A must read for anyone interested in race, family, marriage, and their legal struggles! In 1967, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that laws prohibiting interracial marriage were unconstitutional in Loving vs. Virginia. This book takes a critical approach to that case and asks how Loving has influenced the marital freedom and racial equality in America. How far have we come since then, and what effect did the case have on individual lives?
