<span style="color: black; font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif";">On January 20, something many said couldn't happen here did
happen – a fascist regime was inaugurated: the illegitimate Trump-Pence regime.
This was met by thousands of people who took to the streets in Washington, DC,
and elsewhere in protest on the day of the inauguration, and by
millions of women and men who marched in DC, and in cities across the
country and around the world on the very next day.<br /></span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif";">This outpouring is very welcome, and these

Trump-Pence rule would mean. </span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif";">Everybody who hates what Donald Trump represents needs to get in
the streets and stay in the streets. The point now isn't just to let this
fascist regime know we aren't going anywhere – we need to send them somewhere,
to remove them from power.</span></div>
<div style="margin-top: 15.1pt;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif";">The Trump-Pence regime would be more than the sum of the many
abuses and outrages it plans to perpetrate. If it isn't prevented from
ruling, it will be, as a regime, <strong><span style="font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif";">FASCIST </span></strong>— <strong><span style="font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif";">a blatant dictatorship relying on
open terror and violence</span></strong>, committing atrocities
against groups of people identified as “enemies,” “undesirables,” or
“dangers to society.” A Trump-Pence regime would not only be <strong><span style="font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif";">illegitimate</span></strong>; if

belong to a church, reach out to your congregation. If you’re in a labor
union, reach out to fellow union members. If you’re part of social media
networks, reach out to everyone you know. <br />
<br />
These next few days will set a tone and we must NOT underestimate our ability
to affect change right now. So call on everyone to flood the
streets. Through staying in the streets and disrupting business as usual,
over the next few days and into this coming week, we could together grow to
millions and bring into being a major political crisis, to which all the
factions in the power structure would have to react.</span></div>

November 21, 2016 | <em>Revolution</em> Newspaper | revcom.us</div>
<div class="blurb">
<br /></div>
On <em>Saturday Night Live</em>, Dave Chappelle said Black people
have survived worse than Donald Trump and they’ll be able to survive
this too. And that Trump was white people’s problem and they should
deal with it. This is straight-up wrong and very dangerous.<br /><br />
Trump has demonized immigrants and Muslims. He has demeaned
and degraded women and boasted of sexually assaulting them. He has
advocated for torturing and murdering families of people accused of
terrorism. He has called climate change a hoax and promoted policies
that will escalate the devastation of the planet we live on. His
election has unleashed white supremacist forces to attack everybody
they see as “others.”<br /><br />
It is incredibly narrow and selfish to say a fascist coming to
power in the most powerful country in the world is “somebody else’s
problem.” This is a problem for all of humanity, and <strong>everybody has a responsibility to stop this</strong>.
When people stand aside while fascists come after other groups of
people—it strengthens the ability of the fascists to consolidate their
rule and later come after those who stood aside.<br /><br />
Anyone who says Trump isn’t a problem for Black people is
refusing to look reality square in the face. I know Black people have
caught hell in America since the first Africans were dragged to these
shores in slave chains. The savage oppression they’ve been subjected
to—slavery, Jim Crow segregation, lynch mob terror, and today’s New Jim
Crow of mass incarceration and police terror—has been built into the
fabric of this capitalist-imperialist system from the beginning. Anyone
who looks at this history and comes to the conclusion that Black
people should just tough it out through whatever Trump might add to it
has lost their goddamn mind. This savage oppression is unacceptable and
illegitimate. It’s one big reason why this system should be ripped up
from its foundations and replaced with a totally different and far
better way for people to live, why it must be done away with through an
actual revolution at the soonest possible time. If this was the only
thing wrong with this system, and it’s far from the only thing wrong
with it, this would be reason enough to make revolution to wipe it off
the face of the earth.<br /><br />
I have called the current situation faced by Black people,
what it comes down to, a slow genocide. But a slow genocide could
become a fast one, and this is what a Trump regime is objectively
moving to bring about. His election has unleashed a lynch mob
mentality, with his supporters targeting immigrants, Muslims, women,
LGBT people, AND Black people. Trump is appointing racists and even an
outright white supremacist to his cabinet and key positions on his White
House staff.<br /><br />
People like Alabama Senator Jeff Sessions. This man called a
white civil rights attorney a traitor to his race. His racism was so out
there that a Senate committee headed by Republicans wouldn’t approve
his nomination to be a federal judge back in the 1980s. Now he’s
Trump’s pick to be the new Attorney General. Steve Bannon, who headed
up the Breitbart online news site, a platform for fascist and white
supremacist forces, has been picked to be the chief strategist and
senior counselor to the president. Or Rudolph Giuliani who unleashed
draconian and police state measures when he was mayor of New York. He
was a major surrogate during Trump’s campaign and is now being
considered for a cabinet post.<br /><br />
In a country that already offers no future for Black youth and
has many of them on a track to go in and out of prison, Trump has
declared he’ll be a Law and Order president and will implement
stop-and-frisk throughout the country. Think of what this will mean. At
the height of stop-and-frisk, the NYPD stopped tens of thousands of
mostly Black and Latino people every month. They subjected them to the
harassment of being stopped by the police and the humiliation of having a
pig run thru their pockets in front of neighbors and strangers and
worse. Every Black and Latino person in New York City knew this could
be done to them at any time for no reason other than the color of their
skin. And that this could end with them being brutally beaten or even
murdered by the cops, even if you hadn’t done anything wrong. Then
there’s Trump’s stance on the case of the Central Park 5. These were
five Black and Latino men who were railroaded into prison on charges of
rape in 1989. Back then Trump called for the reinstatement of the
death penalty so these men could be executed. Even though the real
rapist came forward and confessed and the courts found these men
innocent, Trump still says the Central Park 5 should still be in jail.<br /><br />
What does all this say about what a Trump regime will mean for
Black people? That even more savage oppression will be enforced on
Black people. And this will come down as part of an overall program of
demonizing immigrants and Muslims, taking the right to have an abortion
away from women, and more.<br /><br />
This is a problem for all of humanity, and everybody who has
any concern for the future of humanity needs to be a part of standing
up against the horrors this will mean for the people of the world. The
fact that a whole lot of people, especially large numbers of white
people, have taken to the streets to reject a Trump presidency is a
good thing for humanity. More people of all nationalities, including
larger numbers of Black people, need to flow into the streets and join
these protests and get involved in the resistance in many other ways.
The future of humanity is at stake here.Carl Dixhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11741044651832315638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9420023.post-45390016697203297082016-11-09T05:50:00.002-08:002016-11-09T10:28:31.278-08:00Donald Trump Will Lead the US Empire – The Fight Against All He Represents Begins Today<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="font-size: medium;">Donald
Trump Will Lead the US Empire – <br />The Fight Against All He
Represents Begins Today</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Carl Dix, Revolutionary
Communist Party<br /><br />See from the RCP:</span><a href="http://revcom.us/a/464/a-vile-fascist-has-been-elected-president-of-the-united-states-en.html" style="color: black;"> A vile fascist has been elected President of the United States. </a><a href="http://revcom.us/a/464/a-vile-fascist-has-been-elected-president-of-the-united-states-en.html" style="color: black;" target="_blank">There must be no illusions that somehow this will be OK. It won't.</a></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
Donald Trump - an ugly fascist who
campaigned on promises to build a wall, deport millions of immigrants
and ban Muslims from entering the US; who bragged about sexually
assaulting women and more – will be the next president of the US.
Everybody who opposes injustice has reason to be very concerned for
the future of humanity. This concern has already erupted in angry
protests, and it needs to move people to waging massive resistance to
everything Trump stands for. <b>This is not a time for conciliation
or retreat; it's not a time for despair. It's a time for struggle; a
time for courage.</b></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
Let's be clear. Trump, even more than
his predecessors, is a grotesque representative of
capitalist/imperialist America. From its birth in slavery and
genocide, this system has always been a nightmare for countless
millions around the world and this country. The horrors of life under
this system are rooted in the very way this system operates. From the
beginning this system treated Trump – the fascist blowhard - as a
legitimate candidate to head the U.S. Empire. That underlines the
illegitimacy of the whole damn system. The ugly infighting in the
ruling class this campaign laid bare exposes a system in crisis.
</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
A Trump presidency points to even more
horrific crimes being perpetrated against humanity. Massive
resistance is needed to all he represents right now. But this
resistance must NOT be aimed at returning to what has been,
continuing the same brutal system, its crimes and horrors.
</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
What's necessary and possible is a
totally different world for people to live in. Doing this will take
revolution, nothing less. We in the <a href="http://revcom.us/index.html">Revolutionary
Communist Party (RCP) </a>are organizing right now for an actual
revolution, one that overthrows this system and replaces it with a
far better one. We have the leadership needed to make this revolution
in <a href="http://revcom.us/avakian/">Bob Avakian</a>, the leader of
the RCP. We have a blueprint for the new society this revolution can
create in the <a href="http://revcom.us/socialistconstitution/index.html">Constitution
for the New Socialist Republic in North America</a>. And we have the
strategy for making revolution in a country like this one, a strategy
that is laid out in the pamphlet, “<a href="http://revcom.us/a/457/how-we-can-win-en.html">How
We Can Win.</a>”</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
This is a time for resisting the
horrors of this system, a time for taking advantage of the crisis of
this system, a time to be in the streets. And it's a time for
everyone who hates and wants to end the horrors people face in this
country and around the world to get into the revolution.</div>

