A professor emerita from the University of Dayton School of Law recently penned an article titled “Charlie Kirk, White Supremacist, Dead at 31.”
Posted on her Race, Racism and the Law website, Vernellia Randall claims that “behind the branding of ‘patriotism and ‘freedom,’” the record of the Turning Point USA co-founder “shows a pattern of rhetoric, organizational culture, and alliances that echoed white supremacist and Christian nationalist ideologies.”
Randall makes use of the discredited Southern Poverty Law Center and the far-left Guardian newspaper to allege Kirk “openly embraced Christian nationalist language,” said “liberty was only possible with a Christian population,” and that his rhetoric “increasingly mirrored white supremacist and authoritarian themes.”
Randall also believes Kirk’s denial of “the existence of systemic racism,” belief that white privilege is a “racist idea,” and that critical race theory is a “dangerous indoctrination” further impugn his character.
