What: Protest/Speakout/Photo Op 
When: Monday, May 13, 12 Noon 
Where: City Hall/Brooklyn Bridge area at Centre Street/Park Row

After sending the NYPD onto the campuses at Columbia University and the City College of New York in full stormtrooper mode, Eric Adams said, as a proud American, he was “disgusted” by the way protesters disrespected the U.S. flag. And he declared: “We’re not going to surrender our way of life to anyone.”

The students who stood up on their campuses and said no to the mass murder, destruction of hospitals and schools and enforced starvation in Gaza are right. Standing up against the U.S.-Israeli genocide is not Anti-Semitic. And it is inspiring to see them continuing to protest in the face of arrests, suspensions, and lies about being manipulated by “outside agitators.”

Mayor Adams, YOU are disgusting, and you should get ready to be disgusted again.

This American way of life you are so proud of was founded on slavery and genocide and is today a global empire based on wars and plunder. The war your uncle died fighting was a genocidal war fought to drown the liberation struggle of the Vietnamese people in blood. And today America is financing, arming and giving diplomatic cover for the genocidal war Israel is carrying out in Gaza. This is disgusting.

At noon on Monday, May 13 at the City Hall/Brooklyn Bridge area at Centre Street/Park Row, Carl Dix and the RevCom Corps for the Emancipation of Humanity will lay bare the truly depraved way of life Eric "Black Giuliani” Adams finds so precious and why it's long past time for this way of life to be gotten rid of thru revolution and how the chance of a lifetime to overthrow this rotten system needs to be grabbed hold of by all of us who refuse to accept this terrible future it has in store for humanity.

We will address why Adams and the others responsible for the brutal crackdown on the students protesting the U.S.-Israeli genocide in Gaza are wrong and how this crackdown exposes the vulnerability of this system. It is disgusting you all have revived the ghosts of 1960s segregationist sheriffs like Alabama’s Bull Connor to try to justify your criminal actions.

And we will demonstrate for Eric Adams the proper way to treat the American flag.

From the genocide in Gaza, to the growing threat of world war between nuclear powers, to escalating environmental devastation… the capitalist-imperialist system ruling over us is a horror for billions around the world and is tearing up the fabric of life on earth. Now the all-out battle within the U.S. ruling class, between fascist Republicans and war criminal Democrats, is coming to a head—likely during, or before, the coming elections—ripping society apart unlike anything since the Civil War. 

Bob Avakian (BA), revolutionary leader and author of the new communism, has developed a strategy to prepare for and make revolution. He’s scientifically analyzed that this is a rare time when an actual revolution has become more possible, and has laid out the sweeping vision, solid foundation and concrete blueprint for “what comes next,” in the Constitution for the New Socialist Republic in North America. 

The website revcom.us follows and applies that leadership and is essential to all this. We post new materials from BA and curate his whole body of work. We apply the science he’s developed to analyze and expose every key event in society, every week. Revcom.us posts BA’s timely leadership for the revcoms (revolutionary communists), including his social media posts which break this down for people every week and sometimes more. We act as a guiding and connecting hub for the growing revcom movement nationwide: not just showing what’s being done, but going into what’s right and what’s wrong and rapidly learning—and recruiting new people into what has to be a rapidly growing force.

Put it this way: there will be no revolution unless this website not only “keeps going” but goes up to a whole different level!

So what should you give to make 2024 our year—a year of revolution?
