COMING SOON: A WEEK TO PUT REVOLUTION... ON THE MAP

We are calling on all revcoms—and everyone who wants a whole new world—to begin preparing now for a major effort to PUT REVOLUTION ON THE MAP, beginning on Saturday, October 28 and going through Sunday, November 5. This week will not only further spread the word of this revolution but mark a real step forward in manifesting the organized presence of the revolution. As Bob Avakian said in the film Why We Need An Actual Revolution And How We Can Really Make Revolution:

The organized forces and the leadership of this revolution must become the “authority” that growing numbers of people look to and follow—not the lying politicians and media of this oppressive system—not those who front for the oppressors and preach about “reconciliation” with this system—not those who turn people against each other when they need to be uniting for this revolution. (Emphasis added)

And, very relevant in today’s circumstances: not people promoting capitalist programs and bourgeois aspirations of various kinds, including very poisonous ones.

Some time later this week, revcom.us will post a flyer calling on masses of people to become actively involved in manifesting support for and spreading the word about this revolution, helping to organize activity for this WEEK to put revolution on the map, and becoming part of the organized forces for this revolution.

WE ARE THE REVCOMS

 

This activity could include things like: 

  • people helping, in various ways, to distribute the central flyer (as well as WE NEED AND WE DEMAND, A WHOLE BETTER WAY TO LIVE, A FUNDAMENTALLY DIFFERENT SYSTEM and WE ARE THE REVCOMS, and other materials that would be used during this week); 

  • raising funds, including by organizing/holding fundraising activities/events; 

  • helping to poster materials in the neighborhoods broadly, and in the particular housing projects, yards, where they live; at (and in) schools (both in oppressed and better-off areas), and other important sites... and other activities. 

We Need and We Demand : A Whole New Way to Live, A Fundamentally Different System

 

The promotion of the leadership of BA and the new communism will be a very important aspect of this WEEK, and the Interviews will have a pivotal role in all this. This would include mass airings of the Interviews with BA, or clips from them, in neighborhoods, on or near school campuses, etc., and programs with the Interviews (or selections from them). As one part of this, The Bob Avakian Institute has called for “a national day to take BA to the campuses.” There are important positive synergies to build on with the “Woke” Lunacy vs. Real Revolution Tour and the The Communist Revolution So Badly Needed… vs. the Anti-Communist Brainwash You’re Getting Tour.

The “central flyer” will also explicitly call on people broadly, in all parts of society—and this would have particular relevance in basic neighborhoods, but with significant resonance in society well beyond that—to observe, as an important manifestation of this WEEK, the principles of the revolution, as concentrated in the Points of Attention for the Revolution

All this will be done (and we will “broadcast” that this is being done) all over the country, explicitly as part of further building a movement and organized force, for the revolution that is urgently needed—and now more possible—with a countrywide perspective and impacting all of society.

Finally, it should go without saying that all this will necessarily involve fierce, determined struggle, and absolutely no tailing, with basic masses and others (in other parts of society), at the same time as we are strongly and compellingly putting forward the positive, emancipating goal and the uplifting orientation of revolutionary emancipators of humanity.

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!
