THE DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE (And Related Questions): INVENTIONS AND DISTORTIONS OF REALITY AND HISTORY—IN THE SERVICE OF REAL AND REPEATED ATROCITY.

In this penetrating series, Avakian shows how the Declaration of Independence “involves inventions and distortions of reality and history, which have been utilized in the service of real and repeated atrocity, and how there is now an urgent need to bring into being a radical, truly emancipating alternative to the system that was inspired by the Declaration of Independence 250 years ago, a system which has now become completely outmoded and poses an existential threat to humanity.”

The articles in this three-part series include:
