Orchidislander, you're welcome and thank you.
Boggles the mind to consider that it wasn't until two years after the march referenced in the linked story above that state laws barring so-called interracial marriage were finally determined to be unconstitutional by the Supreme Court. What is not so surprising is which solid block of states were the last holdouts to cling to such outrageous laws on the books. Happily, Hawaii has been on the opposite end of the spectrum.
