Online Zoom Event - "Woke" Lunacy vs REAL Revolution

 

In a time of rapid change—rising MAGA fascism, threat of nuclear war between U.S. and Russia or China, worsening climate catastrophe, intensifying oppression of Black people, immigrants, women and LGBTQ people—young people need to be looking at the big picture, seeking out root causes and actual solutions. Instead, "woke" identity politics is shutting down questioning, lowering people's sights, destructively misdirecting their outrage and contributing to the nightmare.

Bob Avakian has deeply analyzed the perniciousness of “wokeness” and cancel culture, where it came from, and how to win people away from it, in the service of making a liberating revolution that puts an end to oppression and exploitation in every form. Rooting themselves in this work, Sunsara Taylor and the revcoms are out to demolish the whole framework of "woke" identity politics, lift people's sights, and win growing numbers to a scientific approach and to real revolution.

Sunsara Taylor is a fighter for a real revolution based on the new communism developed by Bob Avakian. She is a co-host of the The RNL—Revolution, Nothing Less!—Show. She has been on the front lines for women's liberation since the 1990s and co-founded Rise Up 4 Abortion Rights, which led tens of thousands into the streets in 2022 to fight the Supreme Court's overturning of Roe v. Wade.

“Sunsara turned woke-ness on its head and made it feel comical. She was inspiring. Instead of crawling in the dirt, cancelling and obsessing over identity, she lifted our sights to a real revolution that sets all of humanity free. Afterwards, a throng of young people formed around Sunsara to keep talking and just touch her fearlessness.”—an attendee at Sunsara Taylor’s speech in Berkeley

DONATE to the revolution.

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?
