Jews for not acknowledging Jesus Christ as the true Jewish Messiah. Racism Humani generis unitas clearly condemns American racial segregation and racism and Nazi German anti-Semitism, though without explicitly naming these countries. Racism is a denial of the unity of human society, a denial of the human personality, and a denial of the true values of religion There is no relation between race and religion, because racism is destructive to any society. Racism is destructive not only for social relations within a society but also for international relations and relations between different races. Persecution of Jews The draft condemns the persecution of Jews: “persecutions everywhere carried out against the Jews since antiquity… have been censured by the Holy See on more than one occasion, but especially when they have worn the mantle of Christianity". It identifies specific ways Jews were being persecuted at the time of writing: millions of persons are deprived of the most elementary rights and privileges of citizens in the very land of their birth. Denied legal protection against violence and robbery, exposed to every form of insult and public degradation, innocent persons are treated as criminals though they have scrupulously obeyed the law of their native land. Even those who in time of war fought bravely for their country are treated as traitors, and the children of those who laid down their lives in their country's behalf are branded as outlaws by the very fact of their parentage… In the case of the Jews, this flagrant denial of human rights sends many thousands of helpless persons out over the face of the earth without any resources. Anti-Judaic context But the text hedges with an anti-Judaic theme. “This unjust and pitiless campaign against the Jews has at least this advantage”, according to the draft, "because the true nature, the authentic basis of the social separation of the Jews from the rest of humanity … is religious in character. …Essentially, the so-called Jewish question … is a question of religion and, since the coming of Christ, a question of Christianity." The encyclical blames the Jews of the time of Christ for having brought their own Messiah Jesus Christ to death: "The very act by which the Jewish people put to death their Savior and King was, in the strong language of Saint Paul, the salvation of the world." The draft continues by accusing Jews of blind materialism. Blinded
