New faces: Iran political prisoners.

 

Wednesday morning beginning at 8:00 am, the mass murdering president of Iran’s Islamic Republic, Ebrahim Raisi, will be met by protests as he addresses the UN. At 6:00 pm, Revolution Books will host a special program of internationalist solidarity with Iran’s political prisoners—held in its dungeons, not for any crime, but for heroically opposing its brutal regime. We will raise our voices and demand their freedom now. 

We will stand with the brave struggles of Iranian women against suffocating theocracy... of poets, artists, and filmmakers to think and express themselves freely... of environmentalists for Iran’s ecosystems... of teachers and workers against destitution and tyranny... of ethnic and religious minorities against persecution... and of revolutionaries for emancipation.

These are our brothers and sisters.  They are our people! Their heroism reverberates across borders, inspiring courage, determination, and the potential for a new world. 

Carl Dix (revolutionary, advocate of Bob Avakian’s new communism), Larry Everest (revcom.us contributor, International Emergency Campaign—IEC—spokesperson), Anahita Rahmani, and others will explore:

  • Why people in the U.S. have a special responsibility to confront the crimes this country has committed around the world, and oppose its oppression, plunder and aggression;
  • Why we must proceed from the shared interests of humanity—not of the world’s governments;
  • Why both the imperialist USA, which poses the greatest threat to humanity, and Iran’s theocracy are forces of reaction which reinforce each other, and why we must not turn to either, but fight to bring forward another way;
  • The connection between these struggles and the fight for revolution and the emancipation, why this is a rare moment when revolution becomes more possible in the U.S., and why revolution in the U.S. would jolt billions of people everywhere, shattering the sense that no alternative to this terrible world is possible.

Revolution Books is a beacon for a whole new world—inspired and guided by the work and leadership of Bob Avakian, the most important political thinker and leader on the planet today.

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!

  • Fund revcoms to travel to national “hotspots,” where extreme contradictions are pulling apart the fabric of this country and creating the possibility of wrenching an actual revolution out of this intensifying situation
  • Expand the reach and coverage of revcom.us
  • Printing and distribution of key Revcom materials including the Declaration “WE NEED AND WE DEMAND: A WHOLE NEW WAY TO LIVE, A FUNDAMENTALLY DIFFERENT SYSTEM” and the Proclamation, “WE ARE THE REVCOMS (Revolutionary Communists)”
