Victor Davis Hanson on the Legacy of Charlie Kirk

In this powerful reflection, Victor Davis Hanson speaks candidly about the assassination of Charlie Kirk — a man he calls irreplaceable. Hanson remembers Kirk not simply as a conservative activist, but as a fearless communicator, organizer, and cultural force who gave young Americans the courage to embrace family, faith, and tradition in an age that often mocked all three.

Hanson’s warning is blunt and sobering: America is lowering the bar of civilization. Without voices like Kirk’s — voices unafraid to speak plainly about fertility, family, and faith — the cultural void will only deepen, leaving a generation adrift.

This is more than a tribute. It’s a call to recognize what is being lost, and a reminder of the values that must be defended if America is to remain strong. Watch until the end for Hanson’s moving reflection — and subscribe for more critical commentary on the state of America and its cultural crossroads.
