Interracial marriages have been allowed in the United States for almost half a century, but the American public still does not fully accept them and understands: the degree of racism is very high, it is present in the lives of many Americans. This is what Donna Pinkley's "Sticks and Stones" photo project is about.

Pinkley photographed a variety of interracial couples of all ages in her native Arkansas and other southern states — Mississippi, Tennessee and Louisiana, and then supplemented the pictures with angry comments that the characters received in their address.

Sticks and Stones is not a project about how we complicate each other's lives. This is a series about true love.
