Then write a paper addressing the following issues:
1.What is the one-drop rule?
2.What are antimiscegenation laws? What was their purpose? What do these laws tell us about the meaning of families?
3.Why are children with a white parent and a black parent typically labeled black? Why might this be different for other racial combinations?
4.What implications do these old laws have for multiracial families today?

Please include a brief abstract page as that is apart of APA format as well as a title page. Also please use two more sources other than the video. Please do NOT give brief answers and use proper in-text citations.
