When: Monday, May 13, 12 Noon 
Where: City Hall/Brooklyn Bridge area at Centre Street/Park Row

After sending the NYPD onto the campuses at Columbia University and the City College of New York in full stormtrooper mode, Eric Adams said, as a proud American, he was “disgusted” by the way protesters disrespected the U.S. flag. And he declared: “We’re not going to surrender our way of life to anyone.”

The students who stood up on their campuses and said no to the mass murder, destruction of hospitals and schools and enforced starvation in Gaza are right. Standing up against the U.S.-Israeli genocide is not Anti-Semitic. And it is inspiring to see them continuing to protest in the face of arrests, suspensions, and lies about being manipulated by “outside agitators.”

Mayor Adams, YOU are disgusting, and you should get ready to be disgusted again.

This American way of life you are so proud of was founded on slavery and genocide and is today a global empire based on wars and plunder. The war your uncle died fighting was a genocidal war fought to drown the liberation struggle of the Vietnamese people in blood. And today America is financing, arming and giving diplomatic cover for the genocidal war Israel is carrying out in Gaza. This is disgusting.

At noon on Monday, May 13 at the City Hall/Brooklyn Bridge area at Centre Street/Park Row, Carl Dix and the RevCom Corps for the Emancipation of Humanity will lay bare the truly depraved way of life Eric "Black Giuliani” Adams finds so precious and why it's long past time for this way of life to be gotten rid of thru revolution and how the chance of a lifetime to overthrow this rotten system needs to be grabbed hold of by all of us who refuse to accept this terrible future it has in store for humanity.

We will address why Adams and the others responsible for the brutal crackdown on the students protesting the U.S.-Israeli genocide in Gaza are wrong and how this crackdown exposes the vulnerability of this system. It is disgusting you all have revived the ghosts of 1960s segregationist sheriffs like Alabama’s Bull Connor to try to justify your criminal actions.

And we will demonstrate for Eric Adams the proper way to treat the American flag.

We are at a turning point in history. The capitalist-imperialist system is a horror for billions of people here and around the world and threatening the very fabric of life on earth. Now the election of fascist Trump poses even more extreme dangers for humanity—and underscores the total illegitimacy of this system, and the urgent need for a radically different system.

The website Revcom.us follows the revolutionary leadership of Bob Avakian (BA), the author of the new communism. Bob Avakian has scientifically analyzed that we are in a rare time when an actual revolution has become more possible in the U.S. He’s charted a strategy for making that revolution, and laid out a sweeping vision and concrete blueprint for “what comes next” in the Constitution for the New Socialist Republic in North America.

Revcom.us projects BA’s voice, leadership, and vision throughout society. It posts his timely leadership for the revcoms (revolutionary communists) and the whole movement for revolution, including his social media posts, and curates his whole body of work. 

Our website applies the scientific approach BA has developed to analyze major events in society and the world—why they are happening, how they relate to each other, how all this relates to the system we live under, where people's interests lie, how revolution is in fact the solution to all this, and what the goals of that revolution are.

Revcom.us acts as a guiding and connecting hub for the revcom movement nationwide: showing what’s being done, digging into what’s right and what’s wrong, and rapidly learning—and recruiting new people into what has to be a rapidly growing force. As part of this, revcom.us feature and promotes the weekly The RNL—Revolution, Nothing Less!—Show on YouTube.com. 

Put it this way: there will be no revolution unless this website not only “keeps going” but rises to a whole different level!
