racial purity
Bloodline supremacist ideology
Racial purity is the notion that a racial or ethnic group can and should remain unmixed with others—a concept central to eugenics movements and Nazi ideology.
The term appears almost exclusively in historical or critical contexts: The regime's obsession with racial purity led to genocide.
As a scientific concept, it has no validity; human populations have always intermixed.
