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.

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.
