Book Publishing
In 2021, we published Marxist-Leninist Perspectives on Black Liberation and Socialism by Frank Chapman, a community leader and veteran activist in Chicago. In 2023, we published The Revolutionary Science of Marxism-Leninism by J. Sykes. After the release of each book, public events and study groups were organized in over a dozen cities across the country to discuss the ideas of these books. Publishing books serves our educational purposes by studying, describing, and analyzing the conditions, relationships, and dynamics of our society. By promoting these publications to the public, and organizing discussions about them, we hope to educate the public on important social issues relevant to working class and oppressed people.
