Everything depends on bringing forward a revolutionary people, from among the most bitterly oppressed, and all parts of society, first in the thousands and then in the millions, as a powerful revolutionary force, organized from the start and consistently with a country-wide perspective, impacting all of society and changing the terms of how masses of people see things and how every institution has to respond. Everything must be focused now on actually bringing forward and organizing this revolutionary force.

—from “Something Terrible, Or Something Truly Emancipating:
Profound Crisis, Deepening Divisions, The Looming Possibility Of Civil War—
And The Revolution That Is Urgently Needed.
A Necessary Foundation, A Basic Roadmap For This Revolution
by Bob Avakian, Revolutionary Leader, Author of the New Communism”

** The Declaration and Call to Get Organized for A REAL Revolution says, “Organizing people into this revolution means reaching out to all sorts of people—not just where there are protests and rebellions against oppression and injustice, but everywhere throughout society—spreading the word about revolution and getting people together (in real life and online) to grapple with why an actual revolution is necessary, what such a revolution involves, and what kind of society this is aiming for. This will enable people who are new to the revolution to themselves become organizers for this revolution and to recruit more and more people to do the same.”

This week... and every week... pull together groupings of people – members of the Revolution Club, people who are interested in the revolution, friends and family – to watch and discuss The RNL – Revolution, Nothing Less! – Show.  There's nothing else like this show with its searing agitation about the crimes of this capitalist system, what are the underlying and driving dynamics giving rise to this and why this is unnecessary... why humanity needs revolution—nothing less.... how this is a rare time when revolution has become possible, and how to go work NOW to bring this into being!  It's the place where you hear directly from Bob Avakian – the most important political thinker and leader in the world today... all with a sharp challenge to the people themselves to get out of the bullshit ways of thinking and acting that reinforce the very system that keeps humanity in chains. 

** Recently, revcom posted a serious challenge to people who say they care about humanity, but argue against the need for a real revolution to overthrow this system: “In Light of the Urgency Spoken to in 'Something Terrible, Or Something Truly Emancipating,' A RENEWED CHALLENGE: SEARCHING FOR AN HONEST LIBERAL OR PROGRESSIVE”

This challenge needs to be spread, and seriously debated as part of what needs to be a societal debate over whether we should be working to save this system... or working to overthrow it! Spread it on social media, on college campuses as they're starting to reopen, among high school students, to people in the arts and the professions, on the media... everywhere.

In the face of a fascist onslaught, with millions debating the danger of civil war, people's thinking needs to be seriously challenged with what is happening, why and what people who care about humanity need to be doing. As part of this, spread these basic “TRUTHS WE NEED TO GET FREE” from Bob Avakian, including by using the video illustration of this piece appearing on The RNL Show.

Write back with the debate that gets stirred up!

** Recently, the Revolution Club in LA brought the Revolution Rhyme For This Historic Time to an online poetry reading. This got an inspired response from those watching and the host of the open mic. This is something everyone can do... In addition to reciting it in busy transit hubs, campuses... and spreading on social media. Check out the resource page for this... and seize the time!
