* In this episode, host Andy Zee announces the publication of a *NEW* piece:

From Bob Avakian—Revolutionary Leader, Author of the New Communism:

THIS IS A RARE TIME WHEN REVOLUTION BECOMES POSSIBLE—WHY THAT IS SO, AND HOW TO SEIZE ON THIS RARE OPPORTUNITY

Andy says this new piece “is a masterwork of synthesis that, like a machete, carves through all the complexity of what humanity faces, and, like a laser, it cuts to the heart of and illuminates the opening for revolution that exists now, an opening that will not last forever…”

* Co-host Sunsara Taylor interviews Joe Veale, revcom and former member of the Black Panther Party, about his 2005 tribute to Willie “Mobile” Shaw, a comrade who grew up in Watts, Los Angeles and became an emancipator of humanity and a follower of Bob Avakian after meeting the revolution. Joe Veale discusses the profound lessons Mobile’s life holds for today. 

* Annie Day and Michelle Xai, members of the National Revolution Tour in conversation with Sunsara Taylor on the importance of financially sustaining the movement for revolution. And they call on everyone to tune in to the National Fundraising Livestream on Sunday, July 18, 3pm PT / 6pm ET.

* As the chains that hold women down tighten at the same time as the possibility to END this oppression of women becomes even more possible, we bring you: 

Bob Avakian on “A World of Rape & Sexual Assault,” an excerpt from his 2003 speech, REVOLUTION: WHY IT’S NECESSARY, WHY IT’S POSSIBLE, WHAT IT’S ALL ABOUT.

And an important interview Sunsara Taylor did with Derenda Hancock, who is on the frontlines defending the only abortion clinic in Mississippi, in Jackson… on all the hurdles and obstacles that women who seek a safe abortion face… and the state of abortion rights nationwide.
