DESCRIPTION:This is an online event which welcomes all those who wish to help 
 commemorate the 100 year anniversary of the Russian Revolution.\n\nDavid 
 North is chairman of the WSWS International Editorial Board. \n\nHe has 
 been a leader of the socialist movement for four decades. \n\nHe is an 
 expert on the history of the Russian Revolution and the author of numerous 
 works, including In Defense of Leon Trotsky and The Russian Revolution and 
 the Unfinished 20th Century.\n\nIn the aftermath of the dissolution of the 
 Soviet Union in 1991, there emerged a new consensus among bourgeois 
 academics that the Russian Revolution was little more than a political 
 accident, an illegitimate and even criminal departure from the “normal” 
 – i.e., capitalist – course of historical development. The monumental 
 international political impact of the October Revolution and immense 
 economic, social and cultural achievements of the Soviet Union were ignored 
 and dismissed.\n\nAnd yet, despite these claims, the October Revolution 
 will live in history as the most significant political event of the 
 twentieth century. The study of this revolution is an essential 
 prerequisite for finding an answer to the worldwide crisis of the 
 twenty-first century.\n\nLinks:\nTo
