Celac-EU summit and the rise of Latin-American sovereignty

While European diplomacy failed on every front, the confident advance of the anti-imperialist bloc was unmistakable. Proletarian writers Subscribe to our  channel Cuban president Miguel Díaz-Canal told EU leaders in no uncertain terms: ‘Latin America and the Caribbean is no longer the backyard of the United States. Nor are we former colonies that require advice. Nor will we accept being treated as simple suppliers of raw materials.’ Eight years after the last meeting between the Community of Latin American and Caribbean States (Celac) and the European Union (EU) in June 2015, European and Latin-American leaders met for a third summit on 17 and 18 July 2023. In the intervening years, political and economic conditions have markedly changed. The growing inf...

Irish republicans challenge sinister ‘debanking’ strategy

‘We will have your house; if you keep going, we will have your car, we will have your kids, we will have your benefits and we will put you in jail.’ Proletarian writers Subscribe to our  channel The phenomena of ‘de-banking’ is an arms-length, extra-legal but extremely draconian punishment that is being increasingly used to target political activists in such a way that they never get to find out exactly what they are accused of or to defend themselves and their rights in a court of law. This article is reproduced from Republican News with thanks. ***** Saoradh’s national chairperson Stephen Murney and his family are the latest republicans to have their bank accounts frozen at the apparent behest of the British state.

Julia Hawkins: My Life in the USSR

https://youtu.be/HR5GRBPsd6U How did the reality of socialism compare with the image painted by western media during the cold war? Julia Hawkins Subscribe to our  channelhttps://www.youtube.com/embed/HR5GRBPsd6U In this invaluable presentation to the Stalin Society, Julia Hawkins gives a moving account of her family and her life growing up in the Soviet Union. “The media portrays Soviet life as dull, grey and oppressive. Nothing could be further from the truth,” she says. “We had rich, secure, cultured and meaningful lives. As workers, we felt we owned not just our places of work, but the whole country, which was set up from top to bottom to serve our interests.” “I didn’t become political until I came to this country, and I didn’t realise what we h...

Soviet Union defeating fascism

https://youtu.be/8ebgmAgh0tw Caleb Maupin and Harpal Brar: Soviet Union defeating fascism Only an evidence-based analysis of WW2 can shed light on the true character of the Soviet Union’s victory over German fascist imperialism. Harpal Brar Subscribe to our  channelhttps://www.youtube.com/embed/8ebgmAgh0tw In this discussion on the Soviet victory over fascism in WW2, Harpal Brar begins by dismissing the most common (and patently absurd) myths surrounding the beginning of the war: in particular, the Molotov-Ribbentrop pact – sometimes (outrageously) called the ‘Hitler-Stalin pact’ – which has so tainted the bourgeois narative of modern history.

Chinese Marxist: The evaluation of Stalin is essentially an ideological struggle

Ever since Khrushchev, when any revisionist or bourgeois ideologue wants to attack socialism, they first attack Josef Stalin, great architect of Soviet socialism. Wang Weiguang Subscribe to our  channel Wang Weiguang, former president of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, has pinpointed a fundamental truth: when the bourgeois ideologues attack Stalin, they are attacking socialism and trying to prevent workers from fighting for their emancipation. https://w.soundcloud.com/player/?url=https%3A//api.soundcloud.com/tracks/1534376515%3Fsecret_token%3Ds-pFltKPmd4u2&color=%23ff5500&inverse=false&auto_play=false&show_user=true Wang Weiguang (born 1950) served as president of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences from 2013-18.