<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">The
openly white supremacist character of “Blue Lives Matter,” was
revealed Sunday in Chicago as a vicious mob of hundreds of white
people confronted revcoms and other protesters standing up against
the police murder of Joshua Beal.<a href="http://revcom.us/a/464/chicago-cop-kills-joshua-beal-during-his-cousins-funeral-procession-en.html" target="_blank"> Beal was murdered</a> by an off-duty Chicago cop while he was part of a
funeral procession traveling through the neighborhood of Mt
Greenwood where many white cops and firefighters live. </span></span>
</div>

<div style="background: #ffffff; margin-bottom: 0.13in;">
<a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" name="_GoBack"></a>
<span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">The crowd had the
feel of a lynch mob, some people wore confederate flag t-shirts,
others had signs that read “animals go home,” “keep out of our
town, you fucked yours up, don’t come over here,” “Justice WAS
done” referring to Joshua’s murder. Some seemed overjoyed that a
Black man was killed – one man was overheard saying, “this is the
spot where he was killed? Let’s have a barbeque!” </span></span>
</div>
<div style="background: #ffffff; margin-bottom: 0.13in;">
<span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">But
this was not </span></span><span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><u>only
</u></span></span><span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">a
vitriolic racist crowd, it was filled with people who identified
themselves as “relatives” of cops, and every indication is that
some were off-duty cops. They chanted repeatedly, “N**ger go
home,” and “CPD, CPD, CPD,” joining their unmistakable white
supremacist message with their support for the police terror against
Black and Latino people.” It brought together the ugly reality that
the foundation of this system is slavery, genocide and war and why it
has to be overthrown by revolution. </span></span>
</div>
<div style="background: #ffffff; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #2e2925;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><b>Dee
Williams from the Revolution Club Chicago gave this statement: </b></span></span></span>
</div>
<div style="background: #ffffff; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #2e2925;">“</span><span style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">The
police murder of Joshua Beal was a lynching, and this crowd was like
a lynch mob of old. It made me think of footage of the racists
attacking the Freedom Riders in the South in the 1960's or the racist
mobs in Marquette Park here in Chicago in the 60’s and 70’s. They
shouted "CPD, CPD, CPD" and "Trump, Trump. Trump",
a testament to what this ugly election has unearthed from the soil
of Amerikkka and the enforcers of this system. Being out there
deepened the resolve of members of the Chicago Revolution Club to
organize many more people into the revolution and speed up the time
when we can overthrow this system of capitalism imperialism and bring
a whole new world into being. All people of conscience need to take a
stand against this ugly racism and demand Justice for Joshua Beal.”

</div>
<div align="JUSTIFY" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">In
the midst of this, a young white student and her two friends crossed
the line and stood with the people protesting the murder of Joshua
Beal. She held the Stolen Lives banner with pictures of dozens of
people killed by police. She said: “most of my friends are on the
other side, this infuriates me, they are probably really pissed at me
for crossing the line, but I couldn’t take it anymore”. She
continued, “I am here today for the injustice of people that just
keeps happening, this racism that’s institutionalized into our
homes and in our backyards, in Mt Greenwood especially. Mt Greenwood
is so racist, man, we just had somebody shot…so many times…and
people want to deny and say it’s not because of skin color, but
what else is it? I’m ready to make a stand now, I’m ready. Before
I would sit quietly, you know, maybe protest online, but now I’m
ready to make my voice heard… and speak for those… amplify their
voices, not speak over them, but amplify their voices. Thank you.”</span></span></div>

</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">The
truth must be known about this outbreak of white supremacy and racist
hatred needs to be met head on. People from all walks of life, and
all nationalities need to take a stand. No one can stand aside. Which
side are you on?</span></span></div>

RevComs,

across the country, even as they themselves refuse to vote and are
organizing to overthrow the system at the soonest possible time.</div>

