A Voice Stilled, a Movement Stirred - In Honor of Charlie Kirk
Just one week ago, Charlie Kirk was assassinated while doing what he loved most — debating and exchanging ideas on a college campus. In this special episode of Gen Z Unplugged, we reflect on his life, legacy, and the way his death has shaken an entire generation. From grief and disbelief to courage and renewed conviction, we discuss how Gen Z is processing this defining moment and how Charlie’s voice continues to inspire thousands to rise, speak, and lead.
Join us as we share personal stories, reactions from across the nation, and a vision of hope for a generation that refuses to stay silent.
