We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives. And we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country. That's why we are here. The word is out. People are abandoning their overpriced wireless carriers and flocking to Peer Talk for the same coverage, but at a fraction of the price. If you're with Verizon AT&T or T Mobile, switching to PeerTalk could save your family over $800 a year. And switching is so easy. You can keep your phone, keep your number, or get huge discounts on the latest iPhones and Androids. Like right now you can get a new iPhone SE forget this. Just $7 a month. Plus right now, take advantage of unlimited talk, text and 6 gigs of data for just $30 a month. And if you go over on data, they don't charge you for it. There's a reason why PeerTalk is the highest rated wireless company by Consumer Affairs. So stop giving your money to overpriced wireless carriers and start saving money from your cell phone. Dial £250 and say, Charlie Kirk, save on your wireless and get a brand new iPhone SE for over $7 a month. That's £250 and say, Charlie Kirk, one question here from Cynthia from South Carolina. The essence of her question is, Charlie, you were mentioning slavery the other day and the legacy of slavery. Can you expound on that? And that's true. I do want to build that out a little bit more. And just so we're clear, everything I'm going to say is basically not allowed to be said on most programs or channels. Not because there's anything wrong with it. It's just everyone, for whatever reason, so afraid to talk about this issue of BLM Incorporated and Critical Race Theory and Race. And the reason why I feel so compelled to speak out against this topic is I saw America dramatically change on this topic in political discourse in the last decade. And I grew up in a set of circumstances, being an upper middle class lifestyle in Wheeling, Illinois, around people of different backgrounds, beliefs, culture and language. Yet there was a very promising unity that I experienced. And now I see that crumbling all around me. And I've already been called all the worst names a human being can be called. So I'm just kind of unafraid to weigh in on these issues. And so I see some conservatives, and I don't mean you listening, but I mean conservatives that are authors or conservatives that are on television and Candace Owens obviously being an exception to this, that are just really afraid to call out this nonsense for what it is. Critical race theory, the bigoted ideas behind the abolition of whiteness. And really, where does this come from? And where is this leading us? It was three and a half years ago. I was on campuses talking about how white privilege is a racist myth designed to divide people and care more about skin color than character. In fact, we could play tape after tape and many of you have seen them on Facebook and Instagram, especially the one where I went to Colorado State University and I had the clip that was viewed well over 55 million times where I said that white privilege was racist and it went phenomenally viral. And so the overemphasis on the discussion of race in our country is intentional. As long as we're talking about something as inconsequential as the color of people's skin, we'll never actually be able to address the true plunder of the theft that is happening in our country, which is the wealthiest people in our country want to continue to add to their 11 figure net worth while we lose our manufacturing base, we bring in opioids from across the world and we lose our sense of culture. Purpose, which comes from a Greek word, telos, which means out in the distance, the place that we want to aim for. What is the purpose? What is the promise of America? What? Most politicians can't answer that. Instead, the sales pitch that was made to Republican voters in Georgia was something I agree with, but it wasn't compelling enough to be able to defeat Warnock and Ossoff, who had no business whatsoever winning, which is help elect Perdue and Loeffler because we are going to defeat socialism. Okay, that is not what the American conversation is about right now. It's not. There was a moment where socialism was the number one issue where people were really worried about a socialist takeover, and you should be. But I think people are also equally as worried about a fundamental destruction of the American way of life, the American promise, and just decent dialogue. So I love that word, dialogue. Dialogue comes from two Greek words, dia, which means through, and logos, which means truth, reason or thinking. Logos is a very interchangeable word. The point is that through reason we can find truth. That's what dialogue is supposed to be. That is why they hate dialogue. They actually don't want to have the process that you're able to explore truth and explore ultimate purpose. And so I talked about slavery the other day and Thomas Sowell makes this argument. And so I'm not alone on an island saying this is that most slavery around the world had nothing to do with race. Most slavery was just powerful people using their power to own other human beings. For example, slavery still exists in North America. There's a