- Description
- AOC and Ayanna Pressley are raising alarms over possible “modern-day lynchings” after Black Americans were found hanging in several cases across the country. Congressional Democrats are calling for DOJ and FBI investigations — but what does the evidence actually show?
Rich Lowry examines the cases behind the “modern-day lynchings” controversy and separates what investigators have established from the broader political rhetoric. He looks at the death of Tasia Fortune, other cases officially ruled suicides, and whether the available evidence supports claims of a widespread resurgence of racist lynchings.

- Description
- Ten years after Colin Kaepernick began kneeling during the national anthem, Rich Lowry argues that his absence from the NFL cannot be explained by activism alone.
The case he makes: Kaepernick’s early success, later performance decline, scheme-specific skill set, and the controversy surrounding his protest all shaped how teams viewed him.

- Poverty Fell. Why Did Crime Rise?
- Runtime

- Description
- Rich Lowry argues that national poverty and crime trends do not move in lockstep: poverty fell across the postwar decades even as violent crime rose into the early 1990s, then crime fell sharply after 1990. The statistics alone do not prove one cause of crime—but they challenge a simple “poverty equals crime” explanation.

- Description
- Ten years after Colin Kaepernick took a knee during the national anthem, the former San Francisco 49ers quarterback is back in the spotlight. Rich Lowry looks at Kaepernick’s NFL career, his national anthem protest, and why the media’s reassessment of his legacy leaves out important parts of the story.
Was Colin Kaepernick pushed out of the NFL because of his activism — or did his declining performance matter, too? Rich examines Kaepernick’s views on policing and criminal justice, the aftermath of George Floyd, and the comparisons to Muhammad Ali, Rosa Parks, and Martin Luther King Jr.
What do you think of Colin Kaepernick’s legacy ten years later? Comment below, like the video, and subscribe to National Review for more from Rich Lowry.

From the Grand Canyon to flooding in Nepal, Rich looks at how climate change is used to explain individual disasters even when the specific causal connection is uncertain. Sometimes a natural disaster is just a natural disaster.

Was nostalgia hiding the darker side of the 1980s, or is Reynolds overlooking a decade of economic growth, renewed American confidence, and the Soviet Union’s decline?

- James Talarico’s attempt to link capitalism with white supremacy has come back to haunt his Texas Senate campaign. Rich Lowry explains why Talarico’s anti-capitalist argument doesn’t just sound radical — it gets the history of capitalism, slavery, and free markets wrong.
From the 1619 Project to the economic divide between the free North and slaveholding South, Lowry takes apart the claim that capitalism is inherently rooted in racial oppression.
