SUMMARY:Mikhail Baitalsky's 'Notebooks for the Grandchildren'
DESCRIPTION:Translator Marilyn Vogt-Downey presents a poignant memoir by Mikhail Baitalsky\, a Ukrainian survivor of the 1930s purges in Soviet Union. Notebooks for the Grandchildren: Recollections of a Supporter of the Marxist Opposition to Stalin Who Survived the Stalin Terror is an indispensable resource for anyone seeking to understand what went wrong after the great Russian Revolution of 1917. Through the eyes of young Ukrainians like himself\, who came of age fighting for the Revolution but were murdered in the late 1930s\, Baitalsky recounts the Revolution’s hopes—and its tragic unraveling under Stalin. He narrates how Stalin rose to power and carried out the “political counterrevolution” that silenced so many. Arrested three times by the Stalin regime\, Baitalsky survived to tell this story. \nMarilyn Vogt-Downey translated for the Writings of Leon Trotsky series (1970s) for Pathfinder Press and Samizdat: Voices of the Soviet Opposition (1974) and was a contributor to the Bulletin in Defense of Marxism (1990s) as well as to Truthout and Counterpunch. She taught high school economics and foreign policy in NYC for 26 years and is currently a delegate to the United Federation of Teachers Retiree Chapter.

SUMMARY:'The Future of Revolution' with Jasper Bernes
DESCRIPTION:How might a twenty-first-century revolution against class society succeed? Join us for a conversation with Jasper Bernes\, author of The Future of Revolution: Communist Prospects from the Paris Commune to the George Floyd Uprising (Verso\, 2026). Communism comes from the future\, but its hopes haunt our past. Bernes reads the revolutionary history of workers’ councils and communes in the light of thinkers from Karl Marx to Paul Mattick and C.L.R. James. \n“In this extraordinary study into revolutionary histories and possibilities\, Jasper Bernes does not let his reader off lightly. He pushes us to think hard alongside him about the logics and activities of collective emancipation—in this task\, we couldn’t ask for a more brilliant guide than Bernes. We need this book now\, and will continue to need it long into the future.” —Natasha Lennard\, author of Being Numerous: Essays on Non-Fascist Life \nJasper Bernes lives in Oakland and teaches in the English Department at the University of California\, Berkeley. A regular contributor to the Field Notes section of the Brooklyn Rail\, he is the author of The Work of Art in the Age of Deindustrialization and two books of poetry\, We Are Nothing and So Can You and Starsdown.