Under the theme, <a href="http://sable.madmimi.com/c/9958?id=199131.7250.1.050276d5d0e9b46334213a1d92accea2" style="color: darkblue; text-decoration: none; word-break: break-word;" target="_blank">"America Was NEVER Great, Overthrow -- Don't Vote -- For This System,"</a> they are on a <a href="http://sable.madmimi.com/c/9958?id=199131.7251.1.b4c458dab5a624cd2321fc3b15fb0a8b" style="color: darkblue; text-decoration: none; word-break: break-word;" target="_blank">National Get Into the Revolution Organizing Tour</a>.
As part of this, RevComs have traveled to the battle-ground states of
Arizona and Ohio to prevent voter intimidation and harassment of Black
people, immigrant citizens, and other oppressed people. They have put
out hotlines for people to report any intimidation or harassment aimed
at suppressing their vote with the promise that, “We will go there and
STOP it!”</div>

“When
white supremacists bigots like Trump and other fascists mobilize to
intimidate Black and other oppressed people from voting, this is an
attempt to force us back to the days of lynch-mob terror and open white
supremacy. This absolutely must be stopped and we will put our bodies on
the line to do it,” said Carl Dix.</div>
<div align="left" style="color: black; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1.3em; margin-left: 0; margin-right: 0; margin-top: 0; padding-bottom: 0; padding-left: 0; padding-right: 0; padding-top: 0; text-align: left; unicode-bidi: embed; vertical-align: baseline;">
At
the same time, in what might seem to some as counter-intuitive, Dix and
the RevComs themselves do not vote and do not think that others should
either. “If slaves had been allowed to vote for their slave master,
they'd still be slaves. It wouldn't be 'less bad' because they had a say
in who owned them. Same thing today. Picking who runs this
capitalist-imperialist system of mass incarceration, police terror,
violence against women, and global wars and plunder is not meaningful.
What is meaningful is overthrowing this system – making a revolution and
building a new society without exploitation and oppression.”</div>

<em>Friday, September 23—Carl Dix called revcom.us from Charlotte, North Carolina, and gave us the following statement as he
marched in tonight’s protest:</em><br />
<br />When I saw that video of Keith Lamont Scott’s wife watching
and recording her husband’s murder, it made me mad as hell—and it made
me want to go rushing through Charlotte to find some people and call on
them to <a href="http://revcom.us/a/458/INTO-THE-STREETS-NOW-en.html">TAKE TO THE STREETS</a>.
At first I had some trouble finding people. And then I heard people are
in the streets downtown, and I rushed to catch up with them. There’s
not as many people as yesterday, but it is still hundreds of people.
It’s mostly a youthful crowd. Look, it’s beautiful.<br />
<br />There are people of different races and nationalities, and
they took to the streets and started marching around shutting down
downtown Charlotte. But they had an aim in mind in doing that. As they
marched, they made a move to Interstate 77. The police were acting as if
they were in position to try to stop this, when the move happened. The
police had actually blocked the highway themselves as a way to try and
keep the protesters off the highway. It did them no good. The protesters
had one way to get on the highway and double-downed another. And all of
a sudden, hundreds of us were on the highway, marching.<br />

9/24/16: Carl Dix from the Revolutionary Communist Party speaking in
Charlotte, NC, at the end of a rally and march demanding justice for
Keith Lamont Scott, murdered by Charlotte police.
<br />
<br />The people are very determined. They are angry. They are
calling for the release of the tapes. They are taking up the chant
“Indict, Convict, Send the Killer Cops to Jail! The Whole Damn System Is
Guilty as Hell!” There’s a lot of “Black Lives Matter,” a lot of “No
Justice, No Peace.” There are a lot of very determined people in the
streets. And that’s needed in the face of this onslaught of police
murder after police murder after police murder—and the whole system
going into motion to justify it. People standing up and resisting and
saying “We’re Not Gonna Take This Shit Anymore!” and meaning it and
acting on it.<br />
<br />And the other thing that’s needed is that this has gotta be
connected with the revolution. Because we need an actual revolution. We
gotta get rid of the system that does this to people again and again and
is responsible for all the other horrors. Because there is no way you
can solve this problem within this system. It’s built into its fabric
and framework. When cops kill and brutalize Black people and Latino
people, it’s not rogue cops violating the procedure—it’s police doing
their job.<br />
<br />We’ve got to hammer that home to people and bring to them that
we need revolution—and that we’ve got the leadership for it in Bob
Avakian (BA), and we’ve got the strategy and programmatic approach for
that revolution. And we need to connect that to how we have to get
organized now for an actual revolution.<br />
I hope I’m coming through, ‘cause I’m marching along, and
there’s a lot of chanting going on. People ought to give themselves a
roar for what they’ve accomplished tonight. They did it, and they’re
gonna keep doing it. People are chanting, “We’re young, we’re strong,
we’re marching all night long.” I got a lot of determination, but I’m
not that young, so I’ll see how long I can go.<br />
<br />But look, this is beautiful, it’s powerful, it’s important.
And it’s gotta get connected to a movement for an actual revolution to
get rid of the system that’s responsible for the horrors.Carl Dixhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11741044651832315638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9420023.post-57718396496687141422016-09-25T14:42:00.003-07:002016-09-25T14:42:48.064-07:00‘American empire treats Blacks like a conquered people’ <br />

<blockquote>
<em>"The thing is the police have been unleashed
by the system to brutalize and even murder people and then when people
refuse to continue accepting it, the police are unleashed to crush them
standing up... The police are killing us, and everything that the system
says you are supposed to do, people have done: they have elected
officials who they thought would stop it, they have tried to get body
cameras, they’ve held town hall meetings; tried to get reforms passed
and still police continue to kill people and get away with it no matter
how horrific the circumstances. And then they tell people, “Wait for the
investigation.” But what is there to investigate? In Tulsa, Oklahoma
the man had his hands up on the car and they shot him and they are
saying “wait for us to investigate” and told outright lies that
contradicted by the video. In Charlotte, they are saying “We have a
policy that we can’t release the video.” So you should believe the
police story until you learn different. But why should we believe them
if they lie all the time?"</em> - <strong>Carl Dix</strong>, founding member of the Revolutionary Communist Party.</blockquote>

