In the days since Memphis police beat to death Tyre Nichols—experts, news commentators, and figures in the movements against police brutality are saying the problem is the “system of policing.”

WHAT SYSTEM IS RESPONSIBLE FOR WHAT HAPPENED TO TYRE NICHOLS AND THOUSANDS MORE?

YOUR FINANCIAL SUPPORT MAKES A WORLD OF DIFFERENCE!

Will you give generously to something that can make all the difference—a fund drive to put real revolution on the map on a scale not seen in decades, if ever, in the history of this country?

The existential climate crisis… the threat of nuclear war… police murder… rape and brutality against women… the horrific refugee crisis… this system has no good answers for these crises. In an interview on The RNL—Revolution, Nothing Less!—Show, Bob Avakian (BA) says “We can no longer afford to allow these imperialists to dominate the world and to determine the destiny of humanity. They need to be overthrown as quickly as possible.”
