Spread two new powerful video clips from BA
July 18, 2016 | Revolution Newspaper | revcom.us
Bob Avakian: Police murder... and the murderous logic of this system's election game.
Bob Avakian and Cornel West on: Is there value to voting? Can voting stop fascism?
Note to readers of revcom.us: Now is a moment to reach out broadly to people with many ways they can contribute to the movement for revolution! Including: through contributing funds, through popularizing and projecting Bob Avakian, through feeding in their ideas, energy and skills. There are many great needs!
One important thing people can do is spread and promote clips now available at revcom.us from REVOLUTION AND RELIGION: The Fight for Emancipation and the Role of Religion; A Dialogue Between CORNEL WEST & BOB AVAKIAN through social media. Below is a template letter you might use to encourage and help people do that. And you may want to combine this with a request for funds or other things people can do to contribute to the movement for revolution at this critical moment.
Dear friend,
Check out these two powerful new video clips posted at revcom.us:
1. Bob Avakian on: Police murder... and the murderous logic of this system’s election game
2. Bob Avakian and Cornel West on: Is there value to voting? Can voting stop fascism?
(These are both excerpts from the West and Avakian Dialogue from 2014 and are INCREDIBLY relevant to the current moment.)
I’m writing to ask you to watch these and spread them to others. This is the truth about WHY police keep murdering Black and Brown people, and WHY they get off for it time and time again. And what will be required to prevent the rise of fascism, and to bring into being a radically different and far better world: resistance and revolution.
Right now, when people are looking for answers, Avakian breaks this down in ways people need to hear and understand.
And… here are a few sample tweets you might use to drive people to check these out… or you can make your own:
