Edith + Eddie: America's Oldest Interracial Couple

On this Christmas day, we thought it fitting to remind everyone of the wonderful documentary, "Edith + Eddie."  This heartfelt film by filmmaker Laura Checkoway was a front runner for an Oscar in 2018 and when you watch it, you'll see why.

The story begins with Edith and Eddie's deep love for each other.  And although their love never died, their lives changed forever when guardianship interfered with their devotion and their final days together.
