I recently saw the PSL promoting this book, it’s about how a socialist USA could look like and as mentioned in the title, is it worth it? If not, are the any different good books regarding this topic?

    People on here will call for the balkanization of the US every day but then you’ll get downvoted for saying that there is no socialist future for the US. Wild.

    The US is a capitalist, colonial project that exists solely to prop up the wealth accumulation of the bourgeoisie. Of course it needs to be dismantled. Landback is an essential part of a socialist project on Turtle Island, otherwise all you’ll end up with is settler socialism. That is to say, the same colonial hierarchies, but with (white) workers in charge.

      You’re obviously correct, just adding that this isn’t something lost on PSL. There are discussions about landback, plurinationalism, and the official line is sovereignty up to and including the right to complete secession for indigenous nations and any black congress that forms. Just adding.
