    The Origins of Christianity

    Merry Christmas! But what is Christmas? What is Christianity, and where did it come from? From a small, radical sect, to the world's most popular religion, spanning from West to East. Here, we republish a talk from 2 years ago given by Alan Woods, theoretical leader of the RCI, on the origins of Christianity. Here, he tracks from the early and radical start of Christianity, through to the bureaucratisation of Christianity and its use to colonise the world. Just a reminder, WellRed Britain is having a 20% off Christmas sale! Get your titles before they go!

    Shostakovich: The musical voice of the Russian Revolution

    From this year's Revolution Festival, Peter Kwasiborski, introduces Shostakovich. Stalin's bureaucracy waged a campaign of hate against artists who defied their narrow doctrine of 'Socialist Realism'. Dmitri Shostakovich's 'Anti-formalist Rayok' lambasts these cultural crimes, and defends the spirit of cultural freedom unleashed by the October Revolution. 🔗 ⁠Head to our website for more analysis on the topic⁠ ✊ ⁠Join the Revolutionary Communist Party⁠ 📰 ⁠Subscribe to The Communist and the In Defence of Marxism magazine⁠ 💸 ⁠Donate to the RCP⁠ 🌐 ⁠Read the latest news and analysis from the RCI

Stalinists have spent a century trying to divide Lenin and Trotsky. But was there really any difference between their ideas? In this talk, Olivia Ruadh, RCP Central Committee member, explains the real legacy of Lenin and Trotsky

    Understanding Marx's Capital

What are the contradicitions inherent in how our economy runs, and how does this impact our lives as workers? At Revolution Festival this year, Adam Booth, who has just rewritten his guide to capital, explains Marx's writing for the modern reader. You can purchase Adam's guide here.

    In Defence of Lenin: special Q&A episode with Rob Sewell

    In honour of the anniversary of the Russian Revolution, Marxist Voice is proud to present a special episode. This Q&A with Rob Sewell, author of In Defence of Lenin, was recorded last night in front of an audience of communists in London eager to hear about the life and ideas of Lenin. The crisis of world capitalism clearly raises the need to train the next generation of Leninists. As we celebrate the Russian Revolution this year, it is clear that our task is to study the lessons of history so we can struggle for revolution today. In Defence of Lenin by Alan Woods and Rob Sewell can be purchased at Wellred Britain.
