♦ Gather friends and family to watch the Interviews with Bob Avakian and ask them to donate toward promotion so that lots and lots more people will be able to see them. Donations will also support the National Revolution Tour in Los Angeles and the revcom.us website.

The Revolution Club, Chicago, has set a goal of raising $1,000 through what we are calling the “10x10” as part of meeting the $35,000 goal by January 2nd for the revcoms' fund drive. We are reaching out to people to themselves donate $10 and to commit to reach nine more people to do the same.

We call on people who are able to donate $100 or more to this fund drive to match these donations. This is not only a way of raising much needed funds, but is also building a critical component of the movement to put this revolution on the map. It lets people who this system has surrounded, isolated and driven down know that they are not alone. And it lets others know that there is a growing core of emancipators of humanity among those on the bottom of society. Please join us in making this “match.” Donate generously before the end of the year.

Here are several statements from people who have taken up the 10x10:

* * *

"As long as they keep killing our kids, we have to keep fighting. We can't give up. We have to raise money because without the revolutionary club there is no one there to fight for us."

—Panzy Edwards, mother of Dakota Bright, murdered by Chicago police

* * *

"This system is not working. We need new ideas."

—A friend of the Revolution Club who watched all three interviews with Bob Avakian

* * *

"I just have to dig deep into my why: Because the revolutionary club is my friend and when a friend is in need you should be there."

—A local business owner who was shot and blinded on the streets of Chicago. He is a friend of the Revolution Club

* * *

Five people so far have decided to match the 10x10 with individual contributions of $100.

One wrote the following statement: "The Bob Avakian interviews are a synopsis and the highest level of understanding of how to make revolution achieved by mankind. Anyone who wants revolutionary change in this world should study these interviews and actively promote it to other others."

The Reason Why I’m donating is because BA (Bob Avakian) is a true Leader—a Leader who is trying to push forward To End the Horrors of this System. There’s no other leader like him. The other reason I’m donating is because it’s Time to get Organized For an Actual Revolution to end all Oppression and Depression

"What struck me since I watched Bob Avakian's interview was what he said about how women go through so much abuse and brutality. How they really go through so much different stuff, like he said that they can't even walk down the street without hearing all the whistles from the guys. That they have to worry about their safety just to walk down the street. Getting raped. And all they have to go through. I guess I knew this before but it's deeper now that I watched Bob Avakian. It keeps going through my mind. I just keep thinking about what he said about how women have to go through all this!

I really like what Bob Avakian is saying to us all. And that's why I want to do this."

—A retired railroad worker into community arts.

“I'm giving a $100 match to the 10x10 goal of the Revolution Club Chicago because I want to be part of building up the organized forces for the revolution. It will take a lot more than this gift, but I’ll also ask a family member and some other people I know to give. From the illegitimate decision of the Supreme Court to overturn Roe v Wade, to the failure to hold accountable Trump and those responsible for the January 6 failed coup, to the looming possibility of nuclear war, things WILL get worse and though I often lose hope, this campaign to put revolution on the map gives hope.”

—Retired tech worker and supporter of revolution in a northern city
