multikulti welcomes Network for Revolutionary Change.
The national organization Network for Revolutionary Change (NRC) and the local Chicago chapter have established their committees and chapters at our space during a convergence in August, with Chicago local meetings taking place every Thursday at 7pm. The NRC works to network other grassroots organizations together for building a revolution and to create a national channel of communication and a news source on issues local and national that are not getting the deserved exposure elsewhere.
The NRC operates on four founding principles, with an objective to develop a network of revolutionaries in the U.S.
1. Every struggle for decent and livable work, for adequate homes, quality healthcare and a clean and regenerative world is incompatible with the capitalist political and economic system. We understand that only a revolutionary transformation can bring about the cooperative, abundant and sustainable world that is possible with advanced technology and in harmony with the needs of people to be healthy, free, and imaginative.
2. In today’s world, the question of class is the leading factor to ensure a truly just society that will bring about full and complete equality by providing equal access to resources, education, and social needs regardless of race, gender, sexual orientation, migrant status, or disability. In such a society, access will be based on need rather than on money.
3. Trade unions and other social organizations are vital for the deep social changes needed in the United States, but we also recognize the center of gravity has shifted in the face of robotics to unorganized women, migrants, and labor.
4. Every battle for the well-being and growth of our communities is dependent on the formation of a political apparatus based in the working class. A network of revolutionaries is necessary for this political apparatus to develop properly and comprehensively.
The national meeting established several committees as well as the establishment of the Chicago chapter. The Chicago chapter will focus on issues in Chicago neighborhoods, such as discrimination, immigration rights, Native Americans, gangs, poverty, water and environmental issues as well as corruption in local politics.
Get involved by coming to the Chicago chapter’s open meetings, Thursdays at 7pm at multikulti.
