A call from THE REVCOM CORPS For The Emancipation Of Humanity
On the anniversary of Frederick Douglass' speech "What to the slave is your 4th of July?”

“FOR REVOLTING BARBARITY AND SHAMELESS HYPOCRISY, AMERICA REIGNS WITHOUT A RIVAL”

JULY 5, 12-2 pm — Gathering and Speakout
African American Civil War Memorial, 10th and U Street
Near the U Street/African-American Civil War Memorial/Cardozo Metro Station
Washington, DC

At a time of Escalating Trump/MAGA fascism…

What to the immigrants fleeing homelands ruined by American empire and now hunted by heavily armed masked thugs?

What to Black people first enslaved, then segregated and lynched, and now incarcerated and murdered by police?

What to trans people whose very existence is now being erased from public life?

What to women abused and degraded, and now being forced to bear children in a Handmaid's Tale nightmare?

What to the Palestinian children blown apart by made-in-the-USA bombs?

What, to oppressed humanity, is your 4th of July?

And when do we stop celebrating all this, and start to demand a whole new way to live, a fundamentally different system? ANSWER: NOW!

Come together to hear the truth about America’s history, and how this is part of what gave rise to Trump/MAGA fascism. Bring your deep questioning, and your searching for a better way to live. Be together with people who are serious about defeating Trump’s fascism, and serious about a revolution to bring about a future worth living and fighting for.

THE REVCOM CORPS For The Emancipation Of Humanity is a disciplined revolutionary force working tirelessly to bring about a real, emancipating revolution as soon as possible. We follow the revolutionary leader Bob Avakian, who authored The New Communism and a Constitution for a new, radically different and much better society and system. Bob Avakian has said:

Leading into the Civil War in the 1860s, the election of Lincoln as President was the “last straw” that propelled the slave-owners in the South to break with the “United States” and wage war to maintain their slave-based Confederacy. Today, for those opposed to slavery and oppression in every form, this election of the fascist Trump must be the “last straw” which propels a revolutionary struggle to break with, and bring down, this whole system which, as I have shown over and over again, rests on ruthless exploitation and murderous oppression, and which has now given rise to this fascism as the direct political descendant of the slave-owning Confederacy.

We are at a turning point in history. The capitalist-imperialist system is a horror for billions of people here and around the world and threatening the very fabric of life on earth. Now the election of fascist Trump poses even more extreme dangers for humanity—and underscores the total illegitimacy of this system, and the urgent need for a radically different system.

The website Revcom.us follows the revolutionary leadership of Bob Avakian (BA), the author of the new communism. Bob Avakian has scientifically analyzed that we are in a rare time when an actual revolution has become more possible in the U.S. He’s charted a strategy for making that revolution, and laid out a sweeping vision and concrete blueprint for “what comes next” in the Constitution for the New Socialist Republic in North America.

Revcom.us projects BA’s voice, leadership, and vision throughout society. It posts his timely leadership for the revcoms (revolutionary communists) and the whole movement for revolution, including his social media posts, and curates his whole body of work. 

Our website applies the scientific approach BA has developed to analyze major events in society and the world—why they are happening, how they relate to each other, how all this relates to the system we live under, where people's interests lie, how revolution is in fact the solution to all this, and what the goals of that revolution are.

Revcom.us acts as a guiding and connecting hub for the revcom movement nationwide: showing what’s being done, digging into what’s right and what’s wrong, and rapidly learning—and recruiting new people into what has to be a rapidly growing force. As part of this, revcom.us feature and promotes the weekly The RNL—Revolution, Nothing Less!—Show on YouTube.com. 

Put it this way: there will be no revolution unless this website not only “keeps going” but rises to a whole different level!

DONATE NOW to revcom.us and get with BA and the revcoms!
