I saw "Loving" yesterday. Hard to believe that people were once jailed for getting married!

While the pace of the movie is somewhat slow, its impact is strongly felt. Kudos to the two actors playing the interracial couple. Go to see it for the historical message and the feelgood outcome.

2. Chef Ina Garten was on "the chew" today and she mentioned everyone should see

this movie.....said she just was so moved by it, and really loved it.

3. I wasn't even aware that interrracial marriage was a "crime".

I knew it was greatly disparaged and strongly disencouraged (is that even a word?), but a crime? Oh, my goodness.

5. In the state of Virginia it was. However, a Supreme Court landmark decision changed all that

forever.

Hell, schools were segregated according to race when I was growing up.
