Racial discrimination in [[Germany]] affects various ethnic and religious minority groups, including people of [[Turkic peoples|Turkish]] and Middle Eastern descent, [[Afro-Germans|Black Germans]], [[Romani people|Romani]] communities, asylum seekers, and [[Jews|Jewish]] populations.<ref>{{Cite journal |last=Schorkopf |first=Frank |date=2001 |title=Report on Germany by the European Commission against Racism and Intolerance (ECRI) |url=https://doi.org/10.1017/s2071832200003771 |journal=German Law Journal |volume=2 |issue=13 |doi=10.1017/s2071832200003771 |issn=2071-8322}}</ref>

People of Turkish and Middle Eastern descent constitute one of the most discriminated against minorities in Germany. Many are descendants of guest workers (''[[Gastarbeiter]]'') who arrived during the 1960s and 1970s. Studies indicate that job applicants with Turkish, Arab, or [[Muslims|Muslim]]-sounding names receive significantly fewer interview invitations compared to those with German-sounding names. In the education system, children of Turkish and [[Arabs|Arab]] backgrounds are disproportionately placed in lower-tier [[Secondary school|secondary schools]], limiting access to higher education and skilled professions.<ref>{{Cite journal |last=Koopmans |first=Ruud |last2=Veit |first2=Susanne |last3=Yemane |first3=Ruta |date=2019-12-10 |title=Taste or statistics?

The Romani community in Germany, estimated to number between 120,000 and 200,000, also faces persistent discrimination in housing, education, and employment. Many Roma families experience forced evictions and struggle to secure rental contracts due to widespread ethnic profiling by landlords. In the education system, Roma children are disproportionately placed in special education schools and have lower enrollment rates in higher education.<ref>{{Citation |title=Mainstreaming Human Rights in the European Union |work=Monitoring Fundamental Rights in the EU : The Contribution of the Fundamental Rights Agency |url=https://doi.org/10.5040/9781472563231.ch-002 |access-date=2025-02-03 |publisher=Hart Publishing |isbn=978-1-4725-6323-1}}</ref>
