Happy #LovingDay everyone! Only 55 years ago today, #interracialmarriage was "legalized" in the eyes of the court/law. Love should never be illegal! Love knows no color, nor gender! Thank you to the infamous #Lovings for fighting for love! I'll be spamming you all day with #interraciallove and #LovingDay facts! Also check out my story for everything #interracial all day today! ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜💖🤎🖤🤍 https://www.instagram.com/p/Cet1PTbOP9E/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
