Yup. Blacks, gypsies, Jews, Armenians, mentally disabled, homosexuals, and any other group Hitler considered to be a drain on society were executed. He wanted a pure race of the most perfect.

I believe that the Holocaust itself refers to the Nazi's killing of Jews, so it would not have mattered what colour you were, if you were a Jew, Hitler wanted you dead.
In saying that I am not implying Hitler was pro-black, indeed when in 1936 the Olympic Games were held in Berlin Hitler's stormed out of the arena and refused to award the gold medal to the Black American athlete Jesse Owens, it is said that he was furious that a black man had shown himself more able than Hitler's own countrymen whom Jesse Owens was up against.

Not here in the states. In fact some went on to serve in World War two. Like the now famous Touskagee Airman for example.

There were some mixed race Germans who were the children of black French occupation soldiers in the Ruhr after WWI. Yes, they got sent to concentration camps.

Yes they were. Anyone Hitler didn't like was persecuted. And that was the vast majority of mankind.
