Their struggle culminated in a landmark Supreme Court decision, Loving v. Virginia (1967). Discussion Leader: Kori Graves, Assistant Professor, University at Albany.
The Created Equal: America's Civil Rights Struggle series is made possible with support from the National Endowment for the Humanities and the Gilder Lehrman Institute of American History.
