  In November of 2001, the state of Alabama opened a referendum on its constitutional prohibition against interracial marriage. This book explains how and why, nearly forty years after the height of the Civil Rights movement, Alabama struggled to repeal its prohibitions against interracial marriage - the last state in the Union to do so.
