Wisconsin Historical Society to Host 'The Loving Story' March 4

The Wisconsin Historical Society will host the second film in a four-part series on civil rights. Selected segments of "The Loving Story" will be accompanied by a post-screening discussion by Professor Tonya Brito of the University of Wisconsin-Madison Law School. The film tells of a biracial couple who Virginia authorities arrested in 1958 for violating the state's law prohibiting interracial marriage. The U.S. Supreme Court later overturned the law, striking down all state miscegenation laws.
