Blood purity (Harry Potter)


 

Blood purity is a concept in the fictional Harry Potter book series. It is a form of class prejudice and also has analogies to racism.

Description

Wizards throughout the Harry Potter world live in voluntary segregation from the Muggle (non-magical) society. The wizarding population commonly regards Muggles as disadvantaged due to their lack of ability to perform magic. When taken to extremes, this becomes the belief that Muggles are inferior and that marriage between wizards and Muggles taints the magical race.