Look at
how they walk him over to his car with his hands up and make him assume
the position with his hands on his car. And look at how they tase him
and gun him down for nothing.<br /><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<iframe width="320" height="266" class="YOUTUBE-iframe-video" data-thumbnail-src="https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Dr_CWr5iSLY/0.jpg" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/Dr_CWr5iSLY?feature=player_embedded" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe><br /></div>
And it’s even worse than it looks. Terence wasn’t involved in
any criminal activity. His car stalled on the road. There was no reason
to treat him as anything other than a motorist who needed help, but
these pigs saw him as a dangerous suspect. A pig in a helicopter
hovering above the scene said he looked like “a bad dude.” And as
someone they had a license to murder. The pig who fired the kill shot
was on her radio saying she wasn’t getting cooperation from Terence even
tho’ the video shows him walking with his hands up back to his car. And
a police spokesperson gave their official statement to the press which
was full of lies to try to justify this murder. She claimed Terence
refused to cooperate with officers and reached into his car as why they
had to gun him down.<br /><br />
Look at this video and tell me why anyone should believe anything
the pigs say about why they brutalize and murder people. Or why we
should listen when the authorities tell us to wait for the investigation
to be concluded; or rely on the Justice Department to get justice.<br />
Tell me why we should listen when Obama tells us about all the
progress Black people have made in this country. Back in the day, white
people in the South used to hurry to not miss it when the KKK had
announced they were going to lynch a Black person. Look at those pigs in
the video racing onto the road and drawing their guns so they could get
in on this modern day lynching. All that’s changed is the color of the
uniforms worn by those carrying out the lynchings.<br /><br />
This must be STOPPED! What will it take to do that? This is a
presidential election season, and I can guarantee you that whoever ends
up in the White House, this system will keep unleashing its police to
brutalize and murder Black people. Body cameras on police? We’ve seen
videos of police killing people – Eric Garner, Tamir Rice,
Gilbert Flores and many others, and still police kill people again and
again; and the system exonerates them when their murderous deeds get
dragged into the light of day. These pigs in Tulsa knew their actions
were being recorded, and they still murdered Terence.<br /><br />
It’s going to take revolution to end this horror once and for
all. We have to get rid of the system that needs to have its front line
enforcers out there enforcing terror on people that it has no future
for. No future except engaging in some hustle to try to survive,
incarceration, fighting and killing each other or being murdered by the
cops. We should live in a world where those entrusted with public
security would sooner lose their own lives than kill or injure an
innocent person. It’ll take revolution, nothing less, to bring that kind
of world into being.<br />

And we in the RCP are organizing for an actual revolution right
now. In Bob Avakian (BA) we have a leader who knows how to make
revolution and has developed a vision of the kind of world we could
create thru making revolution. If you want to see this and all the other
horrors this system enforces on people around the world and in this
country ended once and for all, you need to become part of this
revolution.<br /><br />

countries and force people to flee their homelands? America is not now
and never was great! Kaepernick took a heroic stand when he said he
wasn’t going to show pride in this country while the bodies of Black
people killed by police pile up in the streets.<br />
<br />
<b>What about you?</b><br />
<br />
Kaepernick put a lot on the line in making this stand. Sports figures
who have refused to go along with enforced patriotism and worship of
America in the past have paid a heavy toll. Muhammad Ali was stripped
of his heavyweight boxing championship when he refused induction into
the U.S. army because he saw that the real enemy of Black people was in
this country, not the poor people in Vietnam fighting to free their
country. For taking this stand, they stripped him of his heavyweight
boxing championship, which cost him millions of dollars he could have
earned. Even knowing this, Kaepernick said, “If they take football
away, my endorsements from me, I know that I stood up for what is
right.”<br />
<br />
<div class="image-lightbluebkgrd floatright width350">
</div>
Kaepernick is putting a whole lot on the line, and he’s doing the right thing! We must ALL have his back.<br />
<br />
The killing will not stop just because people tweet about it, or
because they grumble about it when yet another video of a modern-day
lynching by police hits the news. People have to put themselves on the
line. Even when the risk is great. I learned this 46 years ago when I
refused to go to Vietnam and kill for this country. I was sentenced to
two years in military prison for this, but I kept my humanity—and
helped stop a genocidal war.<br />
<br />
Colin Kaepernick saw the video of the police murder of Alton
Sterling. In response, he said: “This is what lynchings look like in
2016! Another murder in the streets because the color of a man’s skin,
at the hands of the people who they say will protect us. When will they
be held accountable?” And he took a bold stand to stop this from
happening again and again. You have seen the videos of police gunning
people down, beating them to death, tasing and choking them to death.
What are YOU going to do? What are YOU going to put on the line to stop
this genocide?<br />

Carl Dix Responds to Milwaukee Police Chief Flynn over Police Murder</h1>
<div align="left" style="color: black; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1.3em; margin-left: 0; margin-right: 0; margin-top: 0; padding-bottom: 0; padding-left: 0; padding-right: 0; padding-top: 0; text-align: left; unicode-bidi: embed; vertical-align: baseline;">
Milwaukee Police Chief Flynn has <a href="http://sable.madmimi.com/click?id=9958.131617.6466.1.33c2b5bfae0212102577ebb69956387c" style="color: darkblue; text-decoration: none; word-break: break-word;" target="_blank">blamed people associated with the Revolutionary Communist Party (RCP) for violence against police Sunday night</a>.
No, pig chief Flynn – people in Milwaukee rose in rebellion after a cop
killed Sylville Smith because they were enraged at the harassment,
brutality and even murder inflicted on Black people there. And they are
right to stand up and say NO MORE to this state sponsored violence.</div>
<div align="left" style="color: black; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1.3em; margin-left: 0; margin-right: 0; margin-top: 0; padding-bottom: 0; padding-left: 0; padding-right: 0; padding-top: 0; text-align: left; unicode-bidi: embed; vertical-align: baseline;">
We
in the RCP stand with the people who are fighting the power today to
STOP the terror police inflict on Black people, and we work to transform
the people for revolution, which is what's needed to end this and all
the other horrors this system enforces on people in this country and
around the world.</div>

Pig
Chief Flynn also tells us that the cop who killed Sylville Smith acted
“within lawful bounds.” This system has also told us that the cop who
murdered Dontre Hamilton acted within “lawful bounds;” that the cop who
murdered Tamir Rice in Cleveland acted within “lawful bounds;” that the
cops who murdered Freddie Gray in Baltimore acted within “lawful
bounds;” and I could go on and on listing murdering cops who have been
exonerated by this system.</div>

A system that gives its stamp of approval to wanton police terror is
absolutely illegitimate. It's been around too long and needs to be
gotten rid of through revolution. In a revolutionary society, as Bob
Avakian, the leader of the RCP, has said, “...[W]e would sooner have one
of our own people’s police killed than go wantonly murder one of the
masses.” </div>

