Help Nepal this May Day

In the next few weeks, we could see a number of major events happening in Nepal. We could see the UCPN (Maoist) lead a people's revolt, we could see the drafting of a new, socialist constitution in Nepal, or we could see the intensification of Indian intervention in Nepal. May Day is almost here, and the Maoists are gearing up to intensify their revolutionary struggle. The deadline for a new constitution, May 28, is approaching rapidly. Maoist Vice Chairman Bhattarai has said thousands of people will take to the streets to establish a new system if their demands aren't met by the deadline. It is important to keep an eye on Nepal.

But there is more us Western revolutionaries can do other than sit here and watch. We can spread awareness, we can educate about Maoist struggles worldwide. International solidarity is a useful tool, especially in attempts to prevent US/Indian intervention in Nepal and other places.
There are numerous things you can do to support the revolution in Nepal this May Day. You can distribute leaflets at events and you can give a lecture (or something shorter). Whatever you want. I will be doing my part too.

If you are looking for leaflets to distribute, then I suggest this one.

Now let's get out there and educate and organize, not just for Nepal, but for ourselves and the world.
