155 years ago today, #VladimirLenin was born. Wherever resistance movements struggle against imperialism, wherever communities buckle under the weight of police violence and gentrification, wherever workers and tenants unite, we say: Lenin lived, Lenin lives, Lenin will live.

Today, in 1919, Emiliano #Zapata was murdered after being betrayed by a Mexican government attempting to appear "tough" on "extremists" for American interests. As ever, US imperialism is the gravest threat to the Americas, and the chief architect of division and hate.

Today is the 116th birthday of Enver Hoxha.

His work and ideas remain relevant in our struggles today against reformism and “better than” politics. Our world is still dominated by imperialist blocs who compete with one another, and many on the left still pick sides against the working class.

On the 80th anniversary of the murder of Ernst Thälmann, we remember the sacrifice of all the German communists struggling in the heart of the Nazi beast, and take their legacy into our own struggles against fascism. Not one step back!

Happy Bastille Day. Today, in 1789, the French people showed that "the world turned upside down," a world where the people rule, is possible.

We're still fighting for it against a capitalist class, like that in France, that celebrates the day as one of simple nationalism.

"It is particularly necessary to arouse in all who participate in practical work, or are preparing to take up that work, discontent with the amateurism prevailing among us and an unshakable determination to rid ourselves of it."

Stalin died 71 years ago today.

"As the great man he was, Stalin was able to win the hearts of the party and people, to mobilize their energies, to temper the militants in battles, & uplift them politically and ideologically in order to carry out a great work, without precedent in history." -Hoxha

The Communist Manifesto was first published on this day 176 years ago. Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels forever changed the world with their application of dialectical materialism to the analysis of history.

"Ignorance is the root of many ills. Knowledge must be the fundamental ally of nations that aspire, despite all their tragedies and problems, to become truly emancipated, to build a better world."
