A list of puns related to "First interracial kiss on television"
The episode of TOS, Plato's Stepchildren, has long been debated as the first televised instance of an interracial kiss. There are many interesting stories told of this moment by Nichelle Nichols and William Shatner, one of which is they were ordered to do a take without the kiss and Shatner ruined this by crossing his eyes at the camera, ensuring that the only take they had was of the kiss. The shot as it originally aired:

My family always brings up how the Stones got in a lot of trouble back in 1969 when Mick Jagger kissed Merry Clayton during their performance of Gimmie Shelter and it was considered the first televised band to show an interracial kiss a year after it was shown on a television program. However nowhere does it show they actually kissed back then in the live videos. Family's really having a Mandela Effect moment now. The song lyrics do say "just a kiss away".
Here's a video of her discussing helping the stones create the song https://youtu.be/ChONufP0FEs
