TIL about the Cagots, a group of people in France and Spain who experienced systemic hatred and discrimination because... they were Cagots.
They weren't any different from the other people living near them - same skin and hair color, same language, same religion, etc. - but if you were born to a Cagot family, you were a Cagot, and the rest of the people hated and shunned you. And nobody nowadays knows why; the origins of the discrimination have been lost to time.
@noelle did Cagots wear cagoules?
