"The major antagonistic conflicts in the world and the main bloody class struggles in the world are between oppressor and oppressed nations. This can be seen in Afghanistan, Pakistan, Egypt, Venezuela, South Africa, Sudan, Congo and elsewhere. "The class struggle is not concentrated between the pathetic white left and labor movement and the greedy white bourgeoisie. "When we speak of class struggle in the African world, we want to alert everyone that, as dialectical materialists, we are not looking into a world restricted between the African petty bourgeoisie and the African working class. "Rather, we are looking at the sharpening class struggles between these two forces as part of all other social conflicts that are all concentrated in the colonial question as expressed between oppressor and oppressed nations. "We are not liquidating or ignoring in any way the respective secondary conflicts that exist on either side of the main irreconcilable conflicts between these two types of antagonistic nations in the world. "Since the late 1920s during the height and downfall of the international movement of Marcus Garvey to the rise and destruction of black national liberation struggles in the 1960s, the African working class has never led the national liberation struggles in its own name or for its own selfish class interests. The class struggle has been a fierce one. "Recall Marcus Garvey and W.E.B. Dubois or Patrice Lumumba and Moise Tshombe. In both cases, the former represented the African working and poor peasant classes and the latter the represented the African petty bourgeoisie. "These class struggles were never characterized as struggles between socialism and capitalism. Nevertheless, the experience was always a struggle against colonialism, the immediate form of capitalism. "The creation of the African People’s Socialist Party (APSP) is an important development in this struggle. It marks a new phase in the history of the African proletariat—the creation of a political party for black power and African working class rule." uhurunews/story?resource_name=class-struggle-in-the-african-world-imperialist-wars-to-maintain-status-quo-are-part-of-class-struggles
