The struggle for women’s liberation in China during the Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution (GPCR) was full of obstacles and accomplishments. Several women from this period collectively published a book about their particular struggles during the GPCR, New Women in New China. In a book review, Esperanza joins POLICOM to discuss the important achievements during this period and what it means to women all around the world.

Author Joshua Moufawad-Paul discusses his latest book, Critique of Maoist Reason. We also lay a foundation for this discussion with understanding science and philosophy, theory and practice. What is science in relation to philosophy? Is philosophy dead? Is Maoism is science? We also discuss the different trends within the Maoist milieu.

 A discussion with Mateo Andante and his writings at Bourgeois Philosophy.
We discuss how bourgeois thinking penetrates philosophy departments all over academic institutions in the US, how this impacts the worldview of the working class, and the necessity to combat it with Marxist philosophy.

Mateo was a co-author of the book, On Necrocapitalist: A Plague Journal. Published by Kersplebedeb in 2021 at leftwingbooks.net.

Since this recording, Mateo has unfortunately passed due to an illness. We commemorate his life, his work, and his legacy with this episode. We suggest reading a farewell blog post by Joshua Moufawad-Paul: Yet Again the Weight of Mount Tai: Farewell Comrade Mateo.
