Flyers for June 14 Protests
Across the country, “No Kings” protests against the Trump administration converge with anti-ICE demonstrations. The “No Kings” protests are largely organized by the Democratic Party and its affiliated front groups. Their aim is not liberation, but redirecting mass anger into the channels of reform and electoralism.
It’s the same tired cycle: Republicans ignite indignation, and Democrats move in to smother it with promises and crumbs. Meanwhile, the system of exploitation, poverty, war, and genocide remains untouched. The economic policies of both Republicans and Democrats—along with imperialist alliances and treaties like the USMCA—exist to ensure the uninterrupted flow of profits to the monopolies and the exploitation of the proletariat here and abroad.
Workers and their unions are mobilized to these protests, but the absence of a revolutionary alternative is clear. The communist movement in the U.S. is in crisis, hence the urgent need to reorganize the Communist Party. Our experience in the 2020 uprisings, sparked by the police murder of George Floyd, showed how rapidly the train of class struggle can move. Yet, in the absence of revolutionary leadership, that momentum was diverted into a dead-end, draining its potential. Though we are few, the communists of the Communist Workers’ Platform have a responsibility to meet the masses in their indignation, with a clear message: a better future is possible, but only through the construction of a new, socialist society.
The workers and peoples of the US cannot again be trapped within the cage of the “lesser of two evils”. We have an alternative and that is the in the ranks of the working class party – the Communist Party.
Power has its parties, we have ours!
Here you will find flyers that can be used to reach the attendees of the protests. The communists must be present!
