Henry and Rochelle Ford, who met as teenagers in the 1950s, talk about their marriage of 52 years, and the instances of prejudice they have faced as an interracial couple over the years.
I am happy to see an interracial marriage last so long. I am black and have only seen two like this. My mom and I had an interesting conversation about interracial relationships and she stated have I ever seen an older black and white couple who had been married a long time and at the time I said no because I had not. I always thought they broke up and did not work out. This is encouraging.
please stop marriage white & black, because white population very little and become extinct. black people are better suited to marry asian people, because asian population 4.5 Billion
A sick society that we live in. Look at people and let them amaze you for who they are. Look beyond a persons ethnicity, the pigmentation of their skin or preconceived ideas. Everyone has something to offer. We should offer to each other a ton of respect, empathy and understanding. Congratulations to your perseverance.
I love you omg see how they looking awesome 52 years together until now it's not easy. She said, i decide to spend my entire life with him this is called "true love"
This is beautiful, my husband and I will celebrate 50 years next year, their story is our story. The world will hopefully be color bind someday I pray!
I wonder what year it was when he was doing football professionally but also was seeing her and was asked to choose one of the two. also, I'd like to know more about their story their life their personal life and to professional life after they got married where they settled or did they move around for a bit bc it marriages were not accepted/ possibly even illegal (in some/ many states)' when they got married. Did they have kids, what they generally taught their kids about race
Oh my goodness she looks STUNNING ! I bet being happily married that long have a lot to do with that radiance. I have maintained that the greatest thing in life is to love and be loved, very few are able to experience that in their lifetime. RACE does not matter in TRUE LOVE.
Here’s a really interesting story written about the couple. They live in Palo Alto, California. studentpress.org/nspa/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/GrayAreaStory.pdf

MIRACLE you both survived all the nasty remarks,insults,name calling,even violent assault that comes with a interracial marriage.I don't see ,how in the world. a black man,can keep his cool,in a white man's world - where he is stereo typed,lambasted, and seen as inferior by all the other races. He has to fight for respect - many times from the use of his fists.

There are many interracial couples who have been married for many years. This couple is not unique.

They are from the same race -- THE HUMAN RACE!!
They really had some trials. Is she jewish? Looks Jewish.

I think she is mixed race. She should of done a DNA test
Yep somebody definitely did some dipping in the gene pool and started passing as white because she look mixed race.
