The Right Wing's Attempt to Create a New MLK
Charlie Kirk's "National Day of Remembrance" has been marked by white supremacists trying to replace a tradition of justice with their own manufactured myth.
Alain Stephens, an investigative reporter, notes that they are carving out calendar space for Charlie Kirk, demanding reverence and hush, typically reserved for real moral witnesses.
- Congress moved to mark the day as a “National Day of Remembrance”
- The White House ordered flags at half-staff after his death
- Towns are issuing local proclamations
“Every single American should take a long, hard look at the twisted soul and dark spirit of anyone who would want to kill a young man as good as Charlie Kirk,”
President Donald Trump said at Kirk’s funeral last month, setting the tone for a narrative of grief, free speech under attack, and a martyr who stood bravely before the mob.
