One Year Since the Louisville Police Murder of Breonna Taylor: Still NO Justice

Breonna Taylor
One year ago, on March 13, 2020, Louisville pigs suddenly forced their way into the apartment of Breonna Taylor, a 26-year-old Black woman who worked as an emergency technician, and killed her in a burst of gunfire. Six months later, the Kentucky attorney general announced a grand jury decision that held none of the cops involved in the raid accountable for Breonna’s murder. On the one year anniversary, people were out in the streets of Louisville and other cities around the country to demand justice for Breonna Taylor and other victims of murder by police. As Breonna’s mother, Tamika Palmer said, “She deserves justice—but there’s so many people that deserve justice.”

Together, WE passed $40,000 in revcom's Winter fundraising campaign to “Transform Revcom.us’ Web Technology and Presence”!
Reaching this goal is a real achievement and a victory for the people of the world, and it wouldn’t have been possible without the dedicated efforts of many people working creatively and collectively to meet this pressing need: those who donated whether large or small contributions, who fundraised, who spread the campaign, who sent statements, who raised comments, questions, criticisms or suggestions – and of course those who worked so hard on modernizing and upgrading our web technology and presence. It all made a difference!
The Ongoing Need for Sustainers
During this four month fund drive, Revcom.us continued to incur thousands of dollars of costs each month for our office, maintaining our existing site and other expenses. But thanks to our existing monthly sustainers we were able to meet these expenses and use all the funds raised in the drive to transform the website.
So we encourage all our donors and those who’ve not yet donated to become monthly sustainers at whatever level you can afford.
Remember, humanity’s fate truly hinges on millions taking up the revolutionary science, strategy, and new communism brought forward by Bob Avakian which they can find at revcom.us.
You’ve read this article and now you need to be part of making sure revcom.us is able to make an urgently needed leap and transformation.