form of slavery that happens on our border. It happens in a lot of our cities with sex trafficking. Most times that that slavery occurs, it is not a white person that is owning a black person or Hispanic person. It's people of the same race that are engaging in that horrific, awful and evil practice. The same can be said for the horn of Africa in Somalia, where slavery is alive and well. To insert automatic racial undertones into the entire broader conversation of the history of slavery around the world is factually incorrect. And Abraham Lincoln said this, and I love this quote, which is, if slavery is not wrong, nothing is wrong. So Nikole, Hannah Jones and the people that are teaching your children, what's his name? Tahanisi Coates. They make the argument that America was founded on slavery, not on freedom. Now first of all, that ignores that the human norm going back to pre biblical times was slavery. There was almost no country that did not have slaves. The Israelites themselves were slaves in Egypt. Greece had slaves, Rome had slaves. So the idea of human beings owning human beings was widespread. The first question should be why did slavery end? What ethic, what idea actually broke the pattern of the sin of slavery? That's a really important question that most people in college and most people in the academy never dare ask. And I understand why people are afraid. They don't want to be called the R word. They do not want to lose their job or lose their friends. And that's what this program right here is unafraid to talk about. And here's another politically incorrect truth, that white slaves were sold all throughout Africa and white people and black people were slaves in America. It's true. Read Discrimination and Disparities in Thomas Sowell, and he has some phenomenal scholarship done on this topic. Thomas Sowell also argues that slavery was actually really bad also for Southern whites. Less economic production, less creativity, less entrepreneurship, less development. And relying upon an evil, sinful practice actually made the south much poorer than the industrial North. Who would have ever thought that not only is slavery evil, but it actually prevents all of societal human progress? That one of the reasons that we are able to break through the Industrial Revolution in the late 1800s was because we were able to win the argument and yes, the war against slavery. What's really going on here is that the intelligentsia, the people in charge, the people that write your children's textbooks, the people that host the television shows like Joy Reid, they never want to miss an opportunity to make themselves seem as if they're on the side of the angels, that they are better people than you are. That's a quote straight from Thomas Sowell. The ending of slavery was a remarkable breakthrough for human beings. Why did it happen? What largely happened in the west because of activist Christians taking the scriptures seriously, creating a moonshot document that all men are created equal, and then actually having to live up to that document. Of course there was contradiction in writing that document when some of the people that signed on to that document owned slaves themselves. Of course there was, but the ideal was put into writing as a central organizing principle. And the moment that that central organizing principle then became permanent, then all of a sudden all human action had to be compared to that. That is why George Washington said, no slaves at all, no slavery in the Northwest Territories, called the Northwest Ordinance. Very well. Slavery could have spread in the Northwest Territories. George Washington said no. Thomas Jefferson signed a moratorium of new slaves coming into the United States very early on into his presidency, 20 years after the ratification of the US Constitution. That was in the Constitution. Vermont abolished slavery in 1777. John Quincy Adams, the sixth president, was a fierce abolitionist son of founding father John Adams. The founding fathers never wrote extensively. And there's a sentence here, a sentence there they can find in private journals, but they never wrote publicly extensively defending the sin of slavery. That's a really important point. I remember being in an America where we used to be able to laugh and make fun of ourselves. I just got an email about someone who says they have to take mandated racial diversity seminar training or whatever it is. And all I have to say is that there is a piece of art, and I don't use that word lightly. That is so perfect, so funny, so politically incorrect. That hits this perfectly. It's from the legendary show the Office. Now the Office started as an unbelievably politically incorrect show and then it got into this kind of like Quasi Woke thing later on. But the episode Diversity Day, it's so politically incorrect, especially in today's time. I'm just gonna tell you something right now. If I dared repeat some of the lines here, it wouldn't even be an advertiser boycott. I'd be an advertiser invasion. One of my favorite lines is Steve Corral looks into the. Actually this might be the pilot episode. You see, I am. I'm not an expert in a lot of things, but I am an expert