"Whether you agree with everything Bob
Avakian professes or not, the power of his words will shake you into a
profound reexamination of your core beliefs."
—Jean Krasno, Lecturer in the Department of Political Science;
Director, Multilateralism and International Organization Initiative at the
Colin Powell Center for Policy Studies at City College of New York;
Distinguished Fellow at the Center for International Security Studies at Yale University
Do not sleep though this revolution!
Avakian’s speech, when focusing on the Trump administration’s
anti-humanistic actions and policies, demands that we remain awake. It
demands that we take action to stop Trump’s allies, enablers, racists
and evangelical apologists from making good on their dystopian “Making
America Great Again” slogan....
Dr. David I. Orenstein, Professor of Anthropology, Medgar Evers College/CUNY
The speech is well-loaded with a
plethora of information which needs to be distributed among as many
people as possible…millions!... He was so crystal-clear. He didn't
sugar-coat. He didn’t say, “Oh well, if this doesn’t happen then maybe
the next presidential election...” Like trying to sweep it under the
rug, like “this too shall pass.” No, this needs to be addressed! And
that’s what really lured me in, and now I’m hooked.

“I am very strong recommending, Bob
Avakian, my brother; in a prophetic way he highlights real issues that
are happening in the U.S. ... a prophet is the one with the capacity to
first identify problems; second have the capacity and the courage to
denounce the problem. But more important, to change that reality of
oppression into a liberating experience.”...
Father Luis Barrios, Holyrood Church/Iglesia Santa Cruz, NYC
"Too often, we decide to vote for
Democrats because they are the lesser of two evils.... Avakian’s advice
that we should not vote for the lesser of two evils because it is evil
cuts very close to home."
Rev. Frank Wulf, Pastor, Echo Park United Methodist Church, Los Angeles
