Nuremberg Laws

The lack of a clear legal method of defining who was Jewish

The Nuremberg Laws classified people with four German grandparents as "German or kindred blood", while people were classified as Jews if they descended from three or four Jewish grandparents. A person with one or two Jewish grandparents was a Mischling, a crossbreed, of "mixed blood".1 These laws deprived Jews of German citizenship and prohibited marriage between Jews and other Germans.
