Charlie Kirk‘s American Comeback Tour has resumed following the conservative activist’s fatal shooting on September 10, with several guest speakers scheduled to appear at the upcoming events.
The tour is run by Turning Point USA, a nonprofit organization co-founded by Charlie, which advocates for conservative politics on high school, college, and university campuses. Charlie’s widow, Erika Kirk, has since taken over as the CEO of Turning Point.