in the central canon of the first season of the Office. Cuz it all went downhill from there. I watched the later. The first season of the Office is so well written as if they don't care about. They just said we are going to swing for the fences, bottom of the ninth. We want this show to catch on that they just took huge risks. Steve Corral famously said, as Abraham Lincoln said, if you are a racist, I will attack you from the north. I highly encourage you to check it out because we need to laugh about this stuff a little bit. Because people are emailing me, Charlie, what do I do about this diversity seminar? If you think you have it bad, check out Michael Scott, who had to take the diversity class seminar from Mr. Brown. As Michael Scott would say in quotes, he's like, okay, I won't call you that. That's the first test. Now someone asked me, charlie, how do I push back against this stuff at work? How do I respond to this idea that America is systemically racist? And this is a question that Larry from Massachusetts also has. He emailed us freedomcharliekirk.com and also another question of this that Ann asked us. She just emailed us. She said, hey Charlie, they like to call white people racist, but what percentage of slaves are currently owned by whites in the world? Who are the real racists? Almost none. Slavery still exists in the world and it's mostly in the Islamic world and in the black world, almost in zero parts of the quote unquote white world is slavery allowed. And where slavery is existent, it's in the shadows. Where it happens in child sex trafficking. And the Open Border Coalition of Joe Biden basically is indifferent about the fact that 11,000 women are sex trafficked across the southern border every single year. We had Tom Homan, who is the former director of ice, Immigration Customs and Enforcement. And he said something on our podcast. I encourage all of you to please subscribe to our podcast Charlie Kirk Show Podcast Hit subscribe. He said something so stunning. He said, oh yeah, people rent children all the time on the southern border. And I said, what do you mean rent children? What is that, a VHS cassette tape? What are you talking about renting children? He said, oh yeah, on the southern border, children are rented for the purpose of crossing the southern border. That's slavery. And that happens right on our border. So before the BLM Incorporated Virtue Signaling White Guilt Coalition lectures you, why don't we secure our southern borders that children are no longer rented coming into our country? So there is one book and one service that I want to recommend to all of you that hits this perfectly. It's called Discrimination and Disparities by Thomas Sowell. And you guys can check it out by going to thinker.org, it's T H I N K R.org Charlie. They do an amazing job@thinker.org Charlie. You're able to summarize these books and these big ideas in bite sized form easier than ever before. So maybe there are some big ideas that you want to wrestle with, but especially in discrimination and disparities. Thomas Sowell makes the argument that disparities are actually the human norm, that we should not be surprised when there are differences of groups. In fact, if everything was the same, we would be in some form of quite honestly hellish egalitarianism. He makes the argument that employers were actually more likely to hire young black males when they were allowed to do background checks. That some types of discrimination are actually ideal. That's Thomas Sowell's argument. You want to check it out? Go to thinker.org, t-h I n k r.org Charlie, check it out. You're able to get these ideas summarized in bite sized form. I know the owner. Uh, it's terrific. And use the promo code. Charliethinker.org Charlie, they have some phenomenal books that I encourage you to check it out. You're able to read or listen without limits. Download the content on the go and key insights in just minutes. Andrew from Michigan. Charlie, I heard you talking about Joe Biden stumbling to get into the airplane. What are your thoughts? What are your deeper thoughts on this essentially, or his question? Thanks so much, Andrew. Congratulations, Andrew. You win a signed copy of the MAGA doctrine. Do you remember how the media treated Donald Trump when he had to walk down a ramp a little bit slower than usual? New York Times. Trump's halting walk down ramp raises new health questions. The president also appeared to have trouble raising a glass of water to his mouth during a speech at West Point a day before he turned 74. The oldest president has been in his first term. Of course, a narrative they were trying to put forward is that Donald Trump was unfit for office. Chris Saliza from cnn. Why the Donald Trump West Point ramp story actually matters and Joe Biden trying to get into an airplane just falls literally three times. And the activist media doing whatever they possibly can to try to say you're a bad person if you dare even mention it again. I had a little bit of fun with it only because that they were so terrible towards Donald Trump and terrible towards every single Republican that might have anything they've ever done wrong. And so yeah, I'm going to