We're excited to announce that this week, we are beginning the high-impact postering campaign to get @BobAvakianOfficial everywhere. We're starting in NY and DC. See the posters here:
Download these, print them, make stickers, get them up and out wherever you are!
"A time to shed the cynicism, a time for courage" An Interview with a scholar on Bob Avakian's work
To fund this poster campaign in several cities, we are raising $30,000 by July 1. We have raised $4,531 toward our goal—and the $1,000 matching challenge was made and exceeded. But we have just three weeks to go.
We are in a situation of great danger—but it is shaking people awake. Reach out wherever you can find big groups of people. Spread these posters. Use the fundraising letter below. As we wrote last week, "send out this fundraising letter to people widely—and talk with them about sending it to others. If you're in a big crowd, pass out this fundraising flyer along with the pamphlet, Trump/MAGA Fascism: What We’re Really Facing, Why, and What Must Be Done to Defeat It Before It’s Too Late. Put out the need for funds in a mass way... and talk seriously with people in small groups or one-on-one. If people are serious, make a real argument for why they should get more deeply into Bob Avakian's work and donate substantively to this campaign, and learn their thinking."
The most recent social media messages from Bob Avakian are a sharp and inspiring resource to fight against the terrible culture, and anti-scientific ways of thinking that influence way too many of the decent people.

—REVOLUTION #120: Huge numbers of people have stepped forward in the crucial fight against Trump/MAGA fascism. There is an urgent need to make this fight even more powerful—in numbers and in political impact and effect—and that requires clearly and actively opposing the enemy within this fight.
—REVOLUTION #121: For those “movement progressives,” assorted “anarchists” and self-identified “leftists” who have been engaging in unprincipled opportunist sectarianism, this fundamental question is now sharply posed: What are your actual goals and priorities—uniting all who can be united in the crucial struggle to defeat Trump/MAGA fascism with the aim of bringing something far better into being... or opposing and slandering others who are working tirelessly to do so?
These can make a great contribution to changing the putrid culture which is suffocating the better inclinations and aspirations of people. Get into them yourself, and get these to others.
We'll be sharing more throughout the week from people's experiences raising funds, the discussions all this is breaking open and more. Write to us at info@bobavakianofficialeverywhere.org to share your thinking, what obstacles you're encountering, what you're learning and more.

Donate to cutting through the noise and distraction with the hard, but liberating truth that the revolutionary leader Bob Avakian is bringing people: about the urgency of the need to unite all who can be united to defeat fascism, before it's too late. AND that "there is a whole new way to live—with a fundamentally different system."
Right now, millions and millions are outraged about the "crazed speed" with which the Trump fascist regime is moving—criminalizing dissent, crushing academia, gutting the rule of law, attacking immigrants and trans people, with women and Black and Brown people in their sights. But most people do not understand the gravity of the fascist threat OR the urgent need for this fascism to be defeated, and how that is possible.
This is what people get from the concrete and real-time leadership that Bob Avakian (BA) is providing through his social media, @BobAvakianOfficial.
Millions and millions are agonized about what brought us to this situation in the first place. And many do not want to fight to go back and restore the "status quo" that gave rise to this fascism. But most people do not fully grasp the full weight of this fascism, and there are all sorts of “normalizing” from all sorts of quarters that pull away from their better understanding. They need a scientific analysis of the sources and driving dynamics of it and a living sense of the full weight of what we’re facing in order to wage the fight that is needed. So that’s one big thing.
At the same time, overall in society, people have extremely lowered sights and don't know that there is a whole other way we could be living. A lot of people argue correctly that we can’t just go back to what got us in this mess in the first place, but they don’t yet have a sense of an alternative to strive for. They have not seriously encountered the new communism developed by Bob Avakian: a serious and scientifically grounded framework for making a revolution for a whole new system. The new communism provides the understanding of how to organize society on a radically different foundation with an emancipating transformation of the economy, uplifting ways of relating among people and in the culture that can finally bring an end to the atrocities that are built into the daily functioning of capitalism-imperialism.
At a moment when history pivots on what people understand and what they will fight for, your donation can shake people awake and raise their sights.

This is a mock-up of what the high-impact posters could look like.
The National Campaign to Get @BobAvakianOfficial Everywhere has a goal of raising $30,000 by July 1. This will fund a high-impact poster project in a number of cities (starting with a couple as a pilot project), combined with targeted online advertising.
Imagine you see big posters on the walls speaking in provocative ways to the kinds of themes we discussed above. And that same day, something similar pops up on Instagram. And a couple days later, you come into contact with a revolutionary force spreading the same thing. Well... all this adds up. And makes you sit up and take notice in a different kind of way. It might scratch an itch you didn’t even know you had!
Your donation will have a material impact in changing what people understand, and what they are debating... what they are fighting for and dreaming of.
Your donation will go directly to the high impact on-the-ground and online advertising campaign:
- $70 will pay for a busy NYC intersection to be plastered with large posters for one day.
- $5 will pay for 1 day of advertising on Instagram for BA's social media reaching 500 people between the ages of 18-24 who cross through that same area.
- $350 will pay for 400 large posters around NYC or DC for one day.
- $20 will pay for 1 day of advertising with excerpts from The Bob Avakian Interviews on YouTube to people searching "communism" "Bob Avakian" "Revolution" "fascism" "authoritarianism" etc... This reaches an average of 1,600 people daily.
There are a lot of people working hard right now so that people don't hear about BA. There are the fascists that are working to shut down all debate and dissent. There are the mainstream mouthpieces of this system desperate to keep the opposition to fascism within the narrowest terms of the very system that gave rise to this fascism. And there are those within the social movements who have a vested interest in carving out a niche for themselves within this system and feel that a powerful critique of the system and a sweeping revolutionary vision of what could be possible would threaten that niche.
Your contribution will help break through all that—cracking the blind and unthinking anti-communist dismissal that gives rise to hopelessness and low dreams. We need to open up a much bigger debate: where instead of cancellation and unthinking dismissal, people hear ideas that take them out of their comfort zone and go for the evidence. Where we foster what Bob Avakian has argued for: "broadness of mind and generosity of spirit." A debate about why we're in the situation we're in, what must be done, and whether a whole different way of living is possible.
Donate to having a real impact with Bob Avakian's vision, work and challenge.
