I was surprised that my dad sent me one of his speech about socialism. I don’t know why but he’s getting popular on the mainstream or at least on youtube shorts. Never read his books and I’m kinda skeptical about him.

Top of my head, (apart from those already mentioned):
Michael Parenti (search books and youtube lectures including Blackshirts and Reds, Sword and the Dollar, Assasination of Julius Caesar)
Hakim: https://youtube.com/@YaBoiHakim/videos
Domenico Losurdo books (including Class Struggles, Liberalism a counter history, Hegel and Freedom of the Moderns)
Redsails crew (Frome, Malone and Day) redsails.org and look up their twitter handles (Eg: https://redsails.org/why-marxism/ , https://redsails.org/concessions/ , https://redsails.org/tankies/ , https://redsails.org/capital-v1-summary/)
bidetmarxman on twitter
Luna Oi (youtube)
Vijay Prashad (various youtube videos and books)
Kyle Ferrana: Why the world needs China (also has twitter handle) - if you could only pick one thing on this list and new to socialism/marxism then read this book (the first part of the book actually includes a condensed world history of socialism including trials and tribulations, it is an excellent intro for the uninitiated, and gives you a good initial toolkit on geopolitics)
(Use xcancel for twitter if needed)
I also concur that Richard Wolff is an excellent intro for those new to marxism. I would, however, then start reading up on dialectical materialism and Domenico Losurdo’s works.
