About this episode

Lital and Edward are once again joined by Monica, who has been helping organize a united-front demonstration in defense of Cuba happening in New York City (and elsewhere!) on July 17th. We talk about why it's essential to fight to defend the gains of the Cuban Revolution against U.S. imperialism, why the Communist Party's market reforms are throwing open the doors wide for the gusanos and U.S. rulers to foment counterrevolution, and what socialists and anti-imperialists can do right now in the belly of the beast to fight back.JBA recently put out a statement outlining what DSA should do to defend Cuba, which you can read here.
