INTRODUCTION TO MARXISM

What is communism? Is socialism about dictatorship, or freedom? Why are Western
countries so rich, while most people in the world are poor and starving? Why is
the US at a constant state of war with poor countries? What is revolution? Isn't
it violent? Why is racism and sexism so prevalent? Is Canada a class society?
Aren't we all middle class? Is Canada really democratic?

If you struggle with any of theses questions, then you are going to want to
participate in this course!
