Mildred Jeter Loving and Richard Perry Loving wanted to live out their married life near family in Virginia, but the state refused to let them.
The reason: Richard was white and Mildred was black. After being arrested and charged with a crime, the Lovings were forced to leave their home—until they turned to the legal system. In one of the country’s landmark legal battles, Loving
v. Virginia, the Lovings secured their future when the Supreme Court struck down all state laws prohibiting mixed marriage.
Larry Dane Brimner’s thorough research and detailed reconstruction of the Loving v. Virginia case memorializes the emotional journey toward marriage equality in this critical addition to his award-winning social justice titles.
