Episode 180: 4 Reasons We Need A Revolution, The Leader Who Can Lead It & The Millions Needed To Join Now
One. Andy Zee opens the show highlighting the record number of people killed by US police in 2023: an average of three people a day killed by pigs, Black people twice as likely to be targeted and killed than the average; Native Americans 2.2 times as likely to die; and Latinos also dying in disproportionate numbers at the hands of these enforcers. This is drawn from the article, “After Years of Promises and Reforms, the Plague of Police Violence and Murder Got Even Worse in 2023. Only Revolution Can End This Madness,” at revcom.us.
Bob Avakian,the leader of the revolution and the architect of the New Communism, on police murder, from the 2014 dialogue, “REVOLUTION AND RELIGION: The Fight for Emancipation and the Role of Religion; A Dialogue Between CORNEL WEST & BOB AVAKIAN.”
Sunsara Taylor introduces Bob Avakian on social media! We'll hear Revolution #2, When was America great? Never! You can listen, watch and share BA on social media everywhere: Substack, Instagram, Facebook, X, Telegram, Threads, TikTok, WhatsApp and YouTube
Two. This past week was the 51st anniversary of Roe v. Wade, and the legalizing of abortion nationwide in the US. This right was ripped away in 2022, by the fascist Supreme Court. We'll hear Merle Hoffman, author of “Choices: A Post-Roe Abortion Rights Manifesto,” speaking at Revolution Books in New York on the war being waged against women. Sunsara Taylor then introduces a new feature of the RNL Show, The Stupidest Thing I've Heard this Week. This week, a leader of the Women's March speaking on the anniversary of Roe v. Wade.
Bob Avakian, from the 2018 talk, Why We Need an Actual Revolution, and How We Can Really Make Revolution. We'll hear the first of the “5 Stops,” The Oppression of Black People and Other People of Color.
Sunsara Taylor and Luna Hernandez from the RevComs in LA, talk about taking the revolution to college campuses. The RevComs have been on a mission, to challenge students about actual revolution, and to recruit and organize them into the revolution. They talk about questions they've encountered.
Three. The border. “We don't have an immigration problem. We have an imperialism problem.” The fascist governor of Texas, Greg Abbott, has installed deadly barriers along the US border, and lined the border with heavily armed National Guard troops. This militarized death zone recently took the lives of a mother and two young children. Annie Day talks about the danger of this situation, with the fascists talking about civil war, and Biden and the Democrats proposing measures only slightly less oppressive – while Biden presides over the largest wave of deportations in US history. And she speaks of how all this creates an opening for a real, emancipating revolution, how this could be accomplished, and how a new socialist system would treat immigrants.
Four. The genocide in Gaza. Biden's attacks on Yemen: the criminal hypocrisy of “freedom of navigation,” and the danger of this escalation leading to a larger war.
