A study has identified over 70 modern-day lynchings across seven states: Texas, Mississippi, Georgia, Louisiana, Florida, Tennessee, and Alabama. Inspired by Ida B. Wells’ historic “A Red Record,” which documented lynchings in the 19th century, Julian’s “Crimson Record” offers an in-depth analysis of modern-day lynchings from 2000 to 2025. Challenging reports that the last lynching in the US took place in 1981, the civil rights organization’s analysis “reveals recurring patterns of violence, systemic neglect, and law enforcement misconduct that echo the racial terror of earlier eras.” Source: The Grio