Milwaukee Explodes in Righteous Rebellion as <br />Police Kill Again!</h3>

Saturday night people in Milwaukee poured into the streets in
rebellion after police gunned down another Black man. The authorities
wasted no time in demonizing the person gunned down, 23-year-old
Sylville Smith—saying that he was armed and had a lengthy criminal
record—trying to justify the murderous actions of their cops. But still
people took to the streets, in the face of cops flooding the
neighborhood armed to the teeth and even shooting at people to try to
force them to disperse. People have righteously defended themselves in
the face of this savage pig violence.<br />
<br />
This rebellion is right on time. Despite police wearing body
cameras, despite Department of Justice reports that expose the racism
and abuse in police departments across the country, despite commission
meetings and talk of reforms, police continue to kill people again and
again. And the whole system continues to exonerate the killer cops when
their murderous deeds get dragged into the light of day. People in
Milwaukee have refused to accept this state-sponsored murder in
silence, and they are right to do so. And everyone who stands for
justice must have their backs. <br />
<br />
This spirit must be built on and spread. In order to end the
horror of police getting away with murder, it has to become part of an
actual revolution; one that overthrows this system, defeating and
dismantling its institutions of violent suppression, and brings into
being a totally different and far better system. We need to live in a
world where those responsible for public security would sooner lose
their own lives than kill or injure an innocent person. It'll take a
revolution to bring that kind of world into being. <br />
<br />
The Revolutionary Communist Party is organizing right now for
that actual revolution. The Party is preparing the ground—influencing
people and society as a whole toward revolution and toward fighting the
outrages of society… the Party is preparing the people—raising people's
sights to the different world that is possible and the leadership we
have in Bob Avakian and the Party he leads to realize that world… and
preparing the vanguard—getting ready for the time when millions can be
led to go for revolution, all-out, with a real chance to win. <br />
<br />
If you hate seeing police murder Black people and others
again and again, if you want to see a world where this horror is no
more, get with the RCP and the ACTUAL revolution it is organizing! Go

<span style="font-family: "arial";"><br />The system's mouthpieces are urging that people remain calm and wait for
the results of the investigation. The hell with that. We know what happened. We
can see what happened and what's in the works. Police have murdered another
Black man, and the system is going to work to exonerate the killer cops. We've
seen it time and time again – Eric Garner, Michael Brown, Tamir Rice, Rekia

<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "arial";"><br />It's part of centuries of savage oppression this system has inflicted on

developed the understanding and strategic approach for making this revolution.

<h4>
Judge Finds Baltimore Cop Found “Not Guilty” of Killing Freddie Gray<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span> </h4>
<h2 style="text-align: center;">
A Modern Day Dred Scott Decision for a Modern Day Lynching<br /></h2>
The judge’s not guilty verdict on all charges in the case of
officer Goodson comes down to the authorities sending a message that their
police can do any damn thing that they want, especially to Black people, and
they won’t be punished for it.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It is a
modern-day Dred Scott Decision, conveying that Black people have no rights that
this system’s police are bound to respect, issued after the modern-day lynching
of Freddie Gray.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"></span><br />
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"></span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Freddie was perfectly healthy when he encountered those
police.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>But after they chased him, beat
him down, tortured and arrested him for nothing, threw him in the van bent up
like a pretzel and screaming in pain, and then rode him around the city for 45
minutes when it would have taken only 2 minutes to get him to the police
station, Freddie had suffered a fatal injury.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Now the courts are finding the cops “not guilty” on the installment
plan, one by one.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Bob Avakian has said the role of the police is not to
protect and serve the people, but to protect and serve the system that rules
over the people. And I challenge anyone to tell me why that statement doesn’t
capture the reality, the reality of a system that has ruled again and again in
cases where police have brutalized and murdered people that the police have
committed to crime.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
What <i>is</i> criminal is this system, and its whole
justice system.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It needs to be gotten
rid of through revolution, nothing less.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>That’s what it’s going to take to stop the horror of police getting away
with murder, and all the other horrors this system brings down. We in the
Revolutionary Communist Party are <a href="http://revcom.us/a/439/time-to-get-organized-for-an-actual-revolution-en.html">organizing
right now for an actual revolution</a> at the soonest possible time.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Anybody who hates the horror of seeing
police getting away with murder again and again needs to get with this
revolution and get with this leader Bob Avakian (BA).</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
And everyone needs to look at this exoneration of another
killer cop, and answer the question: “which side are you on?” Are you on the
side of saying it’s all right for the system to give police license to instill
terror, that it’s alright for the police to get away with brutalizing and
murdering people, especially in Black and Latino communities?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Or are you on the side that sees this is
unjust and illegitimate?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>If you’re on
that side, you can’t just say you’re on that side, you’ve got to act like
you’re on that side, and you’ve got to join the fight to stop it.</div>

<strong>Carl Dix in Baltimore: “Take to the Streets
if Police Officer Goodson is Let Off, or Given a Slap on the Wrist in
Death of Freddie Gray”</strong></div>
<br />
What: #JusticeforFreddieGray rally<br /> When: 10:00 am Thursday June
23<br /> Where: 100 Calvert Street @ Lexington Street, Baltimore MD<br />
<br />
Carl Dix of the Revolutionary Communist Party, in Baltimore today,
called for “powerful outpourings of protest, in Baltimore and all
across the country,” if Caesar Goodson, the Baltimore police officer
charged with murder in the death of Freddie Gray last year, is not
found guilty by the judge Thursday.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.stoppoliceterror.org/r?u=http%3A%2F%2Frevcom.us%2Fa%2F445%2Fbe-in-the-streets-to-demand-justice-for-freddie-gray-en.html&e=f927f170cc87932322f9a443bd4df425&utm_source=riseupoctober&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=6_22_freddie_gr&n=2">Dix
said Monday’s closing arguments</a> in the trial of Goodson, the cop
prosecutors originally charged with giving the “rough ride” to Freddie
Gray, “amounted to more grease on the skids that would lead to letting
this killer cop slide out of court free, or at most end up with a slap
on the wrist for conviction on a minor charge.”<br />
<br />
Dix warned, “This amounts to the system declaring that its police
can brutalize and murder Black people and get off without any
punishment; that Black people have no rights that the police are bound
to respect.”<strong> </strong><br />
<br />
He joined others speaking out to stop murder by police, called on
people to gather at the court: <strong><br /></strong><br />

co-founder of the Stop Mass Incarceration Network with Dr. Cornel

<span style="box-sizing: border-box;">As court let out on Monday, June 13, 20 people held a press conference and speak-out at the Baltimore courthouse where Caesar Goodson—the cop who subjected Freddie Gray to a “rough ride” over a year ago—is on trial for murder. Goodson’s trial is the third of police involved in the murder of Freddie Gray. The first two trials ended without convictions. This event was a statement from people who will not let the IN-justice system cover up the truth or let the murdering police go free on the installment plan.</span></div>

