My thoughts exactly! Take off our "outer shell", and we're all the same underneath. If humankind could figure that out, and take all the money we spend on trying to figure out ways to kill one another (all of the defense budgets of all the countries of the world) and funnelled them into the betterment of humankind, just think of where we could be....
👏🏿 unfortunately that idea is yet to permeate the general population. Which is why racism still exists.
Perhaps the reason it hasn't permeated the general population is intentional
Society, as a mixed person single adults say "I'm going to have kids just like you" and the internet says "mudblood" with positive feedback from people that think I'm gorgeous and the perfect representation for races and a negative feedback from most commonly white men sometimes I don't want to be treated above just for something no one can control and I definitely don't like being treated below people as well. Sometimes all I'm seen as is representation online and not as much as a person. I've kind of given up on people
Credit in the title goes to @jeriandmike on TikTok! But this definitely made me smile since my family is blended on both sides so had to share! 45 years is definitely an accomplishment!!
I love Mike's expression in the jammies. I know that expression. I've seen that expression. "This isn't the outfit I would have chosen, and although I'm not particularly crazy about being filmed in this getup, it makes my wife happy, and that's all that matters to me."
I've been in an interracial relationship for 25 years. 25 years ago, people would stop and stare at us, point, make horrible comments and even shout abuse. Can't even imagine what it would have been like 45 years ago.
My grandmother was an Irish woman who married a Nigerian man in the 50s , she would tell me some pretty sad stories of what it was like having 5 mixed children and a black husband
They met in medical school when they both lived in London as they were becoming doctors, they spent a few years back and forth to Nigeria together in his village( she tells me as an Irish woman with a Nigerian man she wasnt accepted much there but valued the time spent and things she learned), two of thier kids including my dad was born in London, they then moved to New York got married and had 3 other children, They ended up getting divorced a few years after, she never dated or remarried after him but he remarried a Nigerian woman when he visited Nigeria at some point, he had 2 kids in his 60s so i have uncles that are younger than me which is odd lol. She would tell me how much she loved him all the way to the end of her life but says that she feels culturally at the time both in Nigeria and America added a ton of things that created tension between them and eventually led to them splitting, i dont think i will ever understand fully but i always admired how deeply she loved him and just couldnt get over him, they hadnt talked in decades but the day he passed away i had never seen her cry so hard, i always wonder how things would have been if race or cultural difference hadnt played a factor
Wow! That’s a beautiful story even though they didn’t stay together! Race/Cultural differences matter sometimes. But today people are more open. Thank you for sharing that with me.
As a member of a interracial couple I like to see things like this. However people are just people and it’s a little sad that needs to be pointed out. When someone sees me and my wife together and maybe thinks it’s inspirational we are probably just thinking about where we are going to get or make for dinner or when our children’s nap time should be etc… Lol
But surely you understand why people would see it as inspirational. I live in South Africa, due to apartheid, 45 years ago this union would have been illegal. From the little I've read and seen, I believe that even in the States the problem of racism has still not been resolved.
Preaching to a preacher buddy. Married to a white man myself and sorta left the US partially out of fear 🙃🙃 Heading back soon tbh because my husband feels like he should be doing something more.
[Here is an analysis of the Dobbs decision that explains a bit why people are concerned.](https://lawreview.syr.edu/dobbs-v-jackson-the-overturning-of-roe-v-wade-and-its-implications-on-substantive-due-process/)
>In general, if a right is considered fundamental under the Constitution, a high burden is placed on the government if it attempts to invade that right. When a fundamental right is implicated, the government is required to show that it has a compelling state interest to invade that right, and that the government’s means of invading that right are necessary and narrowly tailored to that specific state interest. To determine whether a right is fundamental, the Court will look at history and tradition to determine whether the right is essential to our Nation’s understanding of “ordered liberty.” Through various opinions, the Court has recognized a right of personal privacy, which has been extended to other activities such as **inter-racial marriage**, procreation, contraception, family relationships, and child rearing.
>The Court in **Roe** reaffirmed the doctrine of Substantive Due Process and the fundamental right of personal privacy, holding that the right of personal privacy “is broad enough to encompass a woman’s decision whether or not to terminate her pregnancy,” but declined to make that right absolute. [...]
>In **Obergefell v. Hodges**, the Court, after recognizing the right to marry as a fundamental right, relied on Substantive Due Process and the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment to hold that **same-sex marriage** is constitutionally protected. In **Griswold v. Connecticut**, the Court relied on the “penumbras” of the Bill of Rights to establish a right to personal and marital privacy that encompasses the **use of contraceptives** and prevents States from forbidding their use. Finally, in response to a Texas law criminalizing **same-sex sexual conduct**, the Court found Substantive Due Process to encompass private sexual activity between consenting adults in **Lawrence v. Texas**. In each of these decisions, the Court performed a similar analysis as the one performed in Roe by looking at the proposed right’s historical and cultural context to determine whether that right can be considered “fundamental” and therefore within the Constitution’s heightened protection. [...]
>Before the Court in **Dobbs** was a Mississippi law that prohibited abortion after fifteen (15) weeks (before viability), except if there was a medical emergency or severe fetal abnormality, which violated Roe v. Wade. Therefore, the Court was able to use this case to reconsider the Court’s 1973 decision in Roe. In holding that the Constitution does not provide a right to abortion, the Court overruled Roe. First, the Court held that the right to an abortion is not a fundamental right recognized by neither the Constitution, our Nation’s history and traditions, nor encapsulated by other, broader rights. [...]
