We have an historic duty to lay the foundations of a world party of communist revolution, capable of navigating the stormy seas of war, revolution and counter-revolution. For this, we need to maintain our firm emphasis on Marxist theory: the only tool capable of explaining the tumultuous state of politics. We also need to find a road to the advanced layers of workers and youth, who are witnessing their futures sacrificed on the altar of capital. Since our founding congress in 2024, our international has taken huge strides forward by following this approach. We have extended our influence in every corner of the planet! We have a presence in around 60 countries and our analysis reaches hundreds of thousands of class fighters through our articles, podcasts and social media activity. This session led by Ben Curry will give an overview of the development of the RCI, laying out the main objectives and priorities facing our comrades in the coming period. 🫵 Join the Revolutionary Communist International: https://marxist.com/join-us.htm 📚 Marxist literature: https://wellred-books.com/ 🎧 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/68nGNHz... 📱 Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast... 📸 Instagram: / revcomintern 💬 Twitter: https://x.com/revcomintern/
