Curiously, most modern (overt) racists seems to think Black
women breed altogether too much.  My own perception of anti-
choice anti-abortionist ideology is that it often seems to
emanate from identification with the (probably male) fetus;
can a White racist identify with a presumably Black fetus?
If a lot of anti-abortionists _are_ racists, there's an
interesting contradiction here.
