The US And The CPC: A Tale Of Two Anniversaries

July 7, 2026 Carlos Martinez, Orinoco Tribune. Educate! American Revolution, China, Communist Party, Neoliberalism, Socialism, United States

This week features two anniversaries that, taken together, tell much of the story of our age. On July 1, the Communist Party of China marked 105 years since its founding. On July 4, the United States celebrates 250 years since the Declaration of Independence. The two milestones invite a comparison: what have these two political projects contributed to the world? The US was born in a revolution against empire and has spent much of its life building one. By one widely cited reckoning, the US has been at war for over 90 per cent of its history — from the wars of continental conquest to Korea, Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya and Iran.

US Empire Crumbling: A New World In Birth

July 4, 2026 Larry Holmes, Workers World. Strategize! Global South, International Solidarity, Social Movements, Socialism, US Empire

The biggest significance of the 250th anniversary of the U.S. is that the world dominated by the U.S. Empire is ending. This is like a giant dam breaking, a dam that had at once been a catalyst for change but has also stifled it. The impact of this is as enormous as it is unpredictable. It could be that what the world needs, what revolutionaries have dreamed about and dedicated our lives to, is no longer unthinkable in the foreseeable future. This is the time for revolutionary forces everywhere to ask themselves, “What is our new political orientation for the post-U.S. Empire world that is coming into being?”

Facing Washington’s Threats, DPRK And China Renew Ties

July 1, 2026 Ju-Hyun Park, Breakthrough News. Educate! China, Foreign Relations, North Korea, Socialism, Xi Jinping

On June 8, President Xi Jinping arrived in the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (commonly referred to as North Korea) for a two-day visit, his first since 2019. Accompanied by a high-profile entourage that included Foreign Minister Wang Yi, Defense Minister Admiral Dong Jun, and CPC Secretariat Member Cai Qi, Xi’s arrival highlighted the deepening strategic partnership between the neighboring socialist states, which have as of late entered a new chapter in their relationship. Much was said from both sides about the profundity and unshakeability of their “invincible” friendship, along with pledges to expand bilateral cooperation, strategic dialogue, and economic and political coordination as fellow socialist states.

Keralam’s Left Prepares To Defend Social Programs From New Government

June 30, 2026 Abdul Rahman, Breakthrough News. Organize! India, Kerala, Left Movements, Neoliberalism, Socialism

The left parties in India’s Keralam say they are laying the groundwork to launch mass struggles in defense of the state’s public sector and welfare system. As Keralam’s newly elected centrist government begins to push neoliberal economic policies, the state’s left says it will never accept the privatization of its public services. The various constituents of the Left Democratic Front (LDF) have already taken to the streets in the state to oppose some of the policy initiatives of the newly elected government, calling them contrary to the general political consensus of the state, which is rooted in welfarism.

Fighting The Corporate Duopoly At The Ballot Box

June 26, 2026 The Chris Hedges Report. Resistance Report Congress, Elections, Kshama Sawant, Socialism, Working Class

In this episode of The Chris Hedges Report, Chris Hedges speaks with Kshama Sawant, a revolutionary socialist based in Seattle, Washington, who is challenging long-time incumbent Democrat Adam Smith for Congress. Sawant served in the Seattle City Council for more than a decade during which she and her supporters won unprecedented victories for higher wages, affordable housing, taxing Amazon, LGBTQ rights and more. She then went on to organize a national working-class movement, Workers Strike Back. Sawant is building on that work by running a courageous and unabashed anti-capitalist campaign for the working class.

Socialism Under Siege: Cuba Embarks On Emergency Reforms

June 23, 2026 C. J. Atkins, People's World. Strategize! Cuba, Economic Blockade, Financial Reform, Socialism

State capitalism, socialist market economy, New Economic Policy—whatever term supporters or critics of the Cuban Revolution want to use, it’s clear that the emergency reforms being proposed in that country will bring major changes to its socialist system. On June 19, Cuba’s National Assembly unanimously approved a sweeping package of 176 economic measures presented by Prime Minister Manuel Marrero in a nearly two-hour address to lawmakers. The package touches virtually every pillar of the socialist economy: private property, market pricing, labor law, banking, and foreign investment.

Pure Socialism Is Pure Idealism: A Reply To Jacobin On China

June 15, 2026 Carlos Martinez, Friends of Socialist China. Educate! Capitalism, China, Poverty Eradication, Socialism

In the following article, Friends of Socialist China co-editor Carlos Martinez responds to a recent Jacobin book review which presents China’s economic rise as a simple story of “brutal exploitation” indistinguishable from the horrors of Britain’s industrial revolution. While not doubting the hardships described in the book under review, Carlos argues that Jacobin’s framing is ahistorical and idealist. China’s growth has not merely enriched a class of capitalists but transformed the lives of the majority, lifting hundreds of millions out of poverty and improving working class wages and conditions at an extraordinary pace.

