text: Firstly, happy cake day, have an upvote. Secondly, it's not really old, but my grandparents are both Hispanic, my grandfather very dark skinned and my grandmother more spanish (light skin, green eyes). When they first started dating, my grandfather took her to a movie, she went to sit in the "whites only" section because no one questioned her appearance. My grandfather told her he couldn't sit there and that he had to go to the "colored" area at the back of the theater. She didn't want to sit in the back so they sat at different ends of the theater for the movie.
