Fight Climate Catastrophe with Revolution

Friday Sep 24, 2021

We present the revolutionary Marxist position on how to adapt to climate change. In the final analysis, the climate catastrophe is a product of capitalist exploitation and domination, and the solution to this problem is intimately connected to the class struggle.

Israel, Palestine, and the Socialist Solution

Israel, Palestine, and the Socialist Solution

Saturday Jul 10, 2021

For decades, the Israel-Palestine conflict has been one of imperialism's most blatant acts of oppression—with the systematic annihilation of the rights and lives of the Palestinian people at the hand of the Israeli state. Under capitalism, both the one-state and two-state solutions are utopian and can only lead to barbarism.  Marxists have a radically different proposal. In this talk from the 2019 Revolution Festival in London, Fred Weston (editor of marxist.com) puts forward a socialist, working-class, internationalist perspective: to fight for the revolutionary mobilization of the Middle Eastern masses against capitalism and imperialism, and for a Socialist Federation of the Middle East.

The Racist Terror of Tulsa 1921

Monday May 31, 2021

On May 31, 1921, 100 years ago, a mob of enraged white vigilantes descended on Tulsa's black district of Greenwood, slaughtering hundreds of black people—the largest mass killing since the Civil War. These events are a tragic example of how American capitalism uses the poison of bigotry to “divide and rule.” Once unleashed on the world, the monster of racism took on a life of its own and has left many corpses in its wake.  Read the full article: srev.org/the-racist-terror-of-tulsa-1921

Alan Woods gives an introduction on Marxist philosophy, dialectical materialism, in the 2018 book launch of The Revolutionary Philosophy of Marxism.
