Exploitation: What It Is & How To Put An End To It`
Video presentation and discussion
You don’t like capitalism. But do you really know what it is?
Why is slave-like child labor in cobalt mines in Africa required under this system for producing the phone in your pocket?
Is greed what drives the economy? Or is it a “system of wage slavery” as Marx wrote? And what difference does it make if you understand it one way or another?
Is the answer “redistribute the wealth” inside the U.S. as some who call themselves socialists demand? Or is the great wealth in the U.S. produced by an international network of global exploitation? And is uprooting and dismantling that network crucial for human emancipation?
If you hunger for a world without exploitation, poverty, oppression, and the destruction of the environment, then come and watch the video "Exploitation, what it is and how to put an end to it" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6LORaqNk3g8) based on a talk by Bob Avakian. And be part of the discussion.

"A whole different way of living is possible: a whole different way to organize society, with a radically different economic foundation and political system, emancipating relations among people and an uplifting culture—all of this oriented to meeting the basic needs and fulfilling the highest interests of the masses of people."
