Head to basicsbustour.tumblr.com to read the voices from people who hooked up with the tour in New York and beyond.
A send-off! for the volunteers who have spent two weeks making all of this possible! The volunteers have led discussions, organized people, sold copies of BAsics, gotten into debates, held major expressions of culture, and in many various ways connected this revolution with thousands of people. This is our chance to express appreciation for all that they accomplished. It’s your last chance to hear right from them all the stories of what this tour has been like! Check out the new video on the tumblr for a taste of the experience.
A kick-off! While we celebrate and mark the end of this historic tour, this is the chance to look forward and build forward with this movement for revolution. It’s on us, and you, to get connected together and forge something new with thousands more people now learning about and getting into BA and the revolution. Come get connected with plans going forward.
Bring a donation or a dish, paper products or drinks to share. Can you cook food that has been donated? Get in touch.
Come prepared to take materials to distribute in your neighborhood, among your friends.
Can you store materials? Volunteers are needed to store materials to be used in neighborhoods in NYC or shipped to other cities. Come on Sunday prepared to take 1-5 boxes of materials or displays of odd shapes and sizes.

Be part of a happening to let the people of the world know about BA and the BAsics by delivering a much needed internationalist and liberating message — at a moment when American chauvinist “USA. # 1” bullshit is in high gear for the Summer Olympics, and at the same time the US government is waging high tech wars, declaring their right to assassinate anyone anywhere around the world.

Hey all. Emergency need!
The car picking up daily donations from the Bronx food pantry for the BAsics Bus Tour broke down last night on the way back from the NJ weekend with the bus. TODAY can you help with the loan of a car or driving to pick up food from the food pantry and take it to the Bronx convergence/storage space at Mothers on the Move (1-2 miles we think).
Details available — contact the NY Basics Bus Tour team:

Dinner with the BAsics Bus Tour Volunteers
Tuesday, July 24, 7 p.m.
Revolution Books – 146 W. 26th Street (Between 6th & 7th Ave)
One night that is part of changing the whole world. One night to take a step into the future.
What happens when a group of people who are all different ages and nationalities with all different backgrounds takes the work and leadership of Bob Avakian and his vision of revolution and a communist world into the neighborhoods of New York City and surrounding areas that have been abandoned and left to rot by this system? This is your chance to find out! You don’t want to miss this.
Check out what Annie Day describes about hearing stories from the volunteers:
“A collective enthusiasm filled the room, different people finishing each other’s sentences or telling similar stories from different angles, a camaraderie with people checking in on each other, getting each other food and sodas… a stranger would’ve had no idea this crew had, just a few days earlier, been strangers to one another. The first person who spoke – a veteran of the last BAsics Bus tour – started by saying that he should maybe let someone else start, but he’s just so eager. That spoke to a common characteristic of all the volunteers – eager. ” Read more of her post at www.basicsbustour.tumblr.com
There will be a sliding scale to attend: Bring anything from a box of cereal to energy bars to bottles of water to help meet the needs of the volunteers OR donate $5, $25, $50, $100 or $250. Being planned: a silent auction, culture, art and music.
This is a unique opportunity to meet, dine and talk with a core of fighters who have dedicated two weeks of their lives to bringing a whole different world into being. Hear the stories of something really new that is being forged as this tour brings forward and helps to transform the people that will be at the backbone of this revolution. Learn about the hope, joy and debate that gets stirred up when people hear about this leader and the movement they can be part of. Raise the funds that are desperately needed to cover the costs of this tour.
If you lay awake at night with anger at the way things are, and you dream about a far better world – this will be your chance to be part of a truly historic moment on the road to emancipating all of humanity.
Spread this invitation to everyone you know and stay tuned for updates and details.

Sunday 7/22 - Hook up with the Basics Bus Tour in Paterson, NJ:
If you support this tour, are interested in meeting the volunteers, or just plain curious about this experience, join a group going out on the tour in Paterson. Meet at 11 A.M. at the Burger King on 42nd Street between 9th and 10th Ave in Manhattan, and travel with a group going to Paterson. This is a very unique place with a lot of Black, Latino and Arab people and the crew will be going out to all different areas there. Stay as long as you can - return to NYC before dinner time or stay later. (You can take the NJ Transit train or a jitney to NYC).

Friday 7/27 - Pack the courtroom and support Noche:
Noche is a young revolutionary who has been a key leader in organizing the movement to STOP Stop & Frisk. On Wednesday, he attended what was expected to be a routine hearing in the Bronx and outrageously was ordered to trial just over a week later on Friday, July 27. He was arrested for observing a police assault that he happened on up in the Bronx, along with dozens of others. He is a revolutionary fighter who has taken up the work and leadership of Bob Avakian, and he is being singled out and gone after. This cannot stand! We need to pack the courtroom full of people who are outraged by this and will come in solidarity with Noche and this movement for revolution. Watch www.basicsbustour.tumblr.com for more news.

The BAsics Bus Tour is on the ground in NYC! Two buses, with over 2 dozen volunteers, are in the Bronx and Brooklyn as you read this, already meeting and getting with many people about the revolutionary leadership of Bob Avakian – lifting sights to a different and liberating world and the many ways thousands can be involved in this movement for revolution starting now.
Going deep into the ground zero neighborhoods of the NYPD’s ugly stop and frisk assault on hundreds of thousands of youth, thevolunteers were hosted on one of their first nights here for dinner by families of victims of police murder. They describe an evening none will forget, with heartfelt pain and humor, wonderful food and deep exchange about what people face under this system and how to get out of it. (See http://www.basicsbustour.tumblr.com/ and http://www.revcom.us/)
For the next 10 days, the BAsics bus tour travels through the Bronx, Brooklyn and nearby cities, reaching out to and involving thousands and changing people’s ideas of the possiblity of real change – making a movement for revolution real.
