With Steve Howell - author of 'Game Changer,' the novel 'Collateral Damage' & former advisor to Jeremy Corbyn.

Lenin lies in a tomb in Moscow, yet his teachings are still reviled by 'mainstream' politics 100 years since his death. Yet in today's world, riven by inequality & war, is it worth returning to his forensic analysis of imperialism and opposition to its wars?

Leading anti-imperialist writer Steve Howell looks at the world situation using the framework of Lenin's famous "Imperialism" and how this can help transform our activism today.

Hosted by Lenin 100 and supported by Arise Festival. Lenin 100 in Britain is a series of events run by volunteers taking place in 2024 to commemorate Lenin's life and legacy.
