I recently saw the PSL promoting this book, it’s about how a socialist USA could look like and as mentioned in the title, is it worth it? If not, are the any different good books regarding this topic?

    The colonial contradictions have to go, and that’s not going to leave a unified political entity recognizable as the former U$.

    I’m a candidate in the PSL, and I have to say this is not something lost on the party:

    “The socialist government will recognize the inviolable right of all oppressed nations to self-determination with regard to their means of gaining and maintaining their liberation. In the United States, this includes the right of self-determination for African American, Native, Puerto Rican and other Latino national minorities, the Hawai’ian nation, Asian, Pacific Islander, Arab and other oppressed peoples that have experienced oppression as a whole people under capitalism.” (section from their party program)

    I haven’t read the book yet, but I plan on it once i get my hands on it :). Worst case scenario, you don’t like it. Best case scenario, you do.

        if you ever interact with anyone from PSL it’s clear it’s not meant in a paternalistic way
