Mansa is joined by Anna Mili of the Trotskyist Group of Greece to discuss key questions for revolutionary strategy for the Global South, a burning question for the left as US imperialism turns the screws on the whole world, squeezing oppressed countries even further. Historically, the Marxist left has fallen into a trap of either supporting the national bourgeoisie against imperialism, or abstractly being for class war, denying that national oppression animates the masses. We argue that the task of revolutionaries is to fuse the national liberation struggle with the struggle for social emancipation, something that defined the Russian Revolution and later, Trotsky's struggle against Stalinism. I hope listeners have as much fun listening as I did in conducting this interview.
