My gf has the correct political vibes so to speak, but no theoretical basis or knowledge of history. However, she is interested in watching documentaries on the subject, so which are the ones you found most valuable? Thanks in advance
A few more good ones:
- Fidel - The untold story
- Paul Robeson - Here I Stand
- Malcolm X - Make it Plain
- The Upright Man (Thomas Sankara)
- Grenada - Future coming Towards Us
There aren’t many good “theory” documentaries, but as far as some good video intros to Marxism, here are a few.
- Introduction to Marxism by Professor Richard D. Wolff
- Michael Parenti - Reflections on the overthrow of the Soviet Union
- Michael Parenti on US imperialism, and the overthrow of Yugoslavia
- Michael Parenti on anti-sovietism in the US media
- Michael Parenti on Imperialism and Film - Rambo and the Swarthy Hordes
- Karl Marx and Marxism - BBC documentary by Stuart Hall
Do you know of any applicable CWs? Id like to watch some with my wife but would need to watch before her if I cant be sure what themes might come up in what setting and with how much detail.