have a little bit of fun if Joe Biden collapses three times going into an airplane question here. Hi, Charlie, I'm a huge supporter and thank you for everything you are fighting for. What do you predict the future of the Chinese coronavirus vaccine will be? I'm 17 and do not plan on taking it. However, I do fear it will be mandatory for travel and large events. I'd love to hear your thoughts on whether you think the country is headed with this. Thank you, Cameron Gray. I am not going to take it either. So that's everyone's liberty and their own decision to do it. Just do your research, make your own decision, use your liberty, don't be forced into doing anything. And so if you think it's the right thing for you, then make that decision. But I've made a decision that is not that one. And I encourage you to, to do your research and if you Think I'm wrong, then email me freedomarliekirk.com but I'm not really big into forcing you to do something, especially something that was that rushed to market. So I encourage you guys to get into the weeds and read, read, read, read. Here's one. Brianna or Brianna. Single mom wanting to do more. First of all, I will keep this anonymous as you asked, so I won't say your last name. Hey Charlie. I'm a single mom and I work full time. God bless you. I live with my parents and they are helping me with my two young school age kids. Awesome. Because of this, I'm very limited in time and finances. You are very concerned with what our children are being taught. I wish I could homeschool, but I don't see how I could manage that right now. Aside from prayer, how can I make a difference in the direction our country is going? I want to be more courageous, but in the midst of custody discussions, I'm concerned about speaking out lest I lose my children. Well, first of all, God bless you for having your head in the right place. The best thing you could do is raise good children. That is the best thing you can do. Spend time with them, read with them, explore big ideas with them. But I just want to say something for Christian Incorporated out there, for the big churches that all they care about is bigger buildings and higher budgets. Why is there not an organization out there that makes it financially easier for women like you to homeschool their children? That'd be a pretty amazing ministry. Instead, we're worried about building hundred million dollar structures so you can have a rock show concert. And I'm all for that. I think it's powerful at times, but that's more of a challenge to the billions of dollars that get spent on, I'm not really sure what every single year in American Christianity, but Brianna or Brianna, the best thing you can do is to take the education and the nurturing and the upbringing of your children seriously. Education comes from a Latin word to lead forth. Lead forth your children correctly. It's a proverb that says teach the children in the ways you wish them to go. I'm paraphrasing, I'm butchering proverb. We'll get the exact verse and that is the way that they will go. Essentially lead them up in the ways that you desire and that is the way they will go. I think it's Proverbs 18. I'm totally butchering it, but I'm just drawing from recollection there. God bless you and thank you for that question. Let's get to some more questions here. Freedomarliekirk.com we have so many good ones here. Which let's get to this one here. Oklahoma okay, from Sarah. Congratulations. You get a signed copy the MAGA doctrine. Will you be recording your event in Edmond, Oklahoma on Tuesday, March 23rd? Either podcast and or YouTube you? Yes, we will be live streaming it and I encourage all of you if you want to come to our upcoming live events. Proverbs 22:6 Got it. Our live events go to tpusa.com genfree Oklahoma, Missouri, Kentucky, Nashville with Candace Owens. That's right. We will be in Nashville with Candace Owens. Then Vegas, San Jose. Check it out@tpusa.com Genfree here is one right here. Hey Charlie, can you break down LBJ's Great Society? What about it led to the economic oppression of the black community? Asking from a survivor of the Chicago suburb school system. Regards, Vince Congratulations Vince. You get a signed copy of the MAGA Doctrine. And please keep on emailing us your questions everybody. Freedomarliekirk.com okay Vince, the Great Society program was the largest welfare program in American history. The only thing that came close to in comparison was Franklin Delano Roosevelt's New Deal. The Great Society started welfare as we know it. It started many of the massive social welfare programs of today and that we know today, such as single motherhood assistance, food stamps. Almost all of it came out of Lyndon Baines Johnson. And so what happened was that the Civil Rights act was moving through Congress, John Fitzgerald Kennedy was shot, Lyndon Baines Johnson became President, and then they signed the Civil Rights act reluctantly into law because Lyndon Baines Johnson was a racist, bigot Southern Democrat. But in exchange he wanted some way to make sure that black people with their newfound freedom would vote Democrat for the rest of their life. So Lyndon Baines Johnson decided to do something Machiavellian. And if you ever heard that term Machiavellian, you're not sure what that means. It literally comes from an author by the name of Nicolio Machiavelli and he wrote the famous book the Prince, which basically, if you know the background of Nicolio Machiavelli, he was, he wrote it in Italy, I think in the 1500s during a time when there were a lot of warring factions in Italy. Basically the original crime families were ruling Italy. And he wrote it based on what he learned and it was written more in a fiction. Prose fiction. 