Description

On this episode of the Rick Smith Show, Rick explores the fallout from the death of Charlie Kirk and how the reaction is shaping discourse across America’s college campuses. Raw Story reporter Sarah Burris joins to discuss the media narratives and the political exploitation surrounding the tragedy. Bucknell University Professor Matias Vernengo provides perspective on how campuses, already battlegrounds for freedom of speech and rising extremism, are responding to the polarization and grief. Together, they unpack what this moment reveals about the intersection of politics, higher education, and the ongoing struggle for open dialogue in a divided nation.
