Remember, adding people to this list must be done only for views that were seriously divergent from the "accepted norm" of racial relations at the time they lived. One cannot judge people as racist by comparing them to modern standards.

  • George Wallace, Governor of Alabama during the Civil Rights Era.
  • David Duke, former Grand Wizard of the Knights of the Klu Klux Klan and Lousiana State Representative
  • D.W.Griffith, as evidenced by the film masterpiece The Birth of a Nation
  • Adolf Hitler, Joseph Goebbels, Heinrich Himmler, Reinhard Heydrich, and other prominent Nazi officials directly responsible for carrying out the Nazi's Final Solution to the Jewish Question
  • The majority justices in the (in)famous Plessy v Ferguson landmark US Supreme Court case in 1896, which created the "separate but equal" doctrine. Even by the standards of the time, this decision is notorious for being notably racist, specifically, anti-black.
  • P.W. Botha, President of South Africa during the height of the apartheid era there.

An example of a famous racist would be Adolf Hitler. He was extremely racist towards the Jewish people which caused one of the most depressing times in history known as the Holocaust.
