A Call To REVOLUTION..."
This message from BA, which originally aired on January 1, 2014 and was printed in Revolution #326, continues to be acutely relevant and warrants collective discussion and wrangling.

On viewing the film Revolution & Religion
"The film brings you up close inside Cornel West's and Bob Avakian's dialogue: the passion, the audacity, the science, the morality, the revolutionary substance. Two courageous voices modeling a morality that refuses to accept injustice – pouring heart and soul into standing together challenging all of us to fight for a world worthy of humanity."
—Andy Zee, co-director of the film
"It was like there was magic in the air. It was one of the most hopeful things that I've seen in a very long time. I think it was historic in many different dimensions: in terms of the topic that was approached; the people who were involved in it, the two speakers; the moment in time. I felt like I was able to see a great demonstration of morality and conscience applied to dealing with the problems of humanity—that both speakers stood out this way."
—Ardea Skybreak

WWW.REVCOM.US/REVOLUTION NEWSPAPER brings alive a scientific analysis of major events in society and the world—why they are happening, how different events and developments relate to each other, how all this relates to the system we live under, where people's interests lie in relation to all this, how revolution is in fact the solution to all this and what the goals of that revolution are, how different viewpoints and programs relate, positively or negatively, to the revolution that is needed, and how people can move, and are moving, to build toward that revolution. Revcom.us/Revolution is the guide, the pivot, the crucial tool in drawing forward, orienting, training, and organizing thousands, and influencing millions—fighting the power, and transforming the people, for revolution—hastening and preparing for the time when we can go for the whole thing, with a real chance to win.

6/3/15: Over six months since a Cleveland policeman murdered 12-year-old Tamir Rice, the county sheriff turned over a secret report to the prosecutor on the killing, and there are reports in the system's media from “unnamed sources” that the report says there is a “lack of evidence to support that a crime was committed in the shooting of Tamir Rice." Bullshit! The whole world saw this murder on video! Indict! Convict! Send the killer cops to jail! The whole damn system is guilty as hell!
