ANTICONQUISTA

On Nuestra America episode 10, we will be discussing why Latin Americans should focus on adapting Marxism to our own conditions rather than getting caught up in Eurocentric theoretical infighting. As Marxists and materialists we must be focused on the conditions that impact our people and communities and not distracted by struggles dating back a century before. We recognize the contributions of soviet Marxism and agree that there's a lot to learn from their revolution and their theorists. What we will emphasize, however, is that there's a need to Latin Americanize Marxism. As Mariátegui proposed; socialism in Latin America cannot be a copy of European socialism, it has to be a heroic creation. As always the second part of the show will be a run down of the weekly news around the region and the diaspora.

ANTICONQUISTA will discuss the recent news coming out of Latin America. There are few if any media sites that provide an overview of what's happening in Latin America especially for those of us in the diaspora. The omission and separation of our people from what is happening in the homelands is intentional. It alienates us from our people and from knowing the abuses and exploitation going on day to day. Our new program seeks to provide a roundup of news in Latin America to make those connections between our people.

Episode 4 of Nuestra America. ANTICONQUISTA discusses the weekly news of Latin America. Week of July 11, 2021.

Episode 3 of Nuestra America. ANTICONQUISTA weekly news roundup of events in Latin America. Week of July 4.

Episode 2 of Nuestra America. With special guest Mutulu Olugbala, M1 of Dead prez. Week of June 27, 2021

ANTICONQUISTA's new series where we provide a recap of this weeks news events in Latin America from the Marxist-Leninist perspective. The week of June 20, 2021

Organised by Geopolitical Economy Research Group - GERG, Qiao Collective and ANTICONQUISTA Panelists -Nicholas Ayala, ANTICONQUISTA -Maria Victor, former member-at-large of the Ontario Law Commission -Marco Fernandes, Dongsheng News The Biden administration has set a clear course for continuing to escalate Washington’s aggression towards China. This comes at a time where movements against racism, against police violence, and for economic, social and climate justice are only growing. As the US sets the stage for confrontation with China, it’s increasingly important to think about how to channel the energy and momentum generated by these movements into preventing the escalation of violence and aggression by Washington and its allies. To do this, an understanding of the countries they target as official enemies is necessary. For progressives in Canada and the US, an understanding of progressive movements and government in Latin America is essential. In recent decades, Left movements and governments in Latin America have won victories, suffered setbacks and sustained popular movements that progressives in the US and Canada can learn from. Accordingly, they have often become the target of the US and Canadian governments. At the same, there is growing imperial anxiety over China’s increased presence in the region – Washington’s so-called “backyard”. Far from another imperial power aiming to subordinate Latin American countries to its own interests, China’s presence in the region presents opportunities to pursue economic development without having to submit to neoliberal imperial preferences. This panel will discuss progressive movements and governments in Latin America and their relationship with China.

Anticonquista co-editor Carlos gives a talk at London's University of Westminster on the influence of Jose Carlos Mariategui in Latin American Marxist thought. From revolutionaries like Che Guevara to Latin American dependency theorists, Mariategui's influence on the social movements in the homeland is undeniable.

Join us for a discussion with Antonio Fernandez aka King Tone, Inca of the Almighty Latin King and Queen Nation, and veteran ALKQN leader Valen aka Madrina. Sons of Fidel will discuss the Black Panther Party for Self Defense's Pamphlet entitled "Capitalism + Dope = Genocide" and how this is relevant to our families and communities today. More information... On Sunday, April 4, ANTICONQUISTA will be hosting a Diaspora Conference for socialist and communist organizations within the Latin American and Caribbean diaspora. We hope to transform ANTICONQUISTA into an umbrella coalition organization for these diverse movements. We envision a huge platform where progressive, socialist and communist groups in the diaspora can collectively organize to deal with the numerous struggles we face nationally where we are but also back in our homeland. It will be the platform that our community will look to first to keep informed but also to get involved in direct action as we understand it in this modern era. Interested in joining and getting involved with the Diaspora Conference? Send us an e-mail at info@anticonquista.com with "Diaspora Conference" in the title. * * Visit Us | Visítanos https://anticonquista.com/​​​​​ Like Us on Facebook | Denos 'Me Gusta' en Facebook https://www.facebook.com/anticonquist...​ Follow Us on Twitter | Síganos en Twitter https://twitter.com/anticonquista/​​​​​ Follow Us on Instagram | Síguenos en Instagram https://www.instagram.com/anticonquis...​ Read Our Books | Lea nuestros libros http://www.lulu.com/spotlight/ANTICON...​ Listen to Our Podcasts | Escucha nuestro podcasts https://soundcloud.com/anticonquista/...​ Fund the Resistance | Ayude a la resistencia https://www.patreon.com/anticonquista...​ Shop | Tienda https://anticonquista.com/shop/​
