From Brother B In The Streets, Educator, California
Bob Avakian a “cult” leader. I’ve heard this kind of talk for a long time, and each time it comes up what do these forces who spread this accusation reveal about themselves: no engagement… absolutely no serious engagement with anything Bob Avakian has written.

I also was the first gay person to be allowed to speak at a left rally, it was at Yale in support of Bobby Seale. Although we were put on last, it was the first time that an openly gay […]

Carol Downer, Executive Director of the Feminist Women’s Health Centers and Life-Long Fierce Advocate for Reproductive Rights
Original posted at RiseUp4AbortionRights.org WITNESS To: 23 grassroots pro-abortion organizers who denounce Rise Up 4 Abortion Rights. I am making this statement as an individual.

Before you seek to defame and cast out Rise Up 4 Abortion Rights on serious (but unproven) charges of being a cult and a […]
