Fact check: What did Charlie Kirk say about blacks getting the right to vote

Checked on September 15, 2025

1. Summary of the results

The analyses provided do not contain any direct quotes or statements from Charlie Kirk regarding blacks getting the right to vote [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8]. However, some sources suggest that Charlie Kirk may have held views that were dismissive of the struggles faced by black people in the US, such as denying the existence of systemic racism and calling white privilege a 'racist idea' [1], and referring to George Floyd as a 'scumbag' [3]. Additionally, one source mentions that Charlie Kirk questioned the intellectual capabilities of women and black people, and said that the 1964 Civil Rights Act was a mistake [5]. It is essential to note that none of the sources provide a direct statement from Charlie Kirk regarding blacks getting the right to vote.

2. Missing context/alternative viewpoints

The analyses provided lack context about Charlie Kirk's overall views on the Civil Rights Movement and the historical context surrounding the right to vote for black people [4] [7]. Some sources focus on Charlie Kirk's killing and its potential impact on political violence, without discussing his views on racial issues [6] [8]. Alternative viewpoints, such as the potential benefits of the Civil Rights Act and the ongoing struggles faced by black people in the US, are not discussed in the analyses [2] [1]. Furthermore, the sources do not provide information about Charlie Kirk's interactions with black leaders or his statements on other racial issues, which could provide a more comprehensive understanding of his views [1] [5].

3. Potential misinformation/bias in the original statement

The original statement may be misleading or incomplete, as it implies that Charlie Kirk made a statement about blacks getting the right to vote, when in fact, none of the sources provide such information [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8]. The framing of the original statement may benefit those who seek to criticize Charlie Kirk's views on racial issues, by implying that he made a statement that is not supported by the available evidence [1] [5]. On the other hand, the lack of direct quotes or statements from Charlie Kirk may also benefit those who seek to defend his views, by allowing them to argue that his opinions on the topic are not well-represented in the available sources [7] [8].
