Description
When Alice Jones, a blue-color woman with at least one Black parent marries Leonard "Kip" Rhinelander, the son of one of New York's most prominent society families, the scandal rocks high society - and eventually sets the city afire when Kip later sues for an annulment, accusing Alice of having hidden her "Negro blood" and intentionally deceiving him that she was white.