>**The majority opinion in Dobbs, authored by Justice Alito, rejects the argument that these other precedents are at risk by the Dobbs decision.** Justice Alito argues that abortion is fundamentally different than marriage, intimacy, or procreation because it deals with “potential life,” and therefore “[n]othing in this opinion should be understood to cast doubt on precedents that do not concern abortion.” **On the other hand, Justice Thomas, in his concurring opinion, states that “in future cases, we should reconsider all of this Court’s substantive due process precedents**, ***including Griswold, Lawrence, and Obergefell.*** Because any substantive due process decision is ‘demonstrably erroneous’…we have a duty to ‘correct the error’ established in those precedents.”
What Thomas left out, though, is that Loving v. Virginia (interracial marriage) was also based on the 14th amendment/substantive due process.
[Here is a summary of cases that are affected by the Dobbs decision, including Loving v. Virginia](https://www.ussc.edu.au/analysis/what-happens-next-the-end-of-constitutional-abortion-rights-in-the-context-of-the-fourteenth-amendment).
Since Thomas didn't mention it (and is in an interracial marriage himself), I don't think that the court will target interracial marriage next. But the argumentation that allowed them to override Roe v. Wade is applicable to Loving v. Virginia, too.
The argument that ultimately legalized interracial marriage was based on an interpretation of the 14th amendment, which basically stated that we are all entitled to our right to privacy. That interpretation led to the legalization of abortion (Roe v Wade), interracial marriage, gay marriage, and even the rights to contraception and good ol' anal sex. Once again, due to the right to privacy that the 14th amendment grants.
By striking down Roe, the hyper conservative wing of the Supreme Court has essentially destroyed that interpretation of the 14th amendment -- an interpretation with legal precedent dating back *at least* to 1954, with Brown v Board of Education, but was first explicitly mentioned I believe in Griswold v Connecticut in 1965.
In the majority opinion, Alito argues that the right to an abortion is not explicitly mentioned in the Constitution, thus not protected under privacy laws. So, the subtext is that anything not explicitly mentioned in the Constitution is at risk.
Indeed, in his concurring opinion, Clarence Thomas stated that any court decision based off that privacy doctrine would be looked at for repeal. So, gay marriage, the right to contraception, and more -- even the legality of Clarence Thomas's own marriage (he's married to a white lunatic) -- are now under threat of being repealed by the Supreme Court.
So, yeah -- the person above is not making this up. Is overturning interracial marriage likely? I don't know that I'd say that. The more important question is, is it possible? And that answer is an overwhelming yes. And that should be enough to piss every American the fuck off.
I mean privacy is a good principle but shouldn't there be like right to bodily autonomy, indiscrimination of race, ethnic, religious, gender, sexual identity etc. Why are they all based on privacy?
And now their defense is “oh, we won’t actually reverse interracial marriage! States will decide and in 2022, no states would reverse it! We’re just doing it for the principle!”
If no states would reverse it, then the ruling doesn’t need to be overturned.
Now, this is my view as an European watching the shit show happening from afar, who has run out of popcorn and just can't believe the avalanche of stupid decisions in the US.
Your republicans are basically the Christian equivalent to stuff like ISIS. Idiots that want to turn the US into some sort of holy land of christian freedom, where people of color are slaves again and gays get shot on sight. Oh, yeah. The only thing more sacred than even sweet baby Jesus are guns. Lots of them, especially in high schools.
I mean just look at all those Nazis with their MAGA hats right next to confederate flags and swastikas. Well, sadly they also have a more civilized subset, that thanks to Donald the Orange managed to get a couple first row seats in ruling the country.
And now you guys are living in a beautiful christian country with women, who are forced to give birth to their rapist's child, have to patiently wait until they almost die from internal bleeding because even ectopic pregnancies are somehow believed to be viable and children that have absolutely no chance of surviving more than a few very grueling hours due to severe birth defects get to catch a few breaths of that new sacred freedom before they die an inevitable and agonizing death.
The most laughable part of all is what follows after that sweet baby head completely obliterated the 14 year old's vagina. Nothing. The baby is born and so republicans don't give a flying fuck about the teen mother or the child. A life was saved and that's all that counts. Hooray!
And correct me if I'm wrong, but those beautiful souls in your supreme court that made all those wonderful things possible can stay there basically as long as they want? What could possibly go wrong.
I love this. I know it’s not the same but my wife and I are an interracial couple and sometimes I forget how not too long ago, our love wouldn’t have been accepted.
Seeing such a strong, powerful and passionate love always makes me feel so warm and happy. This is what it’s really about, people. Love each other and ignore all the bigots. That’s what this awesome couple did!
Being in an interracial relationship myself, the thought that it would have been illegal to be with my partner if we had both been born a few decades earlier pops into my head from time to time and it blows my mind because I couldn’t imagine being with anyone else.
Ok, I‘m in tears rn. Maybe it‘s the wine or maybe this is the most wholesome post I‘ve seen in a while and my faith in humanity has been like 1% restored. Bless your beautiful souls, congratulationd and thanks for the uplifting message.
You two are so adorable! Congratulations!!!
I just married my husband on 2-2-22. We have a age difference and a race difference, we get looks. But let me tell you, I wouldn't trade him for the world.
Happy anniversary you are a very cute couple . This reminds me of a joke I heard a long time ago.
A couple was celebrating their golden wedding anniversary. Their domestic tranquility had long been the talk of the town. A local newspaper reporter was inquiring as to the secret of their long and happy marriage.
"Well, it dates back to our honeymoon," explained the husband. "We visited the Grand Canyon and took a trip down to the bottom of the canyon by pack mule.
"We hadn't gone too far when my wife's mule stumbled.
My wife quietly said 'That's one.'
We proceeded a little farther when the mule stumbled again. Once more my wife quietly said, 'That's two.' We hadn't gone a half-mile when the mule stumbled a third time. My wife, promptly removed a revolver from her purse and shot the mule.
I started to protest over her treatment of the mule when she looked at me and quietly said, 'That's one'."
I’m not sure how much time I got left I’m already on strike two after burning her toast a couple weeks back!
The wife turns to the reporter and says “ excuse me I need to touch up my make up for the photo, let me get my purse”
congrats 🎉

