Interracial Couple Denied Wedding Ceremony Due to Race
October 16th, 2009
Is this 2009 or 1939?
An interracial couple in Louisiana had their wedding license denied by a justice of the peace because he believes the children of black and white parents have it harder in life.
Justice Keith Bardwell, who has served Tangipahoa Parish, for more than 30 years told Terence McKay, 32, and his fiance Beth Humphrey 30, that he morally could not issue a marriage license for the couple.
“I don’t do interracial marriages because I don’t want to put children in a situation they didn’t bring on themselves. In my heart, I feel the children will later suffer, ” said Bardwell to a reporter from the Hammond Daily Star.
The couple were married by another justice of the peace.
The NAACP and American Civil Liberty Union are investigating.
