Looking Forward to the “Where We Are in the Revolution” Talk

April 29, 2014 | Revolution Newspaper | revcom.us

The upcoming talk “Where We Are in the Revolution,” which will be given in major cities across the country in May, comes at an important moment in the movement for revolution we ARE building with the Party as its leading core.

The flyers announcing the talk should be distributed broadly, and other creative means should be found to publicize this talk. As we mobilize people to come hear this talk, a critical and important tool to winning those who want to know what this talk will be about—and why they must be there—is playing the New Year's message "A Call To REVOLUTION" from Bob Avakian, and getting it into people’s hands. And when opportunities exist, let’s discuss this message.

As BA says in that message:

Revolution is not an impossible dream. It is not "unrealistic." Changing all of society, changing the whole world, is not a crazy or dangerous idea. What is crazy, and dangerous, is going along with the way things are, and where things are heading, under this system. Revolution—a radical change in how society works, how we relate as human beings, what our values are, how we understand the world and act to affect it—this is what we, what people all over the world, desperately need. And it is a lot more realistic than trying to "fix" this system.

All those who have connected with this movement and all those who have contributed to this movement—in both large and small ways—need to hear this talk, “Where We Are in the Revolution.” And all those who hate the world as it is and long for a way out of the suffering people the world over live every day need to be there. All those who think or have thought we need a better world, a different future for humanity, need to hear this talk. People who must hear this talk can be found in the neighborhoods, at college campuses and high schools, and at large gatherings like May Day and Cinco de Mayo events. And again, key to winning people to come to this talk is the New Year's message from BA; this message should go out as broadly as possible.

So let’s be bold and creative in reaching out to people from all walks of life to come to this talk, to find out about this revolution and where we are in the process of making this revolution and emancipating all of humanity—and to learn how they can be a part of changing the world.
