The ‘family values’ coalition fused Catholic abortion politics with Protestant white supremacy.

Evidence

Across this bridge, the lines of cultural influence flowed in both directions. White Catholics carried abortion politics into the white conservative Protestant camp, where it was melded with antigay sentiment to create the peculiar alchemy of “family values.” As I demonstrate in chapter 4, they also carried with them a particularly northern and urban brand of white supremacy. And the white Protestant Christian Right offered to legitimize their new political allies’ claims to the coveted categories of whiteness and mainstream Christianity. — Robert P.
