Note these numbers refer to both interracial relationships and same-race Hispanic/non-Hispanic relationships, or what the US Census Bureau considers as interethnic marriages. If only interracial relationships are considered, the corresponding numbers for interracial couples are 6.9 percent of all heterosexual married couples, 14.2 percent of unmarried different-sex couples, and 14.5 percent of same-sex couples.

60. Mildred Loving, who was from the triracial community of Hunter’s Point, Virginia, was of mixed Native American and African ancestry, and recent scholarship has revealed that she defined herself as Indian rather than black. Indeed, Arica Coleman argues that from Lovings’ own perspective, their marriage adhered to Virginia law, which allowed marriages between whites and some Native Americans. Outsiders, however, including the media and the courts, defined Mildred Loving as black, and the 1967 case of Loving v. Virginia was viewed at the time as affirming the rights of blacks and whites to marry. For more on this issue, see Arica Coleman, That the Blood Stay Pure: African Americans, Native Americans,
