I believe in recognizing every human being as a human being--neither white, black, brown, or red; and when you are dealing with humanity as a family there's no question of integration or intermarriage. It's just one human being marrying another human being or one human being living around and with another human being. Malcolm X
About This Quote

The concept of marriage between two people who are not of the same race is becoming more common. However, this is not because people are being forced to marry. The world today is very different from the world of years past. Issues such as poverty, discrimination, and social standing are things that most people do not have control over. While it may be hard to surrender your prejudice against someone different than you, it is important to remember that the person you are marrying has feelings that are just as important as your own.
