In this class, we will dive into the creation of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization and the problems therein. We’ll learn about this history of NATO during the Cold War, and how the alliance postured itself against the USSR and the Warsaw Pact. Lastly, we will explore the history of NATO during the period of American Unipolarity in the wake of the counter-revolution in the USSR, and how NATO has exposed itself as an imperialist, pro-fascist organization.

This class is the SERIES FINALE in our series on the History of U.S. Imperialism, with a class on the Fall of American Unipolarity! This covers events and developments from 2020 to the present day. It focuses on the failure of American Imperialism abroad and the return of multipolarity in the world. This is an incredible milestone for our PSMLS as we complete a nine class series on U.S. Imperialism, starting from the very origins of it in the late 19th Century all the way up to the present moment.

This class is a presentation from the Black Liberation Commission of the PCUSA on Henry Winston’s “Strategy for a Black Agenda.“ The principal focus of the book is a trenchant Marxist-Leninist analysis of neo-Pan-Africanism and Maoism. The similarities of the two ideologies as bourgeois nationalist trends are clearly exposed. Race, instead of class analysis of world events, separatism as opposed to unity, and fanatical anti-Sovietism, are the hallmarks revealing their reactionary essence.

Join the PSMLS as we watch and discuss the RT documentary "Black in the USSR", which tells the story of African-American immigrants who found a home in the Soviet Union and their experience in the world’s first workers state. This is a presentation from the Black Liberation Commission of the Party of Communists USA along with US Friends of the Soviet People to highlight what it was like for Black people in the USSR, something that isn’t often discussed in American media and political rhetoric.

The PSMLS presents a class on the 79th Anniversary of the Liberation of Auschwitz, featuring Professor Barry Lituchy, Director of the Jasenovac Research Institute.
The Jasenovac Research Institute was founded on the belief that the failure to learn the lessons of the genocide committed against Serbs, Jews and Gypsies during the Second World War rests at the very core of recent events in the Balkans.

January 27th, 2024 marks 80 years since the infamous Siege of Leningrad came to an end with a Soviet victory that foreshadowed the ultimate Nazi defeat. As we have done before with the 80th Anniversaries of famous parts of the Great Patriotic War such as the Victory at Stalingrad, Battle of Kursk and Liberation of Ukraine, we will hold a class to study this siege and honor those who fought to hold off the fascists from Leningrad for nearly 900 days. Over 1.5 million people lost their lives during this siege. We will be using the “Siege of Leningrad” film from the Soviet Film Archive project of US Friends of the Soviet People for parts of the class.

This class is our next installment in this series on the history of U.S. imperialism. With the last class leaving us at the end of the Cold War and the counter-revolution in the Soviet Union, we will now cover the subsequent rise of American unipolarity. This class spans from 1991-2005. First we will address the counter-revolution in the USSR and counter-revolutions across the world at the beginning of the 1990’s, as well as US/NATO intervention in Iraq, Kuwait, Bosnia and more during the decade. The second section will cover the September 11th terrorist attacks and the beginning of the so-called “War on Terror” with the launch of invasions in Afghanistan and Iraq as well as expanded intervention abroad. Lastly we will address the domestic and trade issues of the time, such as NAFTA, the PATRIOT ACT, the Democratic Party change under Clinton and more.
