Interracial relations in the US have reached an all-time high, with a record 1 in 12 weddings taking place between people from different racial backgrounds.
These figures indicate that attitudes towards Interracial marriage have changed dramatically. In the United States it was just 43 years ago when interracial marriage was made fully legal in all 50 states. Today, in many countries, interracial marriage is commonplace and most don’t even give it a second thought. Interracial marriage can convey a relationship between a Black and an Caucasian, a Hispanic and an Asian, etc.
