interracial couples
Cross-ethnic romantic pairs
Interracial couples are romantic partners of different races.
The term became common during and after the civil rights era, when laws against interracial marriage were struck down in the United States.
It now appears neutrally in discussions of demographics, dating, and family: The neighborhood has many interracial couples.
Sometimes shortened to interracial: Are they interracial?
