"We waste no words here. . . . Jews are Jews. And there is no place for them in German sports. . . . Germany is the Fatherland of Germans, not Jews."

Although not directly related to racial "purity", most Jews were excluded from many sports complexes, and even the Berlin Olympics of 1936. Even though this may not be considered a significant discrimination against the Jews, it affected many Jews' lives, preventing them from playing an organized sport and took away their right to play an organized sport.

"Now in 1934 or 35, I go there, to the Sports Complex and I have my pass in my hand, I show it to the lady at the cash register, and she sort of averts her face and points up. And I look up, and there's a sign that says, "Jews and other Vermin not allowed here." - Al Miller |
