There is a vicious war on women going on in this country, focused on attacks on the crucial right to abortion. Extreme anti-abortion laws are being passed, with different states passing draconian bans meant to challenge Roe v. Wade and the right to abortion nationally. Women are being demonized and called “murderers” for deciding when and whether to have children. The laws being enacted are not just “going back” but are much more severe—including criminal sentences for women who have abortions and people who provide them. At the same time, this war is not being treated as such—people have been relying on politicians and judges for 50 years, while the attacks on abortion have mounted.

The National Revolution Tour issued a call for “everyone who refuses to accept this violent, Dark Ages assault on women to stand up now and fight to stop these bans. Take to the streets on Tuesday, June 4 across this country. Wear bloody pants and heavy chains to dramatize the future being imposed on women.”

The call for these actions on June 4 was part of building toward the upcoming June 8-9 weekend in Los Angeles. As the call said: “We need an actual revolution to fully and finally emancipate women, one half of humanity. We, the National Revolution Tour, are organizing now to get in position to make this revolution and are taking up this fight as an essential part of that. Join us on Tuesday in the streets and the public square to defend this right.”

The call from the National Revolution Tour was taken up by Revolution Clubs, Refuse Fascism activists, and others in cites from Los Angeles to Chicago to New York City and elsewhere. On this page are some sights and sounds from the day and night of actions on June 4.

Together, WE passed $40,000 in revcom's Winter fundraising campaign to “Transform Revcom.us’ Web Technology and Presence”!

Reaching this goal is a real achievement and a victory for the people of the world, and it wouldn’t have been possible without the dedicated efforts of many people working creatively and collectively to meet this pressing need: those who donated whether large or small contributions, who fundraised, who spread the campaign, who sent statements, who raised comments, questions, criticisms or suggestions – and of course those who worked so hard on modernizing and upgrading our web technology and presence. It all made a difference!

The Ongoing Need for Sustainers

During this four month fund drive, Revcom.us continued to incur thousands of dollars of costs each month for our office, maintaining our existing site and other expenses. But thanks to our existing monthly sustainers we were able to meet these expenses and use all the funds raised in the drive to transform the website.

So we encourage all our donors and those who’ve not yet donated to become monthly sustainers at whatever level you can afford.

Remember, humanity’s fate truly hinges on millions taking up the revolutionary science, strategy, and new communism brought forward by Bob Avakian which they can find at revcom.us.

You’ve read this article and now you need to be part of making sure revcom.us is able to make an urgently needed leap and transformation.
