Summary
On a deeply thought-provoking episode of The Charlie Kirk Show, Charlie goes through a study published in Axios which outlines in great detail a troubling trend facing the future of America. He unpacks what it truly means to be a conservative and why our institutions are failing the next generation (perhaps intentionally so) by enabling a long slide into liberalism & destruction. He's joined by none other than one of America's foremost experts on the Culture War, Heather Mac Donald from the Manhattan Institute—Author of 'The Diversity Delusion,' as well as many other phenomenal works—to try and make sense of how we got here and preview where this long, dark road may lead us if our civilization fails to quickly change course.
