STOP The Patriarchal Degradation, Dehumanization, and Subjugation of All Women Everywhere, and All Oppression Based on Gender or Sexual Orientation!

 

You cannot break all the chains, except one. You cannot say you want to be free of exploitation and oppression, except you want to keep the oppression of women by men. You can’t say you want to liberate humanity yet keep one half of the people enslaved to the other half. The oppression of women is completely bound up with the division of society into masters and slaves, exploiters and exploited, and the ending of all such conditions is impossible without the complete liberation of women. All this is why women have a tremendous role to play not only in making revolution but in making sure there is all-the-way revolution. The fury of women can and must be fully unleashed as a mighty force for proletarian revolution.

ON THE MODE OF PRODUCTION

Recently I wrote:
Mode of Production!... Mode of Production!... Mode of Production!
If you don’t know what this means, and how important it is—you are out of it, and you need to learn about it!
Can This System Do Away With, or Do Without, The Oppression of Women?—A Fundamental Question, a Scientific Approach to the Answer
by Bob Avakian
Through which mode of production will any social problem be addressed? 
That is the most fundamental question that must be asked, in regard to changes in society. And the answer to that question will be decisive in determining what must be done to bring about the changes that are understood to be necessary and desirable. Why? Because the mode of production—the basic economic relations and the basic dynamics of the economic system—is the decisive factor in determining what the character of a society, and its dominant social relations, politics, and ideology, will be.

The whole question of the position and role of women in society is more and more acutely posing itself in today’s extreme circumstances—this is a powderkeg in the U.S. today. It is not conceivable that all this will find any resolution other than in the most radical terms and through extremely violent means. The question yet to be determined is: will it be a radical reactionary or a radical revolutionary resolution, will it mean the reinforcing of the chains of enslavement or the shattering of the most decisive links in those chains and the opening up of the possibility of realizing the complete elimination of all forms of such enslavement.

YOUR FINANCIAL SUPPORT MAKES A WORLD OF DIFFERENCE!

Will you give generously to something that can make all the difference—a fund drive to put real revolution on the map on a scale not seen in decades, if ever, in the history of this country?

The existential climate crisis… the threat of nuclear war… police murder… rape and brutality against women… the horrific refugee crisis… this system has no good answers for these crises. In an interview on The RNL—Revolution, Nothing Less!—Show, Bob Avakian (BA) says “We can no longer afford to allow these imperialists to dominate the world and to determine the destiny of humanity. They need to be overthrown as quickly as possible.”

As part of this fund drive, your donation will go to meet the ongoing needs to produce this website, revcom.us. This website provides a unique analysis of major events and trends. It is where you go to find out why a real revolution is urgently needed; why that revolution is possible–especially in this time; the goals of this revolution; and how to be part of building for it. This is where you go to find the major works of Bob Avakian.

Your donation will also give an immediate boost to promote the “game changing” Bob Avakian Interviews on The RNL—Revolution, Nothing Less!—Show very broadly in society. And also expand production and promotion of The RNL—Revolution, Nothing Less!—Show—the national YouTube voice of the Revcoms.