1532 yes, haha. I was right. During a time in Italy where a lot of these warring factions were Basically employing tactics to be able to rule. And so that's where we get the phrase the ends justify the means. The question of would you rather be loved or hated as a ruler? All of these are discussed in an exploratory fashion in Machiavelli's book, the Prince. So anyway, if you hear that term Machiavellian, just need to make sure I say that, because some people hear that and just kind of goes over same with Orwellian and Marxist. These were people literally. Okay, so Lyndon Baines Johnson decided to do something very Machiavellian, where the ends justified the means, where he used brutal power to be able to do something bad for his own political purpose. And so here there's a great chart by the United States Census Bureau. The citation here is the United States decennial census from 1890 to 2000, the American community Survey. And you guys can check it out yourself. So black women were more likely to be married than white women up until 1970. And then single motherhood skyrocketed in the black community. So there was the black Harlem Renaissance. There was the black entrepreneurial trend that was happening in Chicago. And then Lyndon Baines Johnson came in and started to create government taxpayer subsidized housing units, specifically in Chicago, Atlanta and Detroit, came in and started to subsidize single motherhood and basically started to reward bad decisions. And the black community, which was the target of this social welfare scheme, but by the way, they weren't the only population that was negatively impacted by the Great Society. Most of the white Appalachia as well, found themselves on welfare because of this. So it was really racially agnostic, but it was, in some sense, the black community was impacted more. They started to see all of the negative trends start to accelerate. In fact, Thomas Sowell writes, and I quote, black poverty was plummeting far before the welfare state was implemented. But Lyndon Baines Johnson, being a bigot, a Southern racist bigot, saw worry in the fact that blacks actually were Republicans. So how do you make blacks Democrats? You keep down their economic success. You addict them to government programs, and you say the only way that you'll be able to keep on getting this small amount of government assistance is by voting Democrat. It was one of the most evil acts of public policy that was ever done. And Lyndon Baines Johnson did it intentionally as a way to simply and and solely preserve power in the Democrat Party. We know this. When you subsidize something, you're gonna get more of that something. So when you subsidize out of wedlock birth, you get more of that. When you decide to penalize and punish entrepreneurship, you get less of that. And that is precisely what the welfare state started to do in the 1960s. You can see an upward curve directly when that began, as Shelby Steel said. And Shelby Steele is a black economist and a black scholar who's been on the Charlie Kirk Show Podcast. Just another reason to subscribe to the Charlie Kirk show podcast. And by the way, I encourage those of you that are already subscribed, go back a month or two or three months. There is some phenomenal evergreen content. In fact, that reminds me what we should do on charliekirk.com, we should have a best of page of just some of the evergreen interviews that never get old, right? It's a great idea, Shelby. We've had some unbelievable guests. Seriously. Shelby Steele, Candace Owens, Larry Elder, Peter Boghossian, James Lindsay, you guys can find these amazing conversations. And my only reason for mentioning that is sometimes they get buried in our feed because we post so much. We do two episodes a day, one on Saturday, one on Sunday. And the Candace one is literally as relevant today as it was back when we did that interview back in July. And so Shelby Steele said the greatest issue that blacks have today is an issue of how to deal with freedom, not an issue of how to deal with slavery. That's Shelby Steele's words. So you got a problem with that, you can contact him. And it's exactly true. Plus, the National Education association, the American Federation of Teachers and the public sector teacher unions have gone on a diabolical self dealing scheme to have crumbling public schools with declining literacy rates that we've seen in Baltimore and other places all across the country. It's been an absolute travesty to America. You combine all of that together, that is one of the reasons why black America is not doing as well as other communities. However, did you know that the richest immigrant group to America is Nigerian Americans? If Nigerian Americans are able to succeed in America, is America really so racist? Asian Americans are actually wealthier than than white Americans in America. Indian American immigrants are wealthier than white Americans. If this was a white supremacist country, there's no data at all to support it. Instead, it's a lie. It's a lie fabricated to try to have white people atone for something they didn't do so that they give away stuff that they have to give Democrats power. Look, we all know that conservatives are getting kicked off of social media. So why are we choosing to give all these tech companies all of Our data. Now is the time to take a stand.

