From the Prisoners Revolutionary Literature Fund:

A Shout-out and Thank You to All Prisoner Subscribers and Correspondents

Your many contributions this year have made a major difference. Many of your letters appear on the PRLF website, Youtube.com/PRLFvideos, and PRLF emails, and have traveled from conferences to classrooms. Your correspondence has opened up and enriched debate in the pages of Revolution about newsworthy events, about the Constitution for the New Socialist Republic in North America (Draft Proposal), BAsics and much more. You have spoken directly to the youth in the 'hood, college students, the Occupy movement, etc., probably even more than you know. In addition to the letters you see in the print version of Revolution, many more have been printed online. A heartfelt thanks from everyone you have challenged and inspired!

NOTE: If you have not yet received a copy of BAsics, please write to request your copy. Also tell your friends who want a copy they should write to: PRLF, 1321 N. Milwaukee, #407, Chicago, IL 60622.

"What we see in contention here with Jihad on the one hand and McWorld/McCrusade on the other hand, are historically outmoded strata among colonized and oppressed humanity up against historically outmoded ruling strata of the imperialist system. These two reactionary poles reinforce each other, even while opposing each other. If you side with either of these 'outmodeds,' you end up strengthening both. "While this is a very important formulation and is crucial to understanding much of the dynamics driving things in the world in this period, at the same time we do have to be clear about which of these 'historically outmodeds' has done the greater damage and poses the greater threat to humanity: It is the historically outmoded ruling strata of the imperialist system, and in particular the U.S. imperialists." Bob Avakian, BAsics 1:28

"In a world marked by profound class divisions and social inequality, to talk about 'democracy'— without talking about the class nature of that democracy and which class it serves—is meaningless, and worse. So long as society is divided into classes, there can be no 'democracy for all': one class or another will rule, and it will uphold and promote that kind of democracy which serves its interests and goals. The question is: which class will rule and whether its rule, and its system of democracy, will serve the continuation, or the eventual abolition, of class divisions and the corresponding relations of exploitation, oppression and inequality."

Bob Avakian, BAsics 1:22