<div style="font-size: 12.8px; margin-bottom: 0in;">
Carl Dix of the Revolutionary Communist Party said today:</div>
<div style="font-size: 12.8px; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-size: 12.8px; margin-bottom: 0in;">
"Baltimore police murdered Freddie Gray OVER A YEAR AGO. They came up on him for no reason and assaulted him. They bent him like a pretzel, to the point where his screams of pain were heard a block away. Then police threw Freddie Gray in a van and subjected him to the “rough ride” that has terrorized and tortured so many Black people in Baltimore. By the time they were through with him, Freddie Gray was near dead. He died a week later. <i>Together</i>, these police murdered Freddie Gray. They are ALL murderers and accessories to murder. Police saw him not as a human being but a Black man who they were licensed to torture and kill. This was a modern day lynching.</div>
<div style="font-size: 12.8px; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-size: 12.8px; margin-bottom: 0in;">
Over and over police in America kill Black and Brown people with impunity. What was different this time is that the youth of Baltimore rose up. Their uprising was followed by days of outrage and protest by people from all walks of life – especially students. The uprising and the aftermath forced the hand of the powers-that-be to bring charges against six police who murdered Freddie Gray.</div>
<div style="font-size: 12.8px; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-size: 12.8px; margin-bottom: 0in;">
But ever since, the wheels of injustice have worked to cover up what really happened, deny justice, and let the murdering police go free. They are letting the murderers walk on the installment plan. And media coverage has worked 24-7 to focus people’s attention on anything but the real issue: JUSTICE for Freddie Gray.</div>
<div style="font-size: 12.8px; margin-bottom: 0in;">
The first trial of the police who killed Freddie Gray ended in a mistrial. The second ended in an acquittal. Right now Goodson, the cop accused of ignoring Freddie Gray’s desperate demand for medical help, throwing him in the back of a police van, and subjecting him to a rough ride – at the end of which Freddie Gray was near death – is on trial for murder. This trial CANNOT be another whitewash. It CANNOT be another mockery of justice. What is needed to change things is for PEOPLE to take things into our own hands. We are making clear: there MUST be justice in this case. We are not asking, we are demanding:</div>
<div style="font-size: 12.8px; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-size: 12.8px; margin-bottom: 0in;">
Justice for Freddie Gray!</div>
<div style="font-size: 12.8px; margin-bottom: 0in;">
Convict the killer police and send them to jail!</div>
<div style="font-size: 12.8px; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-size: 12.8px; margin-bottom: 0in;">
The days when police can kill with impunity must be gone, and they can be gone.</div>
<div style="font-size: 12.8px; margin-bottom: 0in;">

admiration for Muhammad Ali and profess to embrace his legacy. I have a serious
question and challenge to put to them, and especially the prominent Black
people among them: Are you ready to stand and act for principle as he did? Muhammad
Ali put himself on the line to stand up against the oppression this system was
bringing down on Black people. When the powers that be told him he had to join
their army and be part of the military machine being unleashed to drown the
liberation struggle of the Vietnamese people in blood, Ali responded in bold
and clear terms:<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="background: #F0F5F8; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="background: rgb(240, 245, 248); margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif;">“No, I am not going ten
thousand miles from home to help murder and burn another poor nation simply to
continue the domination of white slave masters of the darker people the world
over. This is the day when such evils must come to an end. I have been warned
that to take such a stand would put my prestige in jeopardy and could cause me
to lose millions of dollars which should accrue to me as the champion. But I
have said it once and I will say it again. The real enemy of my people is right
here.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="background: rgb(240, 245, 248); margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div style="background: #F0F5F8; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif;">This stand cost him the
heavyweight boxing championship of the world and millions of dollars. And it
put him at risk of being jailed for years, but he stood firm and refused to
back down. This is what was most inspiring about Muhammad Ali: his willingness
to put it all on the line to oppose terrible wrongs.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="background: rgb(240, 245, 248); margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div style="background: #F0F5F8; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif;">Today, the same system
continues to inflict savage oppression: horrific numbers of particularly Black
and Latino people, including many youth<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><em><span style="font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif";">and even young children,</span></em><span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>brutalized and murdered by vicious
police. How many videos must you see of people gunned down or beaten, tased or
choked to death by the police, responding only with weak sympathy for the
victims, and begging the system for justice someday? How long will you stand
aside while the system backs up their killer cops again and again, seldom
putting any of them on trial—and in the few cases where cops have been tried,
virtually never convicting any of them, or at most giving them a slap on the
wrist? “Justifiable homicide”? No. Ali said then, and we must say now: “<strong><span style="font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif";">This is the day when such evils must
come to an end.”</span></strong><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="background: rgb(240, 245, 248); margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div style="background: #F0F5F8; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif;">Ali, in a short poem,
said: "Me, Whee!" With props to his exuberance, I am going to take a
liberty with his rhyme to say: Yes: You, me,<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><em><span style="font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif";">WE know</span></em><span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>this horrific police brutality and
murder is still going down. Are you/are we going to stand up and say
unequivocally that these and other horrors perpetrated by this system must
stop?<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><strong><span style="font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif";">ARE YOU/ARE WE GOING TO PUT IT ON THE
LINE TO FIGHT TO STOP THESE CRIMES AGAINST THE PEOPLE?</span></strong><span class="apple-converted-space"><b> </b></span>I’ve been doing this for a long

<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: rgb(240, 245, 248); margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">A Baltimore judge has
declared a mistrial in the case of William Porter, the first cop brought to
trial for the murder of Freddie Gray. Another cop involved in the death of a
Black man at the hands of the police has walked free. This happens all the
damned time. It is unacceptable and illegitimate. It is not justice, and it has
to STOP!<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: rgb(240, 245, 248); margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">

