about 40 years ago i heard on 60 minutes

i heard a term for the antiquated (i guess it’s antiquated . . . who knows?) belief that a white woman who has sexual relations with a black man can then give birth to a black baby at any time in the future . . . say, after being impregnated by a white man. i remember the term began with a “t” but can’t remember the word. can anyone help?

That kind of ignorance dies hard.