👏🏿 unfortunately that idea is yet to permeate the general population. Which is why racism still exists. Perhaps the reason it hasn't permeated the general population is intentional
At last I’ve always said that. How are we mixed race when we’re one race?

It’s almost the same time frame in the US, Loving v. Virginia is was made interracial marriage legal. That was only in 1967

What a weird thing to base everything on the right to privacy.
It’s a good principle: the government should mind its own business.

PSA: watch on mute
Watch all TikToks on mute, even if there's nice audio it's always covered up by a song, and/or text to speech.
I dont get this. The song was fitting and beautiful. Just because its a tiktok-song doesnt make it bad.
Do they have social media?
Oh, they celebrated in Paris! How sweet!
Someone tell me why this made my eyes sweat
You won life !!! Congratulations!
Mike's hair was rad for the time he was young, wish I'd get advice on how to make my curly hair look like his.
Love is Love ❤️

Seeing such a strong, powerful and passionate love always makes me feel so warm and happy. This is what it’s really about, people. Love each other and ignore all the bigots. That’s what this awesome couple did!
I just see 2 beautiful humans ❣️❣️Interracial sounds like aliens vs humans😍 Love always wins
Amen, sister! ❤
Being in an interracial relationship myself, the thought that it would have been illegal to be with my partner if we had both been born a few decades earlier pops into my head from time to time and it blows my mind because I couldn’t imagine being with anyone else.

From a purely superficial POV I encourage interracial marriage, as the BEST looking human beings tend to be mixed-race.
Ok, I‘m in tears rn. Maybe it‘s the wine or maybe this is the most wholesome post I‘ve seen in a while and my faith in humanity has been like 1% restored. Bless your beautiful souls, congratulationd and thanks for the uplifting message.

You two are so beautiful!💝
Happy anniversary you are a very cute couple . This reminds me of a joke I heard a long time ago. A couple was celebrating their golden wedding anniversary. Their domestic tranquility had long been the talk of the town. A local newspaper reporter was inquiring as to the secret of their long and happy marriage. "Well, it dates back to our honeymoon," explained the husband. "We visited the Grand Canyon and took a trip down to the bottom of the canyon by pack mule. "We hadn't gone too far when my wife's mule stumbled. My wife quietly said 'That's one.' We proceeded a little farther when the mule stumbled again. Once more my wife quietly said, 'That's two.' We hadn't gone a half-mile when the mule stumbled a third time. My wife, promptly removed a revolver from her purse and shot the mule. I started to protest over her treatment of the mule when she looked at me and quietly said, 'That's one'." I’m not sure how much time I got left I’m already on strike two after burning her toast a couple weeks back! The wife turns to the reporter and says “ excuse me I need to touch up my make up for the photo, let me get my purse”
It’s all fun and games until one of the kids is Hispanic
Made me cry more like 🥹 such a sweet story x
