History repeating? Yes. The Importance of...: The Anti-Miscegenation Amendment: "'Intermarriage between whites and blacks is repulsive and averse to every sentiment of pure American spirit. It is abhorrent and repugnant. It is subversive to social peace. It is destructive of moral supremacy, and ultimately this slavery to black beasts will bring this nation to a fatal conflict' (Gilmore, 1975, p.108)." Rep. Seaborn Roddenberry of Georgia in 1911 on a constitutional amendment to ban interracial marriages. That's right, they tried to amend the constitution to ban interracial marriage. They claimed to speak for America, they claimed to speak for morality, and they claimed it would destroy "social peace". Now only the fringe speaks this way about interracial marriage. It was wrong then and this current amendment is wrong now. The world will not end, and we will not lose our morality, such as it is. Dogs will not marry cats and clogs will not marry hats.
