English professor Salamishah Tillet apparently missed the history course where they covered life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Still, is anyone surprised anymore when leftists resort to cries of racism?

It never ends.

Robby Soave of The Daily Caller has the story.

UPenn professor: Racist GOP opposes abortion to protect white supremacy

Republicans oppose abortion because they fear losing the white majority in America, claimed a University of Pennsylvania professor.

Salamishah Tillet, an associate English professor at UPenn, made the comments during a recent appearance on MSNBC. She said that Republicans didn’t like abortion because they want white people to have more babies and perpetuate the race, according to Newsmax.

“Women’s bodies, white women’s bodies in particular, are a crucial way of reproducing whiteness, white supremacy, white privilege,” she said.

Kirsten Powers of Fox News criticized Tillet’s argument, pointing out that black women have far more abortions than white women.

“If you were a white supremacist, you would actually support abortion,” said Powers.

Tillet also teaches in two other departments at UPenn: Africana Studies and Gender, Sexuality, and Women’s Studies. She is the author of “Sites of Slavery: Citizenship and Racial Democracy in the Post-Civil Rights Imagination.”

The editors of The College Fix argue that Tillet’s views on Republicans and race should concern conservatives..

“Tillet is shaping the hearts and minds of students through the classes she teaches,” wrote The College Fix. “Young, impressionable minds hear Tillet’s point of view on race and gender all semester long, and it’s not a stretch to assume the opinions she proffered on national television are similar to the ones she gives inside her Africana and women’s studies classes. And then we wonder why the GOP is seen as bad guys by college-aged voters?”
