Charlie Kirk Book Recommendations (All-Time)
Book 1 - Gulag Archipelago by Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
Charlie Kirk: "Gulag Archipelago is a non-fictional account of Solzhenitsyn’s experience in the brutal and murderous Soviet forced labor camps of the 1940s. For anyone interested in politics, it’s important to be educated on the very predictable outcome when government corruption and totalitarian power take over."
Book 2 - The Book That Made Your World by Vishal Mangalwadi
Charlie Kirk: "Mangalwadi’s writings in The Book That Made Your World is an assessment of how the Holy Bible influenced Western culture. It discusses twenty key areas, including the ideas of liberty, education, science, morality, and language, and it is a clear indication of how the Bible ultimately inspired the Founding Fathers to write our Constitution."
Book 3 - Liberal Fascism by Jonah Goldberg
Charlie Kirk: "Liberal Fascism highlights the common misunderstandings of fascism and argues that fascism is not a phenomenon of the right, but instead, the left. Liberalism in America stems from progressivism–which ultimately shares more commonality with Mussolini and Hitler than conservatism does."
Book 4 - Discrimination and Disparities by Thomas Sowell
Charlie Kirk: "This series of essays by the great economist Thomas Sowell brilliantly addresses questions regarding social disparity and success. In more recent generations, economic disparities and discrimination have been hot button topics for many in politics."
Book 5 - Capitalism and Freedom by Milton Friedman
Charlie Kirk: "This is a classic book on economics which argues that competitive capitalism serves as a necessary prerequisite to achieve both economic and political freedom. The author, Milton Friedman, is arguably one of the most important economists in the Western canon who played an integral role in providing the foundation for millions of entrepreneurial Americans to understand the values of freedom and free markets that underpin American society."
