This was a collaborative production with the podcast, Against Japanism. Be sure to follow them on Twitter and Instagram for updates.

Allyn Rickett was arrested in China shortly after the 1949 revolution for espionage. He then underwent a process of criticism, self-criticism for the next four years. This amazing story of transformation is documented in his book who he wrote with his wife, Adele, who was also arrested. The book is titled, Prisoners of Liberation. (Note: We cleaned up the audio a bit and re-uploaded the interview here so it can be easily accessible.)From the MIM website: In 1995, MIM and 14 other organizations brought Allyn Rickett to the University of Massachusetts for the first Prison Awareness Week. He spoke on his experience in revolutionary China where the government used study, self-criticism and labor to rehabilitate its enemies. After his lecture, this interview was conducted by the Undercurrents Program on WMUA 91.1FM. Outro music: Power to the People by Space BabyResources from POLICOMM: https://linktr.ee/policomm

If any of us are serious about changing society in North America, then understanding this reactionary institution is an absolute. To help up dissect this institution and its history, Comrade Ciarán joins the podcast from Salt Lake City who has a lifetime experience interacting with the LDS and its influence.

The anti-revisionist gang breaks down and discusses some important ideas from the incredible book written by William Hinton, Fanshen: A Documentary of Revolution in a Chinese Village, published in 1966. The book covers the Chinese Revolution in the village of Long Bow between 1946-1948. Full of extraordinary stories, theoretical depth and historical experiences of the Chinese people in their struggle against oppression. We broke down this nearly 700-page book into 7 topics of which we believe are useful in the context of the US and our class struggle here.
