Panda Action 50 years ago in America

Leon Brazile a trial judge was quoted as saying,

"Almighty God created the races white, black, yellow, malay and red, and he placed them on separate continents. And but for the interference with his arrangement there would be no cause for such marriages. The fact that he separated the races shows that he did not intend for the races to mix."

The white black married couple pleaded guilty miscegenation in Virgina in 1959. Sentenced to 25 years in jail. Suspended if they agreed to leave the state. Their case evolved into Loving v. Virginia. Raising humanity in the west a few notches.
