Since the Supreme Court decriminalized interracial marriages in 1967, the percentage of American married couples who are interracial or interethnic has increased dramatically. Currently, 1 in 10 American couples are interracial.

Host Sheryl McCarthy talks with Erica Chito Childs, Professor of Sociology at Hunter College and The CUNY Graduate Center. She has studied the experiences of interracial couples and how communities respond to their relationships. And her findings shed light on the extent to which race relations in this country have, and have not, changed.
