Cheers to Joaquin Phoenix for Powerful Oscars Speech
| revcom.us
Joaquin Phoenix made a powerful acceptance speech at Sunday’s Academy Awards after winning the Oscar for lead actor for his performance in the movie Joker. Phoenix spoke deeply from the heart, including about giving “voice to the voiceless,” addressing the “distressing issues that we are facing collectively,” and rejecting the domination of one group by another and the plunder of the natural world—and doing so in a spirit of love, compassion, and helping people grow, not canceling them out. It was a moving antidote to the prevailing me first/America First/cancel culture.

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.
