Event Details

This is not a time for demoralization and despair — it is a time for righteous anger and revolutionary determination.

Is America really divided into “two countries” going back to its founding?

Why has “the world’s greatest democracy” given birth to Trump fascism?

Can we rely on the Democrats to defeat the “fascist country” or does the whole system have to go?

Is revolution for a much better system actually the only good solution to this and is it possible in this time?

Now more than ever is the time to look for solutions outside and beyond this system. We invite you to come together with others to explore these & other questions in a discussion of social media message Revolution #102 from the revolutionary leader Bob Avakian.

This message goes into why half the country voted for a fascist, why fascism will continue to have the initiative under this system, and what masses of people should (and shouldn’t) do in this urgent time.
