Hi Meltingpot Readers,
Today is officially Loving Day, the day the Supreme Court legalized interracial marriage in the United States, thanks to the audacity of one couple, Mildred and Richard Loving.
What’s not to love about Loving Day? I have an extra special reason to kiss my kids and el esposo today. I might buy a box of Cheerios just because. And if possible, I’m going to try to watch a copy of the new newish documentary film about the Lovings and their legal battles that made my Kinky Gazpacho life possible.
How are you going to celebrate Loving Day? If you want some ideas, visit LovingDay.org for a list of celebrations that are happening all over the country today and this weekend.
Peace!
