I was just reading an article about Taye Diggs and his wife Idina Menzel receving threatening letters about their marriage in 2004. He is African-American and she is Jewish-American (I believe), and the letters were threatening bodily harm against him because they are in an "interracial" marriage. That word really bugs me, I don't know why, probably because it really sounds like such a label, when marriage is supposed to be about love and building a future and family, regardless of your heritage or social background, or race. Anyway, I was just wondering what peoples opinions are about these types of threats, and if people think it is still prevelant in the US? What do you all think about this situation? Personally it makes me sick that someone would send such a letter to anyone, famous or not, its just disgusting and bigotry at its worst, not to mention really none of their business.
