For 53 days, Bolivia witnessed an intense struggle that reached insurrectionary proportions. The movement demanded the resignation of President Rodrigo Paz, and might well have succeeded. Instead, it ended with the government declaring a state of emergency, the persecution of the movement’s leaders, and the continuing of the government’s programme of capitalist austerity. What happened?
The situation in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir is on a knife edge. The mass movement, which was forged over the last three years and which has now reached revolutionary proportions, is on the move. As it has grown in size, so have its demands. By such actions, it has thrown down the gauntlet to the Kashmiri authorities and the Pakistan government.
In recent times, US imperialism’s increasingly apparent decline and erratic behavior on the world stage has seen it losing wars and losing friends. As a result, its grip is also loosening over Southeast Asia, pushing many of its traditional allies to look elsewhere.
100 years ago , Cuban revolutionary leader Fidel Castro was born. Today, the Cuban Revolution is facing a greater threat than at any point in its history.

Which Burnham will the British public get? This veritable chameleon has lived many lives during the course of his political career: playing different parts, wearing various masks, and assuming an assortment of outfits—always dressing to fit the occasion.
The private business actors who have emerged in recent years, and the networks through which they coordinate their thinking, have become a new political force in Cuba. This year marks a century since the birth of the historic leader of Cuban socialism, Fidel Castro; to paraphrase one of his sayings, it seems that his ideas are set to die in the year of his centenary. In fact, his phrase ‘change everything that needs to be changed’ has been hijacked by those driving Cuba’s transition to capitalism.
Recent reports have exposed Israel’s systematic torture and abuse of prisoners, primarily Palestinians, shedding light on depraved acts that have become “state doctrine.” The Israeli imperialists have defended and justified the abuse at every step.

The Cockroach Janata Party’s (CJP) “Sansad Chalo” mobilization was huge. It was the most significant rallying point yet of this online Gen Z “satirical” movement. The Delhi police and Modi’s Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) were completely dumbfounded at the scale of protests.

The Communist is the official newspaper of the party of the Revolutionary Communists of America. It is different from any other publication you’ll find in the US today. Behind this newspaper, there’s a vast network of communist activity from coast to coast. It is a tool for organizing in the streets, at protests and strikes, for building communist cells in our neighborhoods, workplaces, and campuses.
The RCA is on a mission to carry Bolshevism into the political arena of a country that’s ripe for it. Yes, we’re Bolsheviks living in the digital age, and we also use social media and our podcast to spread the communist program. But we’re not the kind of internet leftists who stay inside and “do politics” online. That’s why we need something we can carry with us into the streets and put into people’s hands. The physical paper is an instrument for building a real-life organization—a genuine Communist Party of fighters.
