Suggestions for Relating to Protests Against Israel’s Assault on Gaza
July 25, 2014 | Revolution Newspaper | revcom.us
We are building a movement for revolution, and carrying out a whole ensemble of revolutionary work. In that light, the ongoing protests against Israel’s assault on Gaza are an important opportunity to make an internationalist statement that these war crimes against the Palestinian people must end and that the world needs revolution and communism and to visibly promote Revolution—Nothing Less and revcom.us.
Revcom.us readers may have plans, and here are some suggestions for relating to these protests:
- Where you can, form a revolutionary and internationalist contingent—Revolution Club members might march together, with their t-shirts.
- Bring banners or signs with “Stop Israel’s Assault on Gaza” and “After the Holocaust, the worst thing that has happened to Jewish people is the state of Israel” quote from BAsics (printable PDF available here).
- Get out this issue of Revolution and the previous one.
- Bring print copies of special issue of Revolution on Israel if you have them.
- We are making available to download for printing a quarter-page two-sided flyer with links to the special issue of Revolution—"The Case of Israel: Bastion of Enlightenment or Outpost for Imperialism"—on one side, and links to COMMUNISM: THE BEGINNING OF A NEW STAGE A Manifesto from the Revolutionary Communist Party, USA in English & Arabic on the other.
- Backpack the Manifesto in Arabic and English; introduce people to Bob Avakian with his book BAsics, the handbook for revolution, and the film Bob Avakian Speaks: REVOLUTION—NOTHING LESS!; and get out the new BAsics 3:22 palm card—“You cannot break all the chains, except one...”—building for the August 9 Break ALL the Chains cultural events.
- Important: Even if hand-made, bring signs along the lines of “Get with revolution: revcom.us” big enough to show up in everyone’s photos!
