Abstract "In 1958, Richard and Mildred Loving were arrested in Virginia for breaking the state's law against interracial marriage. They later brought a lawsuit, Loving v. Virginia, to the US Supreme Court. In the landmark ruling, the Supreme Court struck down interracial marriage bans. Loving v. Virginia explores the story and legacy of this historic court case. Easy-to-read text, vivid images, and helpful back matter give readers a clear look at this subject. Features include a table of contents, infographics, a glossary, additional resources, and an index."--provided by publisher.
