UCLA screening and panel discussion of "The Trump/Pence Regime Must Go" - May 24

Received from Refuse Fascism - SoCal:
 
 
 

Friends,

Just this week, 60 Palestinians were killed in Gaza and 2,700 injured as protests broke out over the US relocating its Embassy to Jerusalem – making it the deadliest day there since 2014. A Republican Georgia state senator running for governor announced the start of his “Deportation Bus Tour” on Tuesday, which he said will consist of rounding up illegal immigrants in a bus labeled “Murderers, rapists, kidnappers, child molesters, and other criminals on board." Donald Trump had a round table with other California "leaders" where he blatantly called immigrants "animals" saying "These aren't people, they are animals" further unleashing rabid fascists to not hold back when going after immigrants! Aaron M. Schlossberg from NY went on a racist rant against immigrants foaming at the mouth, telling some Latina workers to "speak English" and claiming he would call ICE on them!

WILL WE ACCEPT IT? OR, WILL WE UNITE – COMING FROM MANY DIFFERENT BACKGROUNDS AND POINTS OF VIEW – TO STOP THIS THROUGH MASSIVE NON-VIOLENT PROTEST THAT DOESN’T STOP UNTIL THIS ILLEGITIMATE, ILLEGAL and IMMORAL FASCIST REGIME IS REMOVED FROM POWER?

We Must NOT accept or normalize, this cruel & brutal future of the Trump/Pence FASCIST Regime! They must be driven from power!

Here are 2 very important events coming up: 

Thursday, May 24th 7:00 pm (Haines Hall 220 375 Portola Plaza, UCLA)
Film Screening and Panel -- A Film of a talk by Bob Avakian "The Trump/Pence Regime Must Go! In The Name of Humanity, We Refuse to Accept a Fascist America! A Better World IS Possible"

The screening of this hour-long talk from Bob Avakian will be followed by a panel discussion with:
Andy Zee , spokesperson for Revolution Books, NYC, co-initiator of Refuse Fascism.org
Juan Gomez Quinones, Professor of History, UCLA
and others to be announced.

This talk from Bob Avakian (BA) provides a scientific understanding of the roots of this fascist regime—in the history of the U.S. and the deeper roots in the system of capitalism-imperialism. He does so with passion, humor, humanity, and a deep sense of history. He cuts into the deepest, most agonizing questions, first in the speech and then in wide-ranging Questions and Answers.

If more people watched this talk, it could change today’s political equation. But far too few have seen this talk, or even know about it.
You are needed to be part of changing this.

From organizers in Refuse Fascism OC

May 20 at 12:30: March in Anaheim, Brookhurst and Orange, 12:30
Stand with our brave Palestinian brothers and sisters on the 70 th
anniversary of Nakba; Reject Trump’s embassy move to Jerusalem!

No matter what our nationality, religion or preferred political future may be, we must take a stand in the name of humanity to denounce the recent murders of dozens unarmed protestors and the maiming of thousands by Israel, acting as a trained attack dog for US and Western imperialism in the Middle East.

We must reject Trump’s provocative and unethical move of the US embassy to Jerusalem, long claimed as the capital of a sovereign Palestinian state, a move grotesquely celebrated by Pence’s Christian fascist evangelical movement, which played a starring role in the embassy inauguration, as a welcome step toward the “end times”.

RefuseFascism.org recently posted this call: The carnage in Palestine
makes the mission of RefuseFascism.org more urgent than ever.
So where is the outrage? No good can come from U.S. intervention in
the Middle East. The drums beating for more war are very loud. And
there is a crying need for there to be a strong counter to this,
representing people in the United States who refuse the cruel and
horrible actions of their government.

Join Refuse Fascism OC contingent this coming Sunday. Spread the word to your friends, congregations, and communities.
