What was the issue being litigated in Loving v. Virginia

The issue being litigated in Loving v. Virginia was interracial marriages. The case involved Richard and Mildred Loving, a mixed-race couple, who were sentenced to a year in prison for marrying, as Virginia law at the time prohibited interracial marriage. The Supreme Court's decision in 1967 ultimately invalidated laws banning interracial marriage, declaring them unconstitutional.
