  • This article examines Vladimir Lenin’s Marxist theory of racism and his anti-racist struggle. It distinguishes five elements. The first is that racism has a class root. The bourgeoisie promotes racism to exploit, divide, and rule the proletariat. Lenin proposed revolutionary socialism as the solution. Second, Lenin identified proletarian racial unity as essential for achieving socialism. His approach to the national question supported that unity. Third, Lenin integrated racism into his theory of imperialism. He argued that Western capitalism deployed racism to justify colonialism, with the aim of accumulating capital. Fourth, Lenin played a crucial role in opposing racism. Under his leadership, Soviet Russia arose as the world’s first anti-racist state, and the Communist International prioritised anti-racism. Fifth, Leninism played a prominent role in anti-racist struggles during the Soviet era. Leninist revolutionaries led racial liberation movements throughout the world. Lenin’s Marxism provides the key to defeating racism in the world today.

    -noted liberal wokie….Vladimir Lenin?

    Any time you read this sort of hysterical antiwoke bullshit from supposed leftists or left sympathizers, you have to wonder what exactly they gain from this and what most serves their interests. Here, we have uh… the Financial Times. I’ll let you reach your own conclusions.
