[originally published on Patreon Dec 4, 2022]
Today's the first of a new series examining the legacy of Trotskyism through a parapolitical lens, and to kick it off, we examine the life of Leon Trotsky. I'm joined by Comrade Chad to discuss Trotsky's early life and career through the Bolshevik revolution. Particularly of note are the activities of Trotsky's uncles, his revolutionary activities in France, and his interesting residency in New York City.
Songs:
Lev Bronstein by the Redskins
If I Were a Rich Man - Fiddler on the Roof
Bring It Down by the Redskins
Reds Strike the Blues by the Redskins
