#BlackNativeAmericanHeritage (at Chinquapin, North Carolina)
The Racial Integrity Act required that a racial description of every person be recorded at birth and divided society into only two classifications: white and colored (essentially all other, which included numerous American Indians ). It defined race by the " one-drop rule ", defining as "colored" persons with any African or Native American ancestry. It also expanded the scope of Virginia's ban on interracial marriage ( anti-miscegenation law ) by criminalizing all marriages between white persons and non-white persons. In 1967 the law was overturned by the United States Supreme Court in its ruling on Loving v. Virginia . #BlackHistoryMonth #BlackNativeAmericanHeritage #RacialIntegrityActOf1824 #OneDropRule
