Social distancing day 92: Today is Loving Day! This wasn’t that long ago and so relevant to the current state of affairs in our country. My husband is a child of the loving decision, as his parents pictured here were legally able to marry in VA due to the monumental decision. What is Loving Day? June 12 marks the landmark Supreme Court decision for interracial marriage. The day is named for the monumental case, Loving v. Virginia, and the interracial couple at its center, Richard and Mildred Loving. The 1967 Supreme Court decision struck down 16 state bans on interracial marriage as unconstitutional. #socialjustice #racialjustice #lovingcase #knowourhistory #lovingday https://www.instagram.com/p/CBWvl7CA016/?igshid=10xnyyuoc9ryc
