you know it blows my mind that the anti-miscegenation laws weren't ruled unconstitutional until 1967, which would be when my parents generation was dating/marrying. And they weren't completely repealed in individual states until Nov. 2000 when Alabama became the last state to repeal it's law-it is unbelievable!!
P.S. asf, I remember from that lord and Taylor thread that you were from Mass., but we kept crossing paths and I wasn't sure where to acknowledge it. Also i got a private message from you, but there was nothing in it so i didn't know if it was a technical quirk or what. anyways cheers!
