Last week marked the 50th anniversary of Loving v. Virginia, a Supreme Court case that legalized interracial marriage in the United States. Today, nearly 20 percent of newlyweds are married to someone of a different race or ethnicity – that’s a fivefold jump from when the Loving case was decided. As part of Forum’s “In My Experience” series, we talk to two couples about their interracial relationships. And we would like to hear from you: If you’re part of an interracial couple, what ways – big or small – does race affect your relationship?
