ReviewsThis carefully researched and documented book begins with a brief introduction relating Richard and Mildred Loving's arrest in 1958 for being partners in an interracial marriage. Alonso delineates the process through which a legal case goes to the Supreme Court, as well as the laws and movements from Colonial times to present that pertain to interracial marriages. Next, the case for the Lovings is presented, followed by the case for the Commonwealth of Virginia. The high court's deliberations and the impact of its decision complete the volume. Occasionally, the practice of defining words within the text unnecessarily breaks the flow of the narrative, as there is an appended glossary. The 'Questions for Discussion' provide suggestions for class or group activities requiring more research and, in some cases, higher-order thinking skills.

Lovings vs Virgina
This book is informative of the laws and views of interracial marriages in Virginia during the early 1900’s. This book is not a memoir, by any means. The book is approximately 100 pages.....maybe 6 speak of the Lovings.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
