With American society seeming to divide more and more as each day goes by, the country needs people who are solid and their beliefs and morals to step up and fight for the truth as well as be bold! One of the most outspoken and popular individuals that fit that description right now is a man named Charles J. Kirk. He is from Arlington Heights, Illinois, a suburb of Chicago. Kirk is well-known for being a conservative political activist, author, talk show host, and YouTuber. Since his high school years, Kirk actively engaged in politics, supporting local politicians and campaigning against things in his school such as price increases in school cafeteria food. His ambition and knowledge were gaining the attention of many people including Tea Party member Bill Montgomery. Through Montgomery’s influence, Kirk was inspired to found what would be one of his biggest accomplishments and impacts to society, Turning Point USA (TPUSA) TPUSA is a nonprofit student organization aimed at advocating for conservative politics on high school, college, and university campuses. Since its start, it has grown exponentially, attracting several doners who have helped propel the organization forward! In recent years, Kirk has gained popularity in regard to his promotion of Donald Trump, and his views on other controversial topics such as COVID-19, critical race theory, and climate change. Though he has grown more popular, not all that know of him agree with his views or even like him. Kirk is known for his strong opposition of liberal education and democratic party. Kirk remains respectful in his opinions but is never afraid to back down from a debate and express what he believes to be the truth about life. He spends much of his time now touring college and university campuses around the country educating students on the current condition of our country and how they can actively be a part of making a better America and honoring God through it all!
I am excited to see Turning Point USA and Charlie Kirk mentioned here. I have watched some of his interviews on college campuses and have really appreciated his work. From what I have seen he is respectful of people who do not agree with him and is unafraid to speak of controversial things. He is credited with making a huge impact this past month!
Here is a link to what is available for colleges! I know of a possible faculty sponsor if there are GCC students willing to get one started! https://www.tpusastudents.com/college
Charlie Kirk is someone who I have lightly follower for many years, espically when Donald Trump was in office I would often see him in interviews and he held him self very well considering he is only 31 years old. Great post! Nice content!
Charlie Kirk is such a cool guy. I always forget how young he is because he has such a huge following and has already done so much with his life. He is doing really great things for our country.
