The day after Donald Trump’s inauguration, Tom Homan, Trump’s border Czar, says he will be in Chicago to launch the MAGA fascists’ mass deportation of immigrants. Tom "Kids in Cages" Homan is guilty of having separated several thousand children from their parents during Donald Trump's first term. Some 1,400 of the over 5,500 children were never reunited with their families.
The Trump/MAGA fascists want to make an example out of this sanctuary city: to break the resolve of decent people who would consider opposing them; to break legal protections and open the way for more massive round ups; and to serve as a battering ram for a fuller fascist offensive.
We call on all decent and justice loving people to join with us in making a different example of this city: Of people finding their courage in righteous, fierce opposition to these deportations, and aiming to move millions in collective action to make it so Trump cannot govern the country and implement his fascist program.
These Trump/MAGA fascists use the guise of "going after the criminals" and "making America safe again" to violently terrorize innocent children and families, and to get you to go along with or passively accept their goal of a White Supremacist, Misogynist, Christian-Fascist America. To those among Black people and Latinos in Chicago who are foolishly joining in the calls for deportation—Don’t be like the rabid white racists! WAKE UP and GET UP OFF that garbage!
The revolutionary leader Bob Avakian says in @BobAvakianOfficial social media message REVOLUTION #111:
The answer to this cannot be—and must not become—an attempt to “hide” from what is coming, or to somehow just “get through” this fascism, or even just individual expressions of outrage about this fascism. Given what is at stake—for people in this country, and in the world as a whole—there must be active, determined opposition to this fascism, with the goal of defeating it.
[T]his is not a time for demoralization and despair. It is not a time for accepting this Trump/MAGA fascism as “legitimate,” and staying within the confines of “how things work” under this system, as Democratic Party heads and other “mainstream” ruling class representatives are urging people to do. It is not a time for turning inward and attempting to “take care of self” as the juggernaut of Trump/MAGA fascism gains momentum and crushes masses of people. This is a time for reaching out to all the others who feel the same outrage at Trump/MAGA fascism—a time for collective action and self-sacrificing struggle for the greater good: the greater good of defeating this fascism.
THIS WHOLE SYSTEM IS ROTTEN AND ILLEGITIMATE:
WE NEED AND WE DEMAND A WHOLE NEW WAY TO LIVE, A FUNDAMENTALLY DIFFERENT SYSTEM
Why do immigrants come here from all over the world? Because the capitalist-imperialist empire of the so-called United States has messed up their homelands even worse than what they have done here—through interventions and invasions on top of the “normal” workings of imperialist plunder, theft, and destruction of the environment.
THE REVCOM CORPS For The Emancipation Of Humanity (Chicago) is serious about building broad unity in opposing fascism, and we are also serious about the actual solution to finally ending all the horrors of this system—revolution, nothing less!
If you have the heart to fight for something truly worth fighting for, you need to get with THE REVCOM CORPS For The Emancipation Of Humanity. In work after work, the revolutionary leader Bob Avakian has brought forward a sweeping, reality-based vision of the world humanity could have—a world not only beyond the worldwide hell created by capitalism-imperialism, but far beyond even the best of what previous socialist societies have done and even envisioned.
