USA’s Imperialist Stranglehold on Cuba
by Yanis Iqbal
Cuba has been witnessing anti-government protests since July 11, 2021. These demonstrations are fuelled by a number of factors. The devastating knock-on effects of the Covid-19 pandemic on a developing nation like Cuba – a tourism-dependent economy – coupled with the criminal sanctions and blockade against the country have caused real hardship to the Cuban people and their economy. Cuban leaders have taken a
transparent approach, speaking honestly to the citizens about these realities. However, the touts of imperialism have behaved in a repulsively hypocritical manner, trying to exploit Cuba’s externally engineered social crisis for the promotion of a political agenda of interventionism.

More than 100 activists write to Deccan Herald regarding vilifying and unethical advertisement
Press Release
We are dismayed at the concept of making a game of a person’s death. It is a shame that a newspaper of repute had to resort to making a prize-winning puzzle about a human rights activist, who was incarcerated and abused by a system that is being globally condemned for being draconian. To mock the dead or abuse the living, is
not the sign of a civilized person or publication.

On The Philosophy Of Marxism-Leninism-Maoism
by Harsh Thakor
Professor Joma Sison’s work on ‘Philosophy of Marxism Leninism Maoism’ which is part of the Joma Sison reader series is a classic in it’s own right. Few writings on ideology of Marxism-Leninism -Maoism have ever been as symmetrical, dialectical, incisive or in the total package exhibited more mastery of Leninist ideology. At the very heart Sison touches on how Marxism-Leninism and Maoism have continuity and at no point is there a
rupture.
