Right wing activist Charlie Kirk, who was shot and killed during an event at a Utah university Wednesday, got his start in politics from a young age in Chicago's suburbs.

Kirk had previously held events at UCF, with the most recent one in 2023, and had also spoken at other Florida universities this year.
