In this special episode I argue that the legacies of October continue to guide us in the 21st century. In doing so I draw from the work of Stalin, Mao, Ho Chi Minh and Fidel Castro and advance the argument that the global anti imperialist struggle entered a new phase after October 1917 which we are still in to this day. I also argue that the legacy of the first workers state cannot be erased by the bourgeoisie no matter how hard they try and it is these two legacies that must animate the working of communists in this century.
