The Loving Story: Film Screening – Thursday, July 26th 6:00pm

You are invited to join Producer and Editor Elisabeth Haviland James, the ACLU of SC and the Avery Research Center for a special screening of The Loving Story. This file recounts the story of the Lovings, Mildred (who was part black and Native American) and Richard (who was white), whose marriage was declared illegal in their home state of Virginia. The Lovings refused to leave their homes or one another.  This film recreates a seminal moment in history and reflects a timely message of marriage equality in a moment in a personal, human love story.
