10. Race in European psychology to 1945
The racial policy of Nazi Germany included policies and laws implemented in Nazi Germany (1933–1945) based on a specific racist doctrine asserting the superiority of the Aryan race, which claimed scientific legitimacy

11. Definition of racism
Racism might be taken as any practice that, intentionally or not, excludes a racial or ethnic minority from enjoying the full rights, opportunities responsibilities available to the majority population /Goldberg, 1993/

12. History of racism
The term racism was first used by European social scientists in the 1930s to characterize and condemn the Nazi belief system, which posited the superiority of the Aryan race over an elaborate ranking of allegedly lesser races

13. Racism nowadays
There are more Black men behind bars or in the legal system today, than there were slaves in 1850 /Michelle Alexander/

14. The consequences of racism
Racism is not an ability that people are born with but it is based on how an individual is raised and what they learn when they are younger

15. Conclusions
No one is born hating another person because of the color of his skin, or his background, or his religion. People must learn to hate, and if they can learn to hate, they can be taught to love, for love comes more naturally to the human heart than its opposite /Nelson Mandela/
