Flashmob of “Battlecry to Break the Chains” dance at International Women’s Day 2023.   

International Women’s Day 2024: Say NO! to the patriarchal degradation, dehumanization, and subjugation of all women everywhere, and all oppression based on gender or sexual orientation!

NO! to the Christian fascist onslaught on women's right to abortion and on the very existence of LGBTQ people across the U.S.!

NO! to Islamic fundamentalists in Iran and beyond forcing women to veil themselves under threat of jail and even death!

NO! to femicidethe murder of women just for being womenacross Africa, Latin America and everywhere on this planet!

NO! to women being told day in and day out to “hold the family together”—even as all too many suffer abuse within the family!

NO! to rape and the violent degradation of sexual slavery, prostitution and pornography!

NO! to the vicious exploitation of billions of women worldwide in sweatshops and farmlands and service jobs!

All this oppression is woven into the system of capitalism-imperialism. The simple truth is this: Capitalism and Patriarchyyou can't end one without ending the other.

The liberating truth is this: We can forge a whole new world, of emancipated, freely cooperating and flourishing human beings of all genders. That’s a scientific fact! But this can only happen with a real revolution.
We need and we demand: REVOLUTION, for a whole new way to live and a fundamentally different system.

International Women’s Day 2024: Revolution is more possiblenot in some far-off time, but in this time!

The rulers of this system are at each other's throats. Trump and other fascists are shredding norms to impose a white supremacist, woman-hating, America-first nightmare far worse than any of us have lived through. Biden and the Democrats pose as champions of women and the people, while compromising away our rights and backing genocide in Gaza. The fight between them is likely to get all out of control in 2024. This is NOT the time to choose the “lesser of two evils,” or to desperately fight to preserve what has been. NO!

Now is the time to take advantage of the deep divisions among these rulers to go after their whole system, with the aim of bringing it down and putting something much better in its place.

Bob Avakian, the revolutionary leader who has brought forward a new framework for human emancipation, has said: “Radical change is coming: Will it be emancipating, or enslaving—revolutionary, or reactionary?”

THAT is up to us… and to YOU.

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!

So what should you give to make 2024 our year—a year of revolution?
Everything you possibly can!
