Showing 5 Harper College videos from Charlie Kirk's video collection.
A student at a campus event confronted Charlie Kirk over his community college background at Harper College, questioning his standing to critique higher education or discuss economics; Kirk acknowledged never finishing a degree but challenged the student to name basic economists like Milton Friedman and Friedrich Hayek, arguing his practical accomplishments, including building a national youth organization and top-ranked podcast, spoke for themselves. A separate video captures a heated campus confrontation in which protesters called Kirk racist without citing specific statements, with Kirk arguing that ongoing public debate, not silence, prevents political violence.
