Midwestern Marx, Chicago Workers School
Jun 17, 2024
Eddie Liger of Midwestern Marx emphasizes the importance of historical figures like Martin Luther King Jr. and W.E.B. Du Bois in shaping an American approach to communism that addresses the country's unique social context. He criticizes "hindsight anti-imperialism," arguing that true anti-imperialism requires consistent opposition from the start, not just after wars have proven disastrous. Eddie calls for a strong communist movement grounded in Marxist theory through study groups and community organizing. He envisions an intellectually rigorous and practically engaged movement that unites different sectors of society to combat capitalism and imperialism in the United States.
