Interracial Marriage Between a Black Woman & a White Man in America

By Guerdy Sauvignon Markowski

More than a century has passed since the United States Supreme Court made laws forbidding interracial marriage unconstitutional. The 1967 landmark case Loving v. Virginia legalized and arguably, legitimized interracial marriages and is considered as one of the most significant legal decisions of the civil rights era. Interracial marriage in United States continues to be controversial. The opposition to black and white interracial relationships is historically positioned in the American struggle with slavery, Jim Crow laws, and white supremacy. While interracial marriages are growing more common in United States, many people still do not approve of them interracial. Interestingly, approval rates vary by race, gender, and region. The purpose of this study was to understand how the unique history, politics and current realities of race continues to be constructed in the United States, and how this affects interracial marriage between Black women and White men.
