On Saturday, January 4, thousands of people in some 80 cities and towns across the U.S. rallied and marched in #NoWarOnIran protests. These protests took place a day after the U.S. assassinated a high-ranking Iranian official in Iraq, and as the Trump/Pence regime continues to make aggressive moves and threats against Iran.

In Washington, DC, several hundred people—including actor/activist Jane Fonda—gathered across from the White House and then marched to Trump Hotel. Hundreds rallied at Times Square in New York City and marched through Manhattan streets. A large crowd protested near Trump Tower in Chicago, with some of the protesters marching through the downtown streets and briefly taking over the busy Lake Shore Drive. A local TV news channel reported that “Thousands came to San Francisco Saturday to protest.... They made their way through city streets, holding signs and stopping traffic as they chanted ‘We say no to war.’” Along with the protests in major cities, there were demonstrations in smaller cities and towns like Albuquerque, New Mexico; Ithaca, New York; Fort Wayne, Indiana; and elsewhere.

As the revcom.us statement on the U.S. assassination of the Iranian official says: It is critically important that people in this country oppose this American act of war with mass political action.

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.
