Added 2022-12-02 11:00:07 +0000 UTCIn this collaboration with Radio Free Amanda, we discuss the third and fourth chapters of Blackshirts and Reds. The book was written by Michael Parenti, a Marxist political scientist and historian who has long been a critic of U.S. empire.
Amanda discuss the third chapter titled "Left Anticommunism", discussing many of the US Left's criticism of socialism in the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe. Jorge presents the fourth chapter, "Communism in Wonderland", where Parenti speaks on many of the very real problems in the Soviet Union that ultimately led to its demise.
