Genocide

Question 6 • WA-World History B - Aberdeen

Which would be considered an act of genocide according to the UN’s definition?

Answer
A
preventing members of a group from having children
B
having to wear an armband for identification
C
being banned from public places
D
losing citizenship

Explanation

The UN definition of genocide includes imposing measures intended to prevent births within a national, ethnic, racial, or religious group. Preventing members of a group from having children is such a measure. Wearing an armband, being banned from public places, or losing citizenship may be forms of persecution, but they are not by themselves acts listed in the UN definition of genocide.
