Mansa is back with Ray Bishop, member of the editorial board of Spartacist, to discuss all things China, from how the CPC's strategy is undermining the defense of China, to the crazy Sparts writing an open letter to the very CPC they are criticising! To make sense of what's going on with China as Trump turns the screws, and what's going on with the Sparts and their crazy letter, tune in and check out the other relevant articles below.
