This class is the SERIES FINALE in our series on the History of U.S. Imperialism, with a class on the Fall of American Unipolarity! This covers events and developments from 2020-present day and focuses on the failure of American Imperialism abroad and the rise of multipolarity in the world once again. This is an incredible milestone for our PSMLS as we complete a 9 class series on U.S. Imperialism, starting from the very origins of it in the late 19th Century all the way up to the present moment. We’ve produced an incredible outline of events for comrades to do further study on and for future PSMLS classes to tackle more in depth. Join us Tuesday, March 12th at 8 pm EST/5 pm PST for this class!
Below the meeting link and call-in information, links to all uploaded episodes in this series will be listed below for you to catch up on any parts you may have missed.
Next week will be a class on Remembering the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory Fire on Tuesday, March 19th at 8 pm EST/5 pm PST.

If you’re new to PSMLS, the school provides free public collective education every week on Tuesday on a variety of topics from a Marxist-Leninist perspective. You don’t have to be a member of anything or identify as any certain ideology to attend. The PSMLS is a Party of Communists USA initiated and sponsored school, but it is not a party school, which is great because it allows for a wide variety of different perspectives and opinions to be brought forth which don’t necessarily reflect the party line. If you are interested, you can join the PCUSA as an associate member at https://partyofcommunistsusa.net/join-the-pcusa/ or just check them out at partyofcommunistsusa.net.
Defend the Peoples School and Party of Communists USA! In 2022 we were attacked and sabotaged by ultra-left wreckers that tried to steal the PSMLS and destroy the PCUSA. They failed, but they will be held accountable and there are still things they took from us that we’ve not got back, like videos, imagery, audio etc. That is why we still need donations to the legal drive. If you support the school and want to see us continue to improve and keep delivering this education 51 weeks a year, please pitch in whatever you can and support the GoFundMe for the legal drive @ https://www.gofundme.com/f/legal-fund-to-defend-against-wreckers. Anything helps!
Help spread the word about the Peoples School by spreading our propaganda! You can find printable flyers, stickers, business cards and brochures at peoplesschool.us/media, and you can post them up, leave them somewhere or hand them out to other working class Americans. Feel free to take a picture of them being distributed show we can show our propaganda being spread across the nation! You can also promote the school AND support us by buying our Peoples School for Marxist-Leninist Studies merchandise from our CafePress store linked at peoplesschool.us/store. You can find PSMLS apparel, phone accessories, magnets, stickers, pins, office supplies, cups and more there and you can also find the storefront of our sponsor, the Party of Communists USA there as well.
As always, be sure to support our partner publishing house, New Outlook Publishers! They have many books on Marxism-Leninism and contributions from fellow travelers of the communist movement as well. They also have texts compiled and published from commissions and other bodies of the Party of Communists USA, and are putting out the new releases of recently continued works of old like The Communist and New Masses. You can find them at newoutlookpublishers.store and when you purchase from New Outlook Publishers, you support the PCUSA and the PSMLS!
