CELEBRATING THE FREEDOM TO MARRY ON THE 40TH ANNIVERSARY OF LOVING V. VIRGINIA


Freedom to Marry has a new series of ads being launched in honor of the 40th anniversary of the United States Supreme Court decision in Loving v. Virginia, that struck down laws prohibiting interracial marriages. Then, as now, Virginia was in the intolerant rump of the history of civil rights for all citizens. Freedom to Marry's main web site page is at: http://www.freedomtomarry.org/node.asp?id=3729. To view the five different ads showing prominent couples who could not marry in some states prior to the decision in Loving v. Virginia, please go to the following PDF link. http://www.freedomtomarry.org/images/pdfs/press_releases/FIA_F2M_politico-proof.pdf.
