BA Everywhere
Last week we outlined a plan to make big advances this spring in BA Everywhere—a multifaceted fundraising campaign to make BA a household word so that the vision, framework, and strategy for a radically new society concentrated in the new synthesis of communism that Bob Avakian has developed becomes known all over. Here are two pieces that will be helpful to people in the fundraising efforts this month.
