Interracial Marriage
by Pastor Don Elmore
In today's Cincinnati Enquirer (3/20/2011) on Page A9, there is an article entitled: "Image of interracial marriage shifting in Deep South."
Let's look at the first paragraph: "HATTIESBURG, Miss. -- For generations here in the deepest South, there had been a great taboo: publicly crossing the color line for love. LESS THAN 45 YEARS AGO, marriage between blacks and white was ILLEGAL, and it has been frowned upon for much of the time since."
