  • Genetic Factors Drive the Link Between Cognitive Ability and Socioeconomic Status

    American Renaissance - Mar 13th 2026 5:05pm EDT

    A new study published in Scientific Reports suggests that the connection between a young adult’s cognitive ability and their future socioeconomic status is largely driven by their genes. The findings provide evidence that genetic factors play a larger role in educational and occupational success than environmental conditions. This underlying biology may help explain why some […]

  • Race and Psychopathic Personality

    American Renaissance - Oct 12th 2025 9:00am EDT

    Credit Image: Lou Jones/ZUMAPRESS.com For as long as official statistics have been kept, blacks in white societies have been overrepresented in all indices of social pathology: crime, illegitimacy, poverty, school failure, and long-term unemployment. The conventional liberal explanation for this is white “racism,” past and present, which has forced blacks into self-destructive choices. More clear-headed […]

  • The Intelligent Person’s Guide to Race & Racial Differences

    American Renaissance - Sep 28th 2025 9:00am EDT

    Race has been discussed to the point of weariness, yet most discussion consists of little more than wishful thinking, contradiction, and outright malice: “All the races are equal, but whites oppress everyone else. Then again, race doesn’t really exist, which is why we must strive for greater racial diversity.” It is understandable that many people […]

  • Sasha Gusev Is Wrong

    American Renaissance - Jun 24th 2025 1:23pm EDT

    He is wrong. But give him some credit. Unlike most racial egalitarians, Sasha Gusev supports his ad hominem attacks on hereditarians with arguments. While many of those arguments are fallacious or empirically dubious, they are still arguments, and arguments, unlike insults or moral denunciations, can be refuted. In a recent example, Gusev reproved “racism Twitter” for […]

    {snip} As a growing body of research reveals, Black people in the United States suffer the hallucinations and delusions of psychosis — the voices that seem to emanate from outside a person’s head, the visions, the paranoias, the breaks with common reality — at a rate roughly twice that of white people. In Europe, racial […]

  • Mental Health’s Blind Spot

    American Renaissance - Jun 10th 2024 4:57pm EDT

    In recent years, mental health in America has been a growing concern. But even as awareness has grown, many practitioners overlook important issues. Much of this is related to the field’s political bias, which leads researchers and therapists to ignore entire clinical populations. One example involves race. Left-leaning researchers have spent decades focusing on racial […]
