DESCRIPTION:
You need to hear Raymond Lotta. Because you\'ve been lied to about communism.

You need to hear Raymond Lotta. Because society does not have to be this way.

We can create a world in which there is no exploitation. A world in which people can live cooperatively and solve problems collectively. A world where individuals can flourish. But wait a minute...isn\'t communism a totalitarian nightmare? Don\'t all the textbooks and experts and memoirs agree? No, you\'ve been fed distortions about communism....By the same people who told you that the war in Iraq was about weapons of mass destruction...And by liberal and even some progressive scholars who don\'t want to see the world turned upside down. This is about the nightmare and horror that is THIS system. This is about the future of humanity and the future of the planet.

You need to hear Raymond Lotta. Because the new generation needs to learn about the actual and emancipating history of socialism in the 20th century. And we need to go further and do better in the next round of communist revolution.

Raymond Lotta is bringing revolution to campuses this Fall. Indicting this whole system of capitalism-imperialism as utterly unreformable and unredeemable. Talking about why the future of communist revolution is both viable and desirable because of the leadership and ongoing role of Bob Avakian.

If you yearn for a radically different world and want to learn about why communism will be a far better world...you need to hear Raymond Lotta.

If you want to defend this system and uphold the distortions about socialism, you should be there too...because Raymond Lotta is taking on all comers.

Raymond Lotta is a revolutionary intellectual who takes as his foundation Bob Avakian\'s new synthesis. He has written extensively on China during and after the Cultural Revolution, playing a major role in elucidating the actual thinking of Mao Tsetung and the so-called Gang of Four. In writings, talks, and online videos, he has fought to spread the truth--and refute the lies--about communist revolution in the Soviet Union in `1917-1956 and in China 1949-1976.

See the website: www.thisiscommunism.org

He has also done major work on political economy, including America in Decline and the series \"Shifts and Faultlines in the World Economy\" (at revcom.us) A recent speech, \"Understanding the World Economic Crisis: System Failure and the Need for Revolution\" can be heard at: www.revolutionbooksnyc.org.