ExpressVPN.com Charlie Charlie, I'm a Crown High School student in Las Vegas. I've been a friend of your show for almost a year now. My question is, what are your thoughts to the motive of the Atlanta shooting since the left claims that it was a white supremacist committing a hate crime when there's no evidence related to that? All the information I found on Ben Shapiro's podcast states the evidence pointing it to be a related extradition he had. That is correct. And Ben's a good friend and so I'm glad you listened to both of us. So first of all, let's just you mention you're from Vegas and you mentioned motive. Do you know what motive that we never found out that was quietly swept under the rug. What was the motive of the Las Vegas shooter at Mandalay Bay? Why did we never find that out? How do you not have a motive declared? It's beyond me. Not to mention the question surrounding how did he get into that room with no security, it seems totally impossible that we have no answers around that. Okay. Anyway, that's just the activist media just was told to stop caring from the most powerful interest. They're basically like, just stop it. Which just begs the question, is there more to that? How do we just forget about that? That's a really important thing. How did a guy kill 61 people? We don't know why anyway, and he injured 867 people, 411 by gunfire. Not an insignificant event in Vegas. That was not your question. But since you said you were from Vegas and you asked about the motive of a shooter, I just have to ask that question. Okay? There is zero evidence whatsoever to support that this guy in Atlanta was racially motivated. But let me ask you a question. Why does that matter? Why does his motive in that case actually matter? Because obviously the Las Vegas motive was completely irrelevant to the media. It's so irrelevant that we just stopped talking about it. The reason is this, is that if they can potentially connect any act of violence to their broader narrative, that will give them ultimate control that America's racist. And because of that, we need to get rid of private property, we need to get rid of churches, we need to get rid of school choice, we need to get rid of families. If they can't confirm an event to that narrative, then they just lose interest. It's that simple. But if they can confirm an event to that narrative, then they will be relentless. And there's one thing that I want to keep on repeating. You are being manipulated. You must have this self awareness. I implore you, every piece of information you read, every podcast you listen to that might not be ours. Ben does a great job. All the Daily Wire does a great job. Bongino does a great job. Levin does a great job. But almost every mainstream outlet is manipulating you. So they are trying to convince you through psychological manipulation to care so much about the motive of the scumbag that kills eight people. Because then it will justify further aggressive action towards their desired objective. You see, remember they have been testing this out over the last decade. Do you notice how they have not made this an issue about gun control? This was a perfect issue. Typically if you have a guy that purchase a gun on the same day, we'd have Michael Bloomberg already on cnn. Where's the CNN town hall on gun control? Usually CNN would have some sort of town hall by now where they have all the victims families. Instead it's all about race. Because CNN and MSNBC and the New York Times, they actually have realized that the gun control argument is not actually a big mover that most of the country actually wants their weapons. They understand the price of liberty and they know that there are negative externalities that we're gonna try to limit. But it's not worth mass gun confiscation. Instead they try to cherry pick certain events. Even though the mass narrative around anti Asian hate is actually more about black people and Asian people than anything to do with white supremacy. And so the reason that they are focusing on it, despite it being no evidence around it, is that it confirms what they see as a successful narrative to permanently occupy and control our country. You are being manipulated. Free yourself of that narrative. That's what this program is all about. That's what we do every single day. When you free yourself of the manipulation, you're actually a much happier person. You really are. Seek wisdom, not anger. Seek facts, not narrative. That's something the media fears the most.
