Kentucky professor links pro-life movement to ‘white nationalism’ in upcoming book
A professor at the University of Kentucky ties the pro-life movement to “white nationalism and authoritarian populism” in a book to be published next month.
Carol Mason’s From the Clinics to the Capitol: How Opposing Abortion Became Insurrectionary argues that the rise of the pro-life cause intersects with anti-democratic movements, such as the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol.
According to the description page on the University of California Press website, the author perceives insincerity in the pro-life arguments. Specifically, the book claims that “white nationalism and authoritarian populism have taken hold in America under the guise of opposing abortion.”
“Antiabortion stories, images, and policies have primed Americans to embrace attitudes and politics once deemed extreme,” the description says. “Abroad, US antiabortion tactics, personnel, and funds have contributed to a global rise of the Right.”
Carol Mason is a professor of Gender and Women’s Studies at Kentucky. Her research interests include “critical studies of whiteness,” “race and reproduction,” “theories of gender and sexuality,” and “Right-Wing Movements.”
In From Clinics to the Capitol, Mason also investigates the last fifty years of “primary antiabortion sources.”
“Reflecting on her thirty years of analyzing the intersections of race, reproduction, and right-wing movements, Carol Mason examines primary antiabortion sources that influenced political currents of the last fifty years,” the description continues.
“From Cold War conspiracism and apocalyptic fundamentalism to anti-statist terrorism, Tea Party populism, and MAGA insurrection, opposing abortion has come to imperil democracy worldwide,” it notes.

Some much shiest so little time. This woman is an idiot and I doubt she’s useful for anything.
Logic from the mind of a professor teaching a Styrofoam major. I wonder if this book was written in response to the “publish or perish” requirement?
To the extent that “white nationalism” encompasses deplatforming racist loons like Carol Mason, I’m down with it.
I would think – if anything – that the pro-choice movement would be the White Nationalist one. Who gets the highest percentage of abortions? Non-whites.
Margaret Sanger expressly started planned parenthood to kill blacks.
Exactly my thought. The latest data I could find was 2022 and 60% of abortions were black or hispanic. 31% were white, the rest were other. So it seems abortion helps white nationalists quite a bit.
Do you have a link? Your succinct response would make a nice, in-your-face ‘copy and paste’, with back-up.

A classic case of projection from a member of the party that gave us the KKK…
SS how does the good Dr. Mason explain this? Aren’t palestinians “brown,” and therefore angels capable of doing no wrong? So does that mean that her “critical” study might now be accurate.
From the Jewish Insider 6/27/2025:
A group of pro-Palestinian, anti-abortion activists disrupted an abortion rights rally outside the Supreme Court on Thursday, at which the leaders of multiple Jewish organizations were present.
The rally, organized by Planned Parenthood, included representation from the National Council of Jewish Women, Women of Reform Judaism and the Union for Reform Judaism. Video of the start of the counterprotest reviewed by Jewish Insider, as well as accounts from NCJW’s chief of staff, Jake Green, and another witness who spoke to JI, shows two activists chanting “ceasefire in Gaza and the womb.”
“It was something I haven’t experienced before, which was really quite surprising to be there and see the like anti-abortion protesters show up, and specifically hear them chanting things like ‘Ceasefire in Gaza, ceasefire in the womb,’” Green said. “It was [strange] to see them in keffiyehs doing that.”
White Nationalists love abortion, because it reduces the black percentage of the population.
The Nazis were anti-abortion only for Aryan women; they supported abortion for non-Aryans. The penalty for aborting an Aryan baby was harsh, but abortionists caught in Germany aborting a non-Aryan baby were simply deported to occupied territory where they could ply their trade on Untermenschen.
but unlike the nazis no one is forcing women to have the abortions
with the minor exception being the dems who DO PUSH the abortion message
so it gets right back to .. wee see who the real nazis are and it is once again ,,the dems
and abortion into the black nationalist movement
