Perhaps no one in history has been as maligned in the Western Press as Joseph Stalin. On December 18, 1878, Yosif Djugashvili was born in what is now the country of Georgia. He was born to a very poor family. His father was a shoemaker. This is Stalin at age 16, when he started studying seminary studies at the University
Great interview, thank you for your analysis! It would be nice, nevertheless, that you could link some of the references mentioned along the podcast. Thanks!
The serious works of Grover Furr helped me to understand that Stalin who all western people think they "know" is a fabricated cartoon, not the real man. Just like the relation between Santa Clauss and the real bishop it is supposed to represent.
There is a minor error in your summary, the quote from Anna Louise Strong refers to the new constitution of 1936, not "early in his rule" in 1925. Stalin obviously had great leadership skills before that point, so perhaps an example from the period from 1917-25 would be more appropriate at that point in the summary.
Grover Furr's work is full of poor analysis, incorrect citations, and cherrypicking all bent toward serving his ideological purpose. This is the kind of stuff that we hate bourgeoisie media for perpetuating, we should not be encouraging in our analysis of history.