Europe And The US At The Crossroads, Then And Now

June 4, 2026 Richard D. Wolff, Scheer Post. Educate! European Union (EU), History, Socialism, Trump Administration

By the end of World War 2 in Europe, that continent’s extremely violent self-destruction had killed tens of millions and wrecked many economies. Its politically dominant employer classes had driven their national governments to a clash that had produced those results. By 1945 the war’s outcome had proved far worse than many in those classes had imagined or wanted before the war. Europeans had struggled after 1917/1918 to overcome their self-destruction in World War 1. In the short span between the end of the First and the beginning of the Second World War, Europe destabilized itself via its reparations program, Germany’s staggering inflation, and then global capitalism’s worst ever collapse in 1929.

Africa Liberation Day 2026: Renewed Struggle For Sovereignty, Liberation

May 27, 2026 Nicholas Mwangi, People's Dispatch. Create! Africa, African Liberation Day, Pan-African unity, Socialism

On May 25, progressive movements, socialist organizations, cooperatives, students, artists and Pan-Africanist formations across Africa commemorated Africa Liberation Day 2026 with renewed calls for sovereignty, continental unity, and resistance against imperialism. The commemorations took place in various countries, including Kenya and Tanzania, while in Ghana, the Socialist Movement of Ghana released a statement marking the occasion. At the same time, Pan Africanism Today issued a broader political intervention focused on sovereignty, imperialism, and the unfinished project of African liberation.

Cuba Is Not A Failed State; It Is A Besieged State

May 18, 2026 Roger D. Harris and Sara Flounders, Popular Resistance. Educate! Cuba, May Day, Revolution, Sanctions, Socialism, US Imperialism

May Day is the most important public celebration in Cuba. This year, which marked the 100th anniversary of Fidel Castro’s birth, carried special significance in light of heightened US aggression. Over 5 million Cubans reportedly mobilized island-wide under the slogan of la patria se defiende (the homeland must be defended). The largest demonstration took place in Havana in front of the US embassy. The symbolism of International Workers’ Day was not lost on the White House. President Trump chose that day, May 1, to impose yet more sanctions on top of the already draconian illegal measures immiserating Cuba.

The Future – Socialism – Is Possible And Necessary

May 15, 2026 Vijay Prashad, Tricontinental Institute for Social Research. Strategize! Capitalism, climate crisis, climate refugees, popular power, Socialism

In 2022, the roughly 10,500 citizens of the Pacific Island state of Tuvalu began to migrate not from one country to another but from their physical islands to the digital world. Faced with the prospect that climate change could make its low-lying territory uninhabitable in just a few decades, Tuvalu set out to become the ‘first digital nation’, building a three-dimensional record of its land, archiving its culture, and preparing digital systems of identity and governance so that it could continue to function even if its people are scattered across the world.

After The US Bombing, A Venezuelan Community Under Siege Speaks

April 23, 2026 Roger D. Harris, Popular Resistance. Resist! Cilia Flores, Kidnapping, Nicolas Maduro, Socialism, US Military Intervention, Venezuela

The large-scale US airstrike on Venezuela was unprecedented in modern history. The surprise attack forcibly kidnapped President Nicolás Maduro and his wife, First Combatant Cilia Flores, from Fort Tiuna on the outskirts of Caracas. The US killed over 100 people in the early morning hours of January 3, 2026, including reportedly some civilians in the neighboring Ciudad Tiuna social housing complex. We visited Ciudad Tiuna 50 days after the US bombing to hear the resident’s accounts. We were the second “solidarity brigade” to visit Venezuela and the first to arrive by air.

Popular Participation And Socialist Renewal In Cuba In A Time Of Crisis

April 1, 2026 Isaac Saney and James Counts Early, Black Agenda Report. Strategize! Cuba, Economic Blockade, Revolution, Socialism

Central to Cuba’s strategy is the recognition that economic stabilization cannot be imposed from above. Deputy Prime Minister Oscar Pérez Oliva Fraga emphasized that the Program operates through continuous monitoring, debate, and public discussion. This reflects the realities of Cuba’s economic situation. As a small and trade-dependent economy, the country faces enormous distortions caused by the U.S. blockade and by its forced exclusion from the international financial system. The economic war’s intensification—including Cuba’s placement on the U.S. list of state sponsors of terrorism—severely obstructs banking operations, investment flows, and basic trade.

Spain’s Migrant Regularization Marks A Rare Progressive Turn

March 30, 2026 Kim Wilson, Canadian Dimension. Create! Immigrant Rights, Socialism, Spain, Worker Rights

On a warm and sunny February morning in Alicante, dozens of people crowded outside the Algerian consulate next to the city’s central market. Almost entirely men, mostly young or middle-aged, they rummaged through documents and passports, speaking Arabic to one another in low voices. The spectacle on the street couldn’t have gone unnoticed. Small crowds of migrants have become a common sight in cities across Spain since Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez’s recent announcement that the government would soon begin the process of regularizing undocumented migrant workers currently living there.
