Chimurenga is the Shona word for liberation struggle. There are three distinct periods of anti-colonial struggle to which the word and the concept refers.
The first Chinmurenga dates from the initial anti-colonial struggle of 1896-97 against Cecil Rhodes' British South African Company.
The second Chimurenga refers to the successful anti-apartheid, anti-colonial struggle fought by ZANU and ZAPU from 1960 - 1980, ending in the lancaster house negotiations and agreements and the overwhelming political electoral victory of ZANU, led by Robert Mugabe.
The third Chimurenga refers to the final settlement of the land question - the revolutionary steps taken to re-distribute land seized by the settler colonialists and re-distribute it to the masses which has led to the anger, vitriolic anti-zimbabe, anti-zanu and anti-mugabe propaganda that floods our media, and the cresecendo of diplomatic military and economic actions of imperialism against Zimbabwe and its chosen political leadership.
It is precisely the popular nature of both the second and third Chimurenga struggles led by ZANU and their leader, President Robert Mugabe, that have maintained them in power and enabled them to withstand every imperialist intrigue and assault leveled against them (including the apartheid colonial forces re-branding themselves as the 'MDC' and finding themselves a new 'black Smith' in the person of one Morgan Tsvangirai).
Both Britain and the USA have pumped millions of dollars and enforced harsh punitive economic sanctions (a real modern-day weapon of mass destruction) against the Zimbabwean people. So far the Zimbabweans have passed every test, and proudly maintain their hard-won independence and freedom - for which fully 30,000 Zimbabwean's laid down their lives during the second Chimurenga - and we salute their steadfastness.
Let us not forget that Britain pledged to compensate the so called 'white farmers' (colonial settlers) and re-distribute the land they had taken by force. Having failed to do so (And Claire Short, a British 'Labour Party' foreign secretary, of Irish origin, had a most despicable part to play in this bankrupt act), the people of Zimbabwe were well within their rights to reclaim it - by any means necessary!
It is important to realize that this is only a 'racial' struggle in that it is undoing the former economic superiority created and enforced by the pro-white racist apartheid settler regime. This is a democratic struggle as it is redistributing wealth from a minority to the majority of formerly landless and land-hungry peasants. It is a program that resonates throughout southern Africa, and in particular in South Africa today. Here, also, lie imperialist fears. They guard nothing so jealously as their ill-gotten gains.

Comrade Marcus Garcia , from the Venezuelan Embassy delivers a message to the CPGB-ML's celebration of the 98th anniversary of the Great Socialist October Revolution - held on November 7th 2015 in Saklatvala Hall, Southall.
Cde Garcia delivers this message before the defeat of Nicholas Maduro's PSUV at the recent election of 6 December, which has led Maduro to call for a class offensive against the Venezuelan Bourgeoisie, who are always ready to sell the interests of their country to the US imperialists, in their desire to protect their relative privilege and do down the working and peasant masses of their country.
Read the important article on the Venezuelan election and Bolivarian Revolution here: http://www.lalkar.org/article/2369/venezuela-maduro-says-it-is-time-to-end-cohabitation-and-coexistence-with-the-bourgeoisie
In greeting the meeting he relates how he studied the October revolution in his youth. He notes also that unlike the October Revolution, the Bolivarian Revolution came to power via bourgeois elections, and lacked the united leadership of a strong and militant communist party.
Rather, Hugo Chavez, who had previously used his military position and connections to try and foment revolutionary change, managed to unite many popular movements under his leadership.
Never-the less, the fact that scores were not settled with the Venezuelan comprador Bourgeoisie, have led to a position that has constantly threatened the security of the gains of the Social Programs put in place by the Bolivarian Revolution. The enemy within has scored a considerable victory via the very bourgeois democracy that was always intended to alienate the masses - not to express their interests. Unquestionably, an unholy alliance of interests, backed and masterminded by US imperialism has led to this pass. But steps must be taken by the Bolivarian Revolution to secure its position within Venezuela. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rjSvWBRLFoM
All the more reason, despite the huge advances made by the progressive governments of the South and Latin American nations, to return to Marx and Lenin to understand the basics of class struggle, and class power, to read and understand the state and revolution https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gbyaL8eKIGU, imperialism (the highest stage of capitalism) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=teF94iX14rA, and the history of the Bolshevik revolution https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=42X4l4Qd9qI, which was able to deal with the reactionaries, the feudal, capitalist and imperialist powers of the world more comprehensively than any other popular socialist or people's movement.
As Venezuela enters a new phase, we hope they are able to rally the poor masses, resist the economic and political terrorism unleashed on the region by US imperialism, p

Junior Doctor and CPGB-ML member Ranjeet speaks about the Junior Doctors Strikes in the context of the wider attacks on the NHS, following the May Day march from Clerkenwell Green to Trafalgar Square on 1 May 2016.
The plan to cut pay of medical staff, nursing staff, and all NHS workers, has not come out of the blue, he says, but is part of an ongoing plan to gut the NHS, and introduce an insurance based system that will make enormous profits for massive Health Corporations - United Health, Serco, Circle, Virgin (now the UK's largest GP practice, 'holding health contracts' on some 3 million British citizens), McKinsey, Sodexo, Bupa, and a panoply of others - at the expense of rationed and substandard care, increasingly accessible only to those who supplement a basic level of provision by private insurance - which will become prohibitively expensive as the NHS is hamstrung and run down.
It will not be long before the solitary private units, introduced like trojan horses into our NHS hospitals, have completed their take-over, and instead we find private hospitals, with a few 'charitable' and state wards offering limited care to the needy. And all wage-workers will be needy.
Part of privatising our hospitals is slashing pay and conditions of its workers, and this is why the government is so hell-bent on imposition of a contract that has outraged the medical profession.
The NHS was 'given' to workers at a time when workers looked set to sweep away the whole rotten and corrupt, bloodthirsty and tyrannical system of world-wide capitalism, colonialism, and economic imperialism.
Thanks to the treachery of the Khrushchevite revisionists and the collapse of the USSR, and the deep nadir into which the socialist movement and anti-capitalist resistance has fallen, we find ourselves back at the beginning, and all the social gains that the Labour party assured us were here for good, are being taken away.
Sure enough, the Labour party are complicit in the process of impoverishing our generation, claiming feebly that they're doing their best for us and that the tories simply are 'ideologically' hell bent on imposing austerity. But the truth is that while capitalism lasts, no one - not even a saint, or indeed Karl Marx - can prevent us from being plunged into poverty, misery and war.
The capitalists are in profound economic crisis, with ever greater concentration of wealth in a tiny number of hands at one pole, and pushing vast swathes (well over 60 percent of the worlds population) into abject poverty at the other. While capitalism lasts, only war and destruction can find a 'way out'. For workers, this is simply not an option.
But these are the real economic forces that are pushing to open every avenue - including the 130 billion pounds spent on the NHS - fo

This is a documentary series released in 1978 which focuses entirely upon the events of WW2 from the perspective of the Soviet Union. It is sympathetic to the immense struggle of all the soviet peoples in their fight against fascism. We reproduce it here, on our own YouTube channel to counter the historical revisionism that has arisen across the western world which portrays the United States along with Britain and France as the victors over fascism.
Harpal Brar's presentation on the 70th anniversary of the victory over fascism can be seen here: https://studio.youtube.com/video/6s-jy4kgyPA/edit
