This includes sharp analysis on what we're facing with Trump MAGA fascism, the roots of this in this system and how it's possible to drive this regime from power through mass sustained, non-violent protest.
This far-sighted book—published in 1999—includes a scathing refutation of the reality behind conservative Christian fascist morality, a critical look at the limitations of “liberation theology,” including a discussion of Jim Wallis’s book, The Soul of Politics, and an inspiring look at morality from a revolutionary perspective.

On The Constitution for the New Socialist Republic in North America, by Bob Avakian
It is a fact that, nowhere else, in any actual or proposed founding or guiding document of any government, is there anything like not only the protection but the provision for dissent and intellectual and cultural ferment that is embodied in this Constitution, while this has, as its solid core, a grounding in the socialist transformation of the economy, with the goal of abolishing all exploitation, and the corresponding transformation of the social relations and political institutions, to uproot all oppression, and the promotion, through the educational system and in society as a whole, of an approach that will “enable people to pursue the truth wherever it leads, with a spirit of critical thinking and scientific curiosity, and in this way to continually learn about the world and be better able to contribute to changing it in accordance with the fundamental interests of humanity.”
