Markin comment:
In light of the comment I made in one of yesterday's entry about the presentation of the short course on the Russian Bolshevik revolution this article seems timely. This article is from the days when Cannon was a central leader of the American Communist Party in the 1920s, another lean time for communists. A time though, as today, when study is most important to get ready for the days when the class struggle heats up and is less one-sided than it is now.
This space is dedicated to the proposition that we need to know the history of the struggles on the left and of earlier progressive movements here and world-wide. If we can learn from the mistakes made in the past (as well as what went right) we can move forward in the future to create a more just and equitable society. We will be reviewing books, CDs, and movies we believe everyone needs to read, hear and look at as well as making commentary from time to time. Greg Green, site manager
