Abstract: 2017 marked the fiftieth anniversary a/Loving v. Virginia, the landmark Supreme Court decision that invalidated bans on miscegenation and interracial marriages.In the years since Loving was decided, it remains a subject of intense scholarly debate and attention.The conventional wisdom suggests that the Court's decision in Loving was hugely transformativedecriminalizing interracial marriages and relationships and removing the most pernicious legal barriers to such couplings.But other developments suggest otherwise.
