“I am proud that Richard’s and my name is on a court case that can help reinforce the love, the commitment, the fairness, and the family that so many people, black or white, young or old, gay or straight seek in life. I support the freedom to marry for all. That’s what Loving, and loving, are all about.”
Mildred Loving, who with her husband won the 1967 Supreme Court case that overturned laws against interracial marriage, in a June 2007 statement about the case. Loving, 68, died May 2; her husband preceded her in death. (New York Times, May 3)
