    DIFFERENCES ON HISTORY AND CULTURE.

    states the division of people into strictly differentiated groups, called
    races, about the connection between inherited physical traits and
    character traits, intelligence, morality, culture, as well as the inherent
    superiority of some races over others.

    - The word "racism" was first recorded in the French dictionary


    Larousse in 1932 and was interpreted as "a system that asserts the
    superiority of one racial group over others."
