Get Ready Chicago


Coming to Chicago in July
THE NATIONAL GET ORGANIZED FOR AN ACTUAL REVOLUTION TOUR 
5-2-6, JULY 13
On June 8, in the streets of South Central Los Angeles, a beginning force for an actual revolution came on the scene. In the discipline, defiance and joy of the revolutionary cohort marching with chants that put forward the goal of revolution for the emancipation of humanity, is a glimpse of the potential this represents. To see the story of June 8 & 9 in Los Angeles, go to http://www.revcom.us./
Now, the National Get Organized For An Actual Revolution Tour is coming to Chicago! In the city that is known worldwide for not having any future for Black youth, we aim to make real the specter raised in L.A. of an organized force growing for an actual revolution. Black, white, Latino, and Asian, different genders, young and old, stepping forward together to hasten the time when this whole system - that has no future for any of our youth anywhere in the world - can be overthrown, and replaced with something radically better.
The tour will be in Chicago for six weeks, beginning July 13: disturbing the air throughout the city and organizing forces for revolution, especially on the South and West sides. It will start with a kickoff weekend July 12, 13, 14. 
  • July 12 - welcome dinner for the tour at the Revolution Club Organizing Center.
  • July 13 - the official kickoff begins with mini-rallies and marches all over the city.
  • July 14 - film showing of the speech from Bob Avakian, Why We Need An Actual Revolution And How We Can Really Make Revolution.
There will be a nationwide fundraising weekend for the tour on July 27 and 28. This will all come together in mid-August with a major manifestation of the revolution and with a city-wide film showing of Why We Need An Actual Revolution And How We Can Really Make Revolution.
This week, Revolution Club Chicago and supporters met to make plans to kick this off right, on the basis of bringing forward and relying on many people who have had enough of the horrors of this system, can be challenged by the need for revolution, and would be inspired by and want to realize the vision of this tour. Your ideas and efforts are needed, in ways big and small.
There are many ways to contribute to this effort and four teams you can connect with. To contact the teams, call 312.804.9121, email revclub.chi@gmail.com, or DM us on social media @revclubchi.
Billboard on the Expressway!
The first step of building a revolutionary force is to totally change what people see as necessary and possible. Help us spread the message and tell the story of the image at the top of this page. We need to raise in the range of $2,000 to $5,000 right away to put up a billboard on the expressway. Also needed is art for the billboard and your ideas to help spread this message and tell this story. To find out more go to @tuneintorevcom and http://www.revcom.us./
