In the Supreme Court case Loving v. Virginia a law that banned interracial marriage was declared unconstitutional. Judicial interpretations changed as a result of change in the ideologies of the justices, and citizen petitions of equality between white and black people.

The case Loving v, Virginia was a judicial case on civil rights, brought before the Supreme Court of the United States, which in its judgment established jurisprudence invalidating the laws that prohibited interracial marriage in the United States.

In the case, Mildred Loving, a black woman, and Richard Loving, a white man, had been sentenced to one year in jail in Virginia for marrying. Their marriage violated the anti-miscegenation laws of the State, the Racial Integrity Act of 1924, which prohibited all marriage between persons classified as "white" with persons classified as "colored". The Supreme Court unanimously ruled that such a ban was unconstitutional, reversing the ruling in Pace v. Alabama (1883) and ending all legal restrictions on marriage based on race in the country.

The ruling caused an increase in interracial marriages in the United States and is commemorated annually every June 12 with the Loving Day.
