I am a retired teacher from a state that historically did not allow their retired teachers to collect Social Security.
That ruling was recently reversed and, unexpectedly, I received one-time Social Security payment for 2024. I would like to donate $1500 of that payment to the National Campaign to Get @BobAvakianOfficial Everywhere as a matching challenge. And once my $1500 is matched, a friend of mine who is a retired teacher will match it with $1500 more.
Good teaching requires caring about our youth, caring about their future and caring about understanding the world. All three of these are presently under vicious assault by the Trump/MAGA fascist regime – an assault that accelerates daily on many fronts. Bob Avakian gives people what they need to stand up to and fight this unprecedented attack. He models and gives them the scientific approach necessary to break out of their fog and understand why all this is happening. And he gives them the hope, based on that scientific approach, to cast aside despair and to sustain them in the fight to first drive out Trump and then take it all the way to creating a whole new liberating society as reflected in the Constitution for the New Socialist Republic in North America that BA authored.
Caring about our students is what sustained us as teachers. I would strongly encourage other retired teachers who also received this Social Security windfall to make a donation now. There is nothing more important that you could do with that money than fight for a future where all youth flourish.
