By the Month of Resistance in October, "1000 Years – $1000" should aim to raise tens of thousands of dollars more. And this should be expressed in a national day of major determined action that involves hundreds of people in early October as part of the Month Of Resistance.

$100 from Family of Iranian Revolutionary, "so his life can count for the emancipation of humanity."
June 3, 2014
From a member of a family who made a group donation of $100 to
BA Everywhere recently:
"My brother was a revolutionary in Iran during the vicious rule of the US-backed Shah. After the revolution, under the Khomeni regime, he continued his revolutionary work. He was arrested, held for two months, tortured, and finally executed. He would have been 58 years old if he had lived. My family members have each pitched in funds, and together we are donating $100 to the BA Everywhere "1000 years – $1000" campaign, so his life can count for the emancipation of humanity."

I'm also extending a challenge to everyone who hates and wants to eliminate the many outrages that unceasingly flow from the capitalist-imperialist system—or anyone who hates to see injustice go unchallenged—to match not just the amount I'm raising, but all that will be given by prisoners, ex-prisoners, and their loved ones.
