 Back Talk on Miscegenation
In his talk on the "Concept of Race," he pointed out that the only reason interracial dating and miscegenation are not more prominent is because of the social and cultural isolation of races.
Morality is according to one authority the "manners, customs, or patterns of behavior that conform to the standards of the group." The "group" does not perceive inter-racial marriages, miscegenation, as the norm...accepted behavior.
It must be noted, however, that the children of an interracial marriage are the only victims of miscegenation.

 Asian American Empowerment: ModelMinority.com - The Passions of Suzie Wong Revisited
Nevertheless, during the circus-like climate surrounding the O.J. Simpson murder trial in L.A. County, discussion abounded on AM talk radio concerning the perils of race-mixing with hosts regularly fielding calls from angered listeners as to whether this proves that anti- miscegenation laws should make a comeback.
Miscegenation, while rarely spoken of favourably aloud was common between Indigenous women and Portuguese males from the very beginning.
The prevalent structure of the new miscegenation is between White men and Asian women, not the other way around.

 LILEKS (James) :: The Bleat
You want to talk Trek, you talk Next Generation, and that means Whoopi Goldberg in a cardboard hat and a warship with a daycare center.
The true finale was the second part of “Terra Prime.” Trip and T’Pol have had some genetic material stolen to create a cloned baby to warn Earth against the horrors of interspecies miscegenation – again, Trek confronts the issues of the day – and the kid doesn’t make it.
It had a boring relationship – modern Trek is generally incapable of portraying romance, and the relationship between Hotheaded Devil-May-Care Tom Paris and sullen, sour, uber-bitchy half-Klingon W’hatzrname was never believable.

Johnson ultimately lost his title in a bout in Cuba in 1915, after fleeing the United States following his federal conviction for allegedly violating the Mann Act, a progressive-era law intended to crack down on commercialized vice but used against Johnson to create an example against, to quote the prosecutor, "the evils of miscegenation."
Boxer JACKIE FRAZIER-LYDE joins us to talk about her debut match and why in her late 30's she decided to take up her father's profession.

 The Next Hurrah: How to Talk to Gays about Marriage
That goes right to the heart of something I wanted to comment on that is missing from the article, and is absent from your post as well: anti-miscegenation laws.
As a straight who spent five months working with folks who were almost all gay, I had the privilege of being kind of an anthropologist moving among the GLBT community, and the idea that the community is pushing some untenable positions that will cause Democrats to march off a cliff is bullshit.
Gay marriage is not even an important issue to me. This is not about gay marriage.

 Reason & Liberty: NAACP LDF head: critics of gay marriage ruling are hypocritical
Ted Shaw, head of the NAACP Legal Defense Fund and a successor to the mantle of Thurgood Marshall, gave a refreshing talk today at the law school, where he once taught and where he always returns to a warm reception.
Invoking Scripture, some black clergy have been among the most outspoken opponents of gay marriage, apparently forgetting or overlooking the religious arguments that were widely asserted against interracial marriage before the Supreme Court struck down anti-miscegenation laws.
In the current political climate, it was salutary to hear someone remind us of the noble and historic role that courts have played in the struggle for civil rights, and of how many people like him went to law school (and still do) because they revere the law as a way of creating social change.

 Cultural Cybernetics talk (4S 2000)
Similarly, Hayles’ insistence that psychoanalytic truths trump cybernetics is at best an analog to the U.S. Supreme court’s Dred Scott ruling, maintaining racial segregation under the motto, “separate but equal.” Under this analogy, Cultural cybernetics should offer the STS equivalent of racial pollution; encouraging the crime of miscegenation between technoscience and society.
Contrary to Hayles claim that the early cybernetics movement lost its radical potential due to lack of reflexive insight, I think the failure of cybernetics to fulfill its promise of monsters is in part due to the internal political division between the opposing camps of Wiener and John von Neumann during the 1950s.
The lingua franca of cybernetics is information; and the discipline of cybernetics was explicitly created to show how natural and artificial domains can be exchanged through this medium (figure 2).

Fresh Talk/Daring Gazes chronicles the blossoming of Asian American art and anticipates the growing democratization of American art and culture.
Pairing work by twenty-four contemporary Asian American visual artists with responses provocatively drawn from cultural critics, other artists, activists, and intellectuals, this book explores themes of geographical movement, the sexuality of Asian bodies, colonization, miscegenation, hybrid forms of immigrant cultures, the loss of home, war, history, and memory.
Each of his installations is a mix of sonic, sculptural and pictorial elements carefully calculated to reveal unexpected relationships between a wide variety of cultural and historical phenomena…

Though legendary for the silver-tongued geniality with which he confronts hard-as-nails racial issues, I daresay not even Sailer can talk his way out of this one.
Miscegenation destroys irreversibly and utterly that which took Nature tens of thousands of years to create and which our ancestors fought and died to preserve.
The popular Vdare.com columnist has announced to the world that he is going to write an article that will almost certainly earn him the undying hatred of one or more of the ideological, ethnic and racial power blocs currently jockeying for warlordship over the broken pieces of our disintegrating republic.
