[edit] Also, I should have specified "American television," since I don't know if there were interracial kisses on other countries' TV networks or not.
Furthermore, the 'taboo' of white and black actors kissing had already been broken by Buckwheat from the The Little Rascals (though that first aired as films) and NBC itself: Nancy Sinatra and Sammy Davis, Jr. kissed in the 1967 TV special Movin' with Nancy (though on British television the event had happened even earlier, in the 1964 hospital drama Emergency Ward 10).
