The anti-abortion movement tries many tactics — guilt, misinformation, assuring women they're smart and capable enough, more guilt — but one of the latest permutations has been framing abortion as a racial issue. Some anti-abortion activists are framing legal abortion as a way to deter black women's reproduction. The latest example is this billboard hanging in New York City's highly trafficked SoHo neighborhood which reads, "The most dangerous place for an African-American is in the womb." The billboard was posted by the Texas-based anti-abortion group, Life Always, The New York Times reports, conveniently timed for Black History Month.
