Kathleen Belew on White Power Movement, Abortion Rhetoric

University of Chicago historian Kathleen Belew argues that the white power movement views social issues like abortion and immigration through the lens of white reproduction threats. According to this perspective, opposition to abortion is driven by a desire to increase the white population rather than religious or moral convictions. This analysis is criticized for ignoring the demographic reality that abortion affects various ethnic groups.
