DESCRIPTION:Want to know why capitalism is facing its most serious economic crisis 
 since the Great Depression? Want to know why the problem is not that the 
 banks are too big to fail but that capitalism is too big a failure for 
 world humanity? Want to know why no one in their right mind should want to 
 rescue or reform this exploitative and plundering system...and why only 
 socialism can solve problems like racism, health care, and the environment? 
 Then you need to hear Raymond Lotta and participate in a unique live 
 webcast. \n\nRaymond Lotta is a revolutionary intellectual who takes as his 
 foundation Bob Avakian's new synthesis. He has written extensively on China 
 during and after the Cultural Revolution, playing a major role in 
 elucidating the actual thinking of Mao. In writings, talks, and YouTubes, 
 he has fought to spread the truth-and refute the lies--about communist 
 revolution in the Soviet Union in 1917-1956 and in China 1949-1976. Lotta 
 has also done major work on political economy, including America in Decline 
 and the series Shifts and Faultlines in the World Economy (www.revcom.us). 
 A recent speech, "Understanding the World Economic Crisis: System Failure 
 and the Need for Revolution," can be heard at www.revolutionbooksnyc.org. 
 \n\nThis interactive, live webcast is a fund-raiser for Revolution Books in 
 New York City. People will be able to log on by donating $20 (a Paypal 
 account is being set up) and you can ask questions via an e-mail address 
 being created for the occasion (and possibly by phone as well). The cost 
 for attending the event at Revolution Books will be $20/person.\n\n\n
