50 Years of Loving

For Black History Month this year, I put together a dramatic reading about the case of Loving vs. Virginia which caused the Supreme Court to overturn the remaining anti-miscegenation laws in the United States on June 12, 1967.  These laws prevented marriage across the color line.  Three of the students at Maple Woods Community College read the roles of Richard and Mildred Loving and of the Narrator.   The dramatic reading was presented to the campus on February 14, 2018.