<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">We should live in a
society where those entrusted with public security would sooner lose their own
lives than kill or injure an innocent person. It'll take revolution, nothing
less, to bring that kind of society into being. This kind of revolution is
possible. Bob Avakian, the leader of the Revolutionary Communist Party (RCP), has
spent decades developing a new synthesis of communism that points to how we
could get rid of the system responsible for the savage oppression of Black
people, and all the other horrors enforced on humanity—the attacks on
immigrants, the subjugation of women, the wars for empire, and the destruction
of the planet we live on—once and for all. And points to how we could bring
into being the kind of world people would want to live in. If you want to see
that better world, you need to dig into the work of Bob Avakian.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: rgb(240, 245, 248); margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: rgb(240, 245, 248); margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">And if you have an ounce
of justice in your heart, you need to join the fight to STOP police getting
away with murder. This starts with insisting that Porter be retried. And for
all the killer cops—the six who murdered Freddie Gray, the Chicago cops who
murdered Laquan McDonald, the Seattle cops who murdered Chris Harris, the San
Francisco cops who murdered Mario Woods, the Virginia jail guards who murdered
Natasha McKenna, and ALL the rest—to be indicted, convicted and sent to jail.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: rgb(240, 245, 248); margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: rgb(240, 245, 248); margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">Look at what the six
cops did to Freddie Gray that night. Several chased him down like a runaway
slave because he ran when he saw them. They beat him down so bad that one
witness said he was “bent up like a pretzel” when the cops put him in the van.
The van was a few minutes from the police station, yet these cops, joined by
several other cops, drove Gray around for 45 minutes, stopping six times. Pigs
in Baltimore call this giving them the “rough ride,” making fast starts and
stops. This form of summary punishment has been documented to have
killed—murdered—people in police custody. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: rgb(240, 245, 248); margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: rgb(240, 245, 248); margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">By the time the van had
stopped the sixth time, Gray's spine was severed, and he was paralyzed. A week
later he died. The <i>Baltimore Sun </i>described Porter’s so-called
defense: "Prosecutors argued that Baltimore Police Department rules
clearly require officers to seat-belt arrestees. Porter's lawyers argued that
police rarely seat-belted prisoners..." And this was enough to get him a
mistrial.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: rgb(240, 245, 248); margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: rgb(240, 245, 248); margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">This is another example
of the whole system going into motion to exonerate cops in the rare cases when
their murderous deeds are so outrageous—and the people find it intolerable and
go out into the streets, as they did in Baltimore—that the system is compelled
to indict one of its front-line enforcers. Imagine what would happen if a group
of Black youth had been involved in the death of a cop, and some of them tried
to blame it on the others. The system would throw all of them in jail.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: rgb(240, 245, 248); margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: rgb(240, 245, 248); margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">Killer cops belong in
cell blocks, and we can't rely on the system to get them put there. It'll take
mass determined resistance to the ways police get away with murder to get
justice for Freddie Gray, and all the victims of murder by police. Get with the
Stop Mass Incarceration Network and become part of that resistance. And get
with the movement for revolution that the RCP is building if you want to end
the horrors this system inflicts on humanity.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">It is outrageous and unconscionable that media and the head of NY PBA have lied and distorted reality to condemn the Rise Up October (<a href="http://riseupoctober.org/">RiseUpOctober.org</a>) protests in NY on Oct 22-24, of thousands of people, including scores of families whose lives have been stolen by police from across the country, using the fact that a NY police officer was killed last week. Distorting reality and attacking the </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">people fighting for justice they assert "there is a war on police," that "people must support the police all the time and on every corner," and say that people should stop protesting the rampant, ongoing, systematic murder carried out BY the police. This is wrong and upside down.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Let’s talk about the reality: Tamir Rice, Eric Garner, Natasha McKenna, Andy Lopez, Walter Scott and many more people have had their lives stolen by those who are sworn to protect and serve. In almost every case, the system has exonerated the killer cops and the media has criminalized their victims, aiding and abetting the justification of these murders. This must STOP! Not be incrementally reduced, but STOPPED! And it will take determined mass resistance and protest to stop it.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br />
Pat Lynch, loudmouth bigot and head of the Patrolman's Brutality Association, has called for a boycott of the films of Quentin Tarantino for his support of people fighting for justice. Tarantino was right to join us and everyone needs to pick a side: are you for or against police terror and murder? Lynch said a year ago that Eric Garner “died from a number of bad life choices.” What life choices led to Garner's being choked to death at the hands of the NYPD? Being born Black in a country where police patrol Black neighborhoods like an occupying army?</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br />
I challenge Pat Lynch and anyone else to a debate over what's the real problem: our protest of murder by police or police getting away with murder.</span></div>

<b style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Rise Up October (RiseUpOctober.org)</b><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"> – three days of protest and resistance to Stop Police Terror. October 22: almost 40 families of victims of police murder from NY and across the country joined with prominent voices of conscience in Times Square to say the names and tell the stories of loved ones lost to police violence and demand justice. October 23: 16 people were arrested, including Carl Dix, for non-violent direct action with the demand: Shut Down Riker's! They shut down all traffic coming into and out of Riker's Island, the torture chamber they were calling Guantanamo on the Hudson, for over an hour. October 24: 4,000 to 5,000 marched through the streets including almost 100 families of victims of police murder alongside clergy, students, immigrants and more. Prominent voices in attendance included co-initiators Cornel West and Carl Dix, Quentin Tarantino, Eve Ensler, Michael Rappaport and more.</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"></span><br />

