Why we can't lose Revolution Books -
The need for a radically different, liberating world urgently calls out – and yet,
consideration of a solution commensurate with the scale and depth of the problem is
barely regarded as a legitimate topic for serious conversation. It is for THIS reason that
Revolution Books is so urgently needed, and why Revolution Books needs your support
now, today: not only to keep its doors open but to grow as a widely known and visited
center of a movement for revolution, the place where people find the books and the
deep engagement about why the world is the way it is and the possibility of a
profoundly different world.

and truth-teller ...
Designed to highlight Zinn’s most important writings, The Indispensable Zinn includes excerpts from Zinn’s bestselling A People’s History of the United States;
his memoir, You Can’t Be Neutral on a Moving Train; his inspiring writings on the civil rights movement; and the full text of his celebrated play Marx in Soho.
Noted historian and activist Timothy Patrick McCarthy provides essential historical and biographical context for each selection.

On November 15, 1900 people packed The Riverside Church in New York City to experience the Dialogue between Cornel West and Bob Avakian-REVOLUTION AND RELIGION: The Fight for Emancipation and the Role of Religion.
It was an historic event. Two perspectives were set forth-contending and overlapping, struggling for higher ground, and coming back to unity on the need to ACT. The video of the entire Dialogue has now been posted!
If you are someone who is angered and outraged by the horrors of this
world: the oppression of black people and women, the ruthless wars of
imperialism,
the brink of environmental catastrophe, and you are someone who has
dared to dream of a radically different world, then unleash your
imagination!
People need the truth about the communist revolution. The REAL truth. At a time when people are rising up in many places
all over the world and seeking out ways forward, THIS alternative is ruled out of order. At a time when even more people are
agonizing over and raising big questions about the future, THIS alternative is constantly slandered and maligned and lied

face tomorrow... Read More Here
