In this episode, we engage what is amongst the most important interventions into socialist and communist thought ever, Colonialism as the Mode of Production.

In his recent treatise, Colonialism as The Mode of Production, Chairman Omali Yeshitela synthesizes 50 years of his relentless leadership and the Party’s relentless leadership on this question and points the way forward.
