So-called "interracial marriage" is also encouraged in the Bahá'í teachings, which stress the essential oneness of the human race.

Baha'i International Community, 1992, Magazine - The Baha'is

…the principle of the oneness of mankind prevents any true Bahá'í from regarding race itself as a bar to union …

For both Bahá'u'lláh and 'Abdu'l-Bahá never disapproved of the idea of interracial marriage, nor discouraged it. The Bahá'í Teachings, indeed, by their very nature transcend all limitations imposed by race, and as such can and should never be identified with any particular school of racial philosophy.
