Step Into The Revolution!

The system that rules over us—capitalism-imperialism—is in serious crisis. Society is being ripped apart. A radical resolution is coming. Will it be reactionary and enslaving? Or revolutionary and emancipating? The answer depends on all of us!

Host Andy Zee will talk with Noche Diaz, Annie Day and Pete from The RNL Show about how we make May 1st 2021 a powerful day that advances the forces of revolution. At the heart of May 1st will be the recently issued "Declaration, A Call To Get Organized Now for a Real Revolution" from the Revcoms (available at revcom.us). 

Rage and pain seethe across the country over the testimony and unending video of George Floyd's murder during the trial of the pig who killed him. Protests erupt against the cold-blooded murder of Daunte Wright, just a few miles from where Floyd was killed. When will these police murders end? Lenny Wolff and Carl Dix will get into it.

We will feature:

* An illustration of the article “Violence? It's the Police!” read by Bob Avakian

* A discussion between the mighty Revcoms on the new Declaration and Call by the Revcoms and why you need to join the revolution at the upcoming May Day (May 1st) celebrations

* “3 Strikes” by Bob Avakian

* Round up of testimony and expert witnesses in the trial of Derek Chauvin

* Followers of Bob Avakian Lenny Wolff and Carl Dix will get into the Derek Chauvin trial

* Co-host Sunsara Taylor interviews Gabriel Black Elk, brother of Paul Castaway, who was murdered by police, and member of Native Lives Matter on the ground in Minneapolis

* “Nothing Less” by Bob Avakian

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!
