| | Amazon.ca: Race Mixing : Black-White Marriage in Postwar America: Books: Renee C. Romano (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30) |
 | | Romano, a white professor of African American studies who is married to a fl man, examines the deeply embedded taboo of interracial marriage in the U.S. Citing studies, surveys, court accounts, media coverage, and interviews with interracial couples, Romano explores how attitudes have evolved, eventually eroding that taboo, within the last 60 years. |
 | | It's the perfect story of an American GI and English sweetheart, but the GI is 'Black' so every 'White' functionary (including taxi drivers) attempt to dissuade our fair Juliet from consummating her desires. |
 | | *Race Mixing* discusses the legal, social, and cultural history of interracial marriage, explores ideas of marriage and family in both the fl and white communities, and presents the testimony of interracial couples who faced racism and social sanction in addition to all the other pressures inherent in building a marriage. |
