A Challenge to Raise Funds to GET THE WORD OUT ABOUT THE HISTORIC TALKS BY BOB AVAKIAN!

Our experience this past weekend bears out that the masses are grappling with big questions and that the titles of the new Talks have sparked much interest. There’s a wide audience for these path breaking new Talks. And, there’s a reservoir of MUCH NEEDED financial support among the people to GET THE WORD OUT!

After a slow start this weekend to raise the much needed funds, the Harlem team took the challenge and raised $200 on Saturday. Some was raised among a few store owners in Harlem who know of Bob Avakian already. The rest of it was raised by getting on the phones to people who’ve already been acquainted with Bob Avakian through subscribing to Revolution. Other subscribers to Revolution, people who have already been reading From Ike To Mao, My Journey From Mainstream America to Mao and Beyond, My Journey from Mainstream America to Revolutionary Communist or heard only a taste of the DVD through the Sampler can step forward now and firm up what they have come to know something deeper about the problem in the world and solution by donating money. People who are only now being introduced to Bob Avakian through these Talks while they grapple with big questions can answer this challenge to get these Talks out broadly by donating money. Like a man from Ethiopia who came to the US with his church, concerned about the state of the world, the environment and the many injustices people endure. After one year and realizing that the church was only about controlling what people think and not about critical thought or about figuring out how to get rid of the injustices. He quit the church. Now he is listening to the Talks to seek out that solution to injustice he did not find in the church and see if Bob Avakian is providing the solution.

To all the teams and individuals who have taken up this major public opinion campaign, set goals, aim high and raise funds, NOW!
