A memorial service for Charlie Kirk, the right-wing commentator and Turning Point USA founder who was assassinated on Wednesday, will be held in Glendale, Arizona, on Sept. 21. His organization has said the service will take place at State Farm Stadium, home of the Arizona Cardinals NFL team. ”Join us in celebrating the remarkable life and enduring legacy of Charlie Kirk, an American legend," Turning Point USA wrote on X. Doors will open at 8 a.m and the program will start at 11. Kirk was shot dead on Wednesday during an event at a Utah college, the first stop on his planned “American Comeback Tour.” His suspected killer, 22-year-old Tyler Robinson, was arrested on Thursday. “If you thought my husband’s mission was powerful before, you have no idea what you have just unleashed across the country and this world,” Charlie’s widow, Erika Kirk, said in a statement on Friday. Kirk’s death has sparked impromptu memorials across the U.S. and the world. Outpourings of grief, condemnation of the violence, and calls for calm have come from across the political spectrum. Erika has said she intends to continue her husband’s work: “The movement is not going anywhere.”
