Oldster here, cool couple and brave for the times.
>The last state to repeal its laws against interracial marriage was Alabama in 2000….
In the United States, i**nterracial marriage was banned in nearly a third of all states up until 50 years ago. However, that changed overnight following the 1967 Supreme Court decision in Loving v. Virginia,** which declared state bans on interracial marriage unconstitutional and legalized interracial marriage in every state. The Respect for Marriage Act was introduced to address the issue of interracial marriage.
You know these two are hard af. Being in an interracial relationship in the 60s was no joke. They dont just look cool as shit, they definitely are/were.

60’s Blade 🗡️😎
An actual “Old School Cool” post and not some weird Redditor with an Oedipus Complex showing off his mum. Cheers!
Was this before or after he slew a club full of vampires?
Can we get a picture of them now?
Wow, they are beautiful.
How did their lives and marriage go?
I didn’t know Marilyn Monroe met Jamie Foxx
Man, this might be one of the coolest photos yet
Stylish!

Oh nice! That’s love because back then mixed marriages were strongly frowned upon.
I was born in 64 so by 78 when I wanted to date a black man everyone in my family said NO and the kid I liked? His sister wanted to beat me up. 😆
Coolness personified
Your uncle is Blade…
I’m so thankful for these people, because it made my interracial marriage 40 years later normalized.
And now that I’m older, I’m also amazed at how much can change in 40 years, which passes by really quick.
This looks like a high end clothing ad… love this
F*ck me! Was “being cool” their full-time job or what?
“His wife” aka your aunt? Lol
The epitome of “old school cool” lol
The Daywalker

Blades father “Bayonet”
This is prime material for this sub
AI is getting smart, hiding the hands now
Legit super cool.
Your Uncle is the definition of cool.
They obviously didn’t live in Virginia
Everyone says Blade. I see Sidney Poiter and Madonna.
Nice to see a photo that objectively fits the subreddit.
That’s a gorgeous couple
What’s cooler than cool?!
Wow- brave couple, they must have loved each other very much!
