**ANNOUNCEMENT**
For several years we have ran this page. We have shared our experience in practical work. We have shared knowledge to the best of our ability. We have shared our actions in our community and we have made countless friends. We hope that in some way we've helped you on your leftist journey. That was the goal after all. To let it be known that organizing is possible wherever you may be. Whether you're in NYC or a small town in KY. There is not a single piece of ground on this green earth that we shouldnt be fighting on. For a better future. For a world free of capitalist exploitation. That is something we will continue to do, and we will never stop.
However, i must announce that due to several factors we will be shutting down The Red Banner page. We're not sure whether we'll delete it completely or just stop posting. But it will be inactive none the less. Our attention will be pulled to focusing on irl actions, collective struggle with comrades, and building the party we are apart of. While its difficult to walk away from The Red Banner we believe that the payoff will be more than worth it. While social media may at times make us feel connected, it also can promote hyper isolation, and we understand the dangers of that.
I hope we can continue building community, spreading Marxist-Leninist ideology, and in time build a genuine revolutionary movement in America, and the world. Never stop learning, never stop going out and working with the masses.
Thank you all for the time you've given, and thank you all for making The Red Banner feel like a staple page for new and old leftist to follow. Anyone wishing to stay in contact or open a line of communication, you can email us at [email protected]. We'll respond.
Until we see you again, we leave you with one final quote from Lenin, one that seems rather fitting. To end on an optimistic note.
"Despair is typical of those who do not understand the causes of evil, see no way out, and are incapable of struggle. The modern industrial proletariat does not belong to the category of such classes."
In solidarity