<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Rise Up October revealed a tremendous story of a movement being born against police terror that recognizes there will be no progress without struggle, without resistance and protest. These three days were filled with deep substance: the stories from the families of those killed by police murder of their loved ones and how they were murdered and then criminalized by the media after, from voices of conscience standing up themselves, from clergy, students and revolutionaries all joining in together to say Police Terror Must Stop and drawing a line for all of society: Which Side Are You On?</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">"Let’s do all that we can to stop the horror of police murdering our people. And then let’s do even more because we gotta stop this."</span></h3>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://revcom.us/i/410/ss1024/images/LO-RUO_10-24-15_DSC_9429-600.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://revcom.us/i/410/ss1024/images/LO-RUO_10-24-15_DSC_9429-600.jpg" /></a></div>
<b style="font-size: x-large;"><br /></b>
<span style="font-size: large;"><i>The following is a rush transcript.</i></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Okay, Okay. You have seen the faces of the lives that have been stolen by the police. Beautiful lives that were cut down too short. This is unacceptable and our demand is very simple: police terror, police murder must stop. Not be reduced a little bit. Must stop!</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Now sometimes people say well, your demand needs to be more concrete than that, Carl. So let me give you a concrete demand:</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Indict, convict, send those killer cops to jail. The whole damn system is guilty as hell! </span><span style="font-size: large;">[chanting with crowd:]</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Indict, convict, send those killer cops to jail. The whole damn system is guilty as hell! </span><span style="font-size: large;">One more time.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Indict, convict, send those killer cops to jail. The whole damn system is guilty as hell!</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Now look, that’s a simple and just demand. But we need to be very clear that when we raise that demand we gotta fight for it. Because there is a whole system that’s behind those killer cops. It ain’t just a few killer cops on the beat with some rogue DAs, or corrupt DAs, district attorneys. It’s a whole system all the way up to the top, that arrested people en masse when we protested these killings over this last year, that demonizes our people, especially the young people to try to justify these murders.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Now when I say that, some people might be thinking, well wait a minute Carl, didn’t Obama say he was going to do something about this a couple of days ago? Didn’t he say that he supports Black Lives Matter? Well, let’s be clear. The Obama who said something about Black Lives Matter six months ago said that the youth of Baltimore were thugs and criminals when they rose up in response to the police murder of Freddie Grey. So let’s not get twisted by that. He’s trying to rope us back in. He also said along with saying I’m gonna do something, it has to be incremental. Now what does that mean? It’s gotta be small, slow steps to change things. That ain’t going to cut it. This has got to stop. We don’t want no small reduction of the people they warehouse in prison or the people that they kill. We want it stopped.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">And look, we are going to fight to make that happen. Ain’t nobody going to do it for us. And we are doing that today. We’ve been doing that this week. Thursday, No More Stolen Lives/Say Their Name. Thursday afternoon, march and rally for the National Day of Protest to Stop Police Brutality. Yesterday, some of us put our bodies on the line to pose the demand, Shut Down Rikers Island —that debtors’ prison and torture chamber. And that’s what we’re doing to do today and we’re going to keep doing that.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">And we are delivering a very serious message: Stop police terror, which side are you on? Because don’t tell me no BS about “I’m in the middle” or “I’m neutral.” This is murder, this is genocide we’re dealing with. And in the face of a genocide there ain’t no neutrality. You’re either on the side of acting to stop that genocide or you’re on the side that says it’s ok for it to happen. That’s the two sides. Which side are you on? That’s the challenge we’re bringing to people.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">And look, I can give you the numbers of how many people the police kill, more than 930 since January first. But this ain’t about numbers for me. This is personal. Look I sat with Mertilla Jones a few days after her granddaughter, Aiyana Stanley-Jones, had been murdered by the Detroit police. I met Sharon Irwin a couple of days after her grandson, Tony Robinson, had been murdered by the police. I’ve worked with many more families, many more than I can talk about now. I have to say, my wife’s brother more than 40 years ago was gunned down by the police on his mother’s doorstep, one day after they had told her she would never see her son alive again. So this is personal for me. And it is up to us to stop this. We have to take that on.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">And when I say stop this, it’s not just the horror of what the police is doing to Black and Latino people although we gotta stop that. It’s also the attacks on women in this society; it’s the attacks on our immigrant sisters and brothers; it’s what happens to lesbian, gay bisexual and transgender people; it’s the wars for empire; it’s the way they are destroying the environment of the planet. And I will tell you it’s going to take revolution, nothing less to end all those horrors once and for al. That’s what it’s going to take.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Now, some people tell me I shouldn’t talk about this. But I gotta talk about it because it’s what you need to hear. Fred Hampton, a brother that I really respected 40 years ago, said something that I’m going to repeat right now. He said: “I am a revolutionary.”</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">And I feel like some of y’all feel like that way too. So say it with me: I am a revolutionary. [with the crowd:] I am a revolutionary.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">And look, I’m not just a revolutionary. I’m a revolutionary communist. I follow a man, Bob </span><span style="font-size: large;">Avakian, who’s got a strategy for making revolution and a blueprint for bringing a new society into being. You need to check him out if you want to be free.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">But look, all of us gotta be in this together. Cornel West, who you will hear shortly, is a Christian, a revolutionary Christian. I’m here with the clergy. I’m here with the students, I’m here with the people from the community. I’m here with the victims of police murder. We all have to be in this together. Our diversity, our different voices make us stronger.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Now let me say this. Fred Douglass said this a while ago, more than 100 years ago. I’m not quite old enough to go back to then, but I know what he said. He said power concedes nothing without a demand. That was true then and it’s true now. It’s gonna take struggle to bring about a change for the better. And that is what we’re doing sisters and brothers. But we gotta keep doing it. And we should not pat ourselves on the back for having been out here today and say we did a good job and feel good about ourselves. That ain’t it. We gotta be in this for the long haul. It says stop police terror, and that’s how long we gotta be in it.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">There’s some next steps. Travis talked about it. November 22—Tamir Rice, one year ago murdered and no justice. We have to act on that. December 3, Eric Garner—one year ago they let those murdering cops go free. We gotta act on that. We gotta keep acting and not stop acting until this is stopped.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Now I’m gonna close with this. But I’ve been doing this for a long time. I am tired of putting together lists of victims killed by the police. I am tired of putting pictures on posters of people murdered by the police. I am tired of making hashtags for the victims. This has got to stop. I got an 8-year-old granddaughter. I do not want her generation to come up to be talking about what are we gonna do about the police killing our people. I want her generation to talk about this as history that really is history ’cause it don’t happen no more. Not the way that we have to talk about Emmett Till as history that echoes and reverberates today.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">So let’s do all that we can to stop the horror of police murdering our people. And then let’s do even more because we gotta stop this. We gotta do it for ourselves. We gotta do it for our children. We gotta do it for future generations. Stop Police Terror! Which side are you on?</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">We know what side we’re on. We’re challenging the world and the whole country: Which side are you on?</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Thank you sisters and brothers.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>

<br />from Carl Dix<br />
<br /><strong>April 14: People stood up. Defiant. With the joy of fighting for justice and for the humanity of Black and Latino people. </strong><br /><br /><strong>April
14 announced to the whole country that the beautiful movement that
began in Ferguson and spread through the fall to stop the killing and
the utter disregard for Black and Latino lives <em>is back.</em> </strong><br /><br />Thousands of people took to the the streets in more than 30 cities across the country – to STOP BUSINESS AS USUAL BECAUSE <strong>BUSINESS AS USUAL IN AMERICA MEANS POLICE GETTING AWAY WITH MURDERING BLACK AND LATINO PEOPLE.</strong>
The streets were alive with righteous youth saying they won't live this
way. #ShutdownA14 was kicked off nationally by Cornel West, myself, and
the Stop Mass Incarceration Network. They were joined in NYC by Rev.
Dr. Calvin Butts and the United Clergy Caucus, Eve Ensler, and Arturo
O'Farrill – who brought a moral support to the day.<br /><br />In NY – 1500
people took to the streets and stopped traffic on the Brooklyn Bridge.
1000 marched in Los Angeles. City Hall in San Francisco was filled
with protesters. From Springfield, Mass, to Gainesville, Florida people
stood up.<br /><br />The police and the powers that be, struck back. In
NYC with viciousness – with 2 protesters sent to the hospital after
hours delay. Over 30 arrested. In LA over 20 arrested with threats of
serious charges.<br /><br /><strong>This is unacceptable! The police
brutalize and murder people every day – every day – with impunity. Then,
when people take to the streets to declare to the world this must stop,
they lash out to brutalize and arrest people who protest these horrors</strong>. And, in NY the mayor and media spread outrageous lies about the protest.<br /><br /><strong>This cannot and will not be allowed to go down</strong>.
In New York the Stop Mass Incarceration Network has called for a
demonstration at City Hall on Thursday, 4/16/15 at 4:00 pm to condemn
these vicious attacks.<br /><br />If you were in the streets on April 14,
build for this demonstration and be in the house for the Emergency
meeting. And if you didn't make it out into the streets on the 14th, get
involved now, join this movement of resistance.<br /><br />April 14 marked
a new beginning. After a winter of murder after murder, video upon
video, passivity has been cracked. A door opened to a new wave of
defiant resistance to say that this murder of Black and Latino people
must STOP. NOW. Join Us.Carl Dixhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11741044651832315638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9420023.post-54599008862662091372015-04-09T19:08:00.001-07:002015-04-09T19:08:27.849-07:00#ShutDownA14 What Are YOU Going to Do?

murder of Walter Scott in South Carolina, shot down by a cop the way
a slave chaser would gun down a rebellious slave, on top of
everything else that has happened in the past few months, calls out
to us – <b>What are you going to do now</b>?</span></span></div>

Latino people. <b>What will you do on this day</b>?</span></span></div>
