non-Aryan

Outside Nazi ideal

Non-Aryan is a term from Nazi ideology designating people excluded from the so-called Aryan racial category—primarily Jews, but also Roma, Slavs, and others deemed racially inferior.

The Nazis used it in legislation to strip citizenship and rights: non-Aryan ancestry disqualified Germans from civil service.

Outside this historical context, the term has no scientific validity; "Aryan" itself was a linguistic category misappropriated for racist pseudoscience.
