly known as the Holocaust. Adolf Hitler, once risen to power, had a goal, among others, of eradicating all the "impurities' in Germany - already this statement is discrimination.

Humans, no matter what race, gender or religion, cannot be considered "impurities" just because of prejudice or assumptions made about them.

People like gypsies, black people, gay people, disabled people, Jewish people, and all those who stood in Hitler's way to a "greater motherland" were oppressed or removed.
