| | |  interracial marriage: Encyclopedia II - Politics of the Southern United States - Early political historyEarly in the 19th century, the South's economy became focused nearly exclusively on agriculture, which was largely supported by slavery. Due to the region's agricultural success, the South became integral to the political history of the United States, with many of the United States' early military and political leaders (including nine of its first twelve presidents) coming from the Southern United States.
However, by the middle of the 19th century sectional differences surrounding the issues of slavery, taxation, tariffs, and states' ...

| | | | interracial marriage: Encyclopedia II - Show Boat - Racism and Controversy
Show Boat - Integration.
Show Boat boldly portrayed racial difficulties, and for a 1927 show it was quite progressive in doing so. It was the first racially integrated musical, in that both black and white performers appeared on-stage together [3]. Ziegfeld’s Follies allowed single African American performers like Bert Williams, but would never have had an African American woman in the chorus. However, S ...

| | | | interracial marriage: Encyclopedia II - Seretse Khama - Marriage and exile In June of 1947, Seretse Khama met Ruth Williams, an English clerk at Lloyd's of London, and after a year of courtship, married her. The interracial marriage sparked immediate furor among both the apartheid government of South Africa and the tribal elders of the Bamangwato. On being informed of the marriage, Seretse’s uncle Tshekedi Khama demanded his return to Bechuanaland and the annulment of the marriage. However, Seretse returned to Serowe and after a series of public meetings, was re-affirmed by the elders in his role as the Kgosi. Ru ...

| | | | interracial marriage: Encyclopedia II - One-drop theory - History While various forms of this approach to race have likely existed since "race" became a prominent way of thinking about human variations, the "one-drop theory" formally came out of the context of the early 20th century United States. Some Americans began to adopt the one-drop notion of invisible Blackness informally in the 1840s in the North, the 1870s in the upper South, and the 1890s in the lower South. But it was not legislated into law in any state until the 1910s (Tennessee, Louisiana, Texas, Arkansas, Mississippi) and the 1920s (North C ...

| | | | interracial marriage: Encyclopedia II - Same-sex marriage - Current status of same-sex civil marriage In the late 20th and early 21st centuries, there has been a growing movement in a number of countries to regard civil-marriages as a right which should be extended to all citizens regardless of sexual orientation. Civil-marriages entail a wide range of entitlements, including social security, health insurance, taxation, inheritance and other benefits unavailable to couples unmarried in the eyes of the law. Restricting legal recognition to opposite-sex couples excludes same-sex couples from gaining legal access to these benefits. Similarly, t ...

| | | | interracial marriage: Encyclopedia II - Southern United States - History While Southern history stretches back to prehistoric times, the unique culture of the South primarily has its origins with the settlement of the region by British colonists in the early 17th century. Many of the immigrants who moved to the South were of European Celtic origins; according to an 1860 census, "three-quarters of white Southerners had surnames that were Scottish, Irish or Welsh in origin." [1] These people mixed culturally with the Native Americans who were already in the region ( ...

| | | | interracial marriage: Encyclopedia II - Curse and mark of Cain - The curse and mark of Cain in the Bible The Bible refers to the curse of Cain in the fourth chapter of the Book of Genesis. This passage describes two brothers, Cain and Abel. Cain, the oldest, "worked the soil", while Abel raised sheep. (Book of Genesis 4:2). Eventually, each of the brothers performed a sacrifice to YHWH; Cain sacrificed some of his crops to the god, while Abel sacrificed "fat portions from some of the firstborn of his flock". (Gen. 4:4.)

| | | | interracial marriage: Encyclopedia II - Alabama Constitution - Notable features The inordinate length is both because of and the cause of heavy centralization of government power in the state capital, Montgomery, leaving very little authority to local units. Counties cannot even legislate on local issues, requiring the state legislature, and ipso facto uninvolved parts of the state, to pass local laws. The same holds true for taxation, a large portion of which is written into the constitution, necessitating its amendment over minor taxation issues. This can (and has) resulted in times when a local county or municipality ...
