It is, in fact, a whole new framework for human emancipation. No one else has done what BA has done.

Through February, Black History Month, we are highlighting selections from Bob Avakian (BA), revolutionary leader and author of the new communism, speaking to the oppression of Black people, how that oppression is rooted in the history of this country and the nature of the system of capitalism-imperialism, and the potential for Black people to play a crucial role in putting an end to that system through revolution.

BOB AVAKIAN FOR THE LIBERATION OF BLACK PEOPLE AND THE EMANCIPATION OF ALL HUMANITY
“There is the potential for something of unprecedented beauty to arise out of unspeakable ugliness: Black people playing a crucial role in putting an end, at long last, to this system which has, for so long, not just exploited but dehumanized, terrorized and tormented them in a thousand ways—putting an end to this in the only way it can be done—by fighting to emancipate humanity, to put an end to the long night in which human society has been divided into masters and slaves, and the masses of humanity have been lashed, beaten, raped, slaughtered, shackled and shrouded in ignorance and misery.”
