Probably would have been interesting to have information about *since when* interracial marriage has been legal in different states. This map is binary, and really only highlights basically the civil war states.
What’s New Jersey doing?
Weird to think this was a thing during my parents‘ lifetime and now they’ve been together as a mixed couple for 36 years.
I’m guessing scotus leaves this particular civil liberty alone.
Literally every map of the United States with negative connotations:
What’s with Delaware?
Was it all interracial marriage or only white with minorities were illegal? Like could a hispanic person marry a black person?
How taboo was interracial marriages in states where it was legal?
Oh wow that’s crazy
It was only between black and white people or between white people and any othe poc?, also is crazy to think that in places so multiracial like miami was illegal
This just points out that the South was insufficiently punished after the Civil War.
Alabama only repealed its ban on interracial marriage in 2000
What a shock.
Side note — Loving v Virginia is one of the best Supreme Court case names ever — especially considering what the case is about.
The Bible belt huh
Living in South Louisiana it’s crazy to see that. Lots of Creoles with ancestry mixed up every which way down here. The history of suppressing that is ugly and completely nonsensical.
I remember reading this in my Dad’s (Louisiana) law book when I was little and he said it had recently been repealed.
I was shocked that the government would stick their nose into that kind of thing.
Won’t be long before the current SCOTUS overturns that decision
reminder that justice thomas, who is in an interracial marriage, has suggested that the court should reexamine that decision
we’re in the dumbest timeline
Usual suspects
Wait until you find out where Nazi Germany got its racial mixing laws from. Grim stuff.
Washington State also tried (and failed) to add a law in the early 1900s by public referendum.
Irrefutable evidence that Delaware is a Southern state.
I see a pattern there……
And would ya look at that, almost all of them were former Confederate states.
And if Uncle Clarence in SCOTUS has his way, it will be again.
Seeing the demographics today, they probably should’ve kept it
Letting the South back into the Union was, and this is true, a mistake.
67 lol
