A Long Walk With Russian Imperialism in Your Backpack Zbigniew Marcin Kowalewski the Russian Revolution of October Made Many Think That, Along With Capitalism, Russian Imperialism Had Also Been Abolished. History Soon Refuted This Perspective. However, the Issue Has Been Very Difficult to Address on the Left Until Today. From Poland, Many of These Issues Were Seen More Clearly. A Long Walk With Russian Imperialism in Your Backpack I Was Years Old When, One Night in May , My Father Woke Me Up to Tell Me That the City of Diên Biên Phu Had Just Fallen. He Had Followed the First Indochina War Closely. He Was Passionate About Those Battles and He Gave Me That Interest.
Very Politicized, My Father Was a Visceral Democrat, Anti-communist, but Also Anti-colonialist. He Was Torn. The Communist-led Vietnamese People's Army Had Justto the French Colonial Army. I, for My Part, Was on the Side of the Colonized UK Mobile Database People Who Were Defeating a Great Imperialist Power. Something Very Extraordinary Seemed to Happen in the World. My Hometown, Lodz, Was One of the Largest Industrial Centers in Poland. On October , , Early in the Morning, I Was Leaving for School – I Was in the First Year of High School – When My Father, Who at Night Had Listened to Western Radio Stations.
That Broadcast in Polish, Transmitted Two Very Disturbing News to Me. . One, That Nikita Khrushchev, Surrounded by Several Members of the Political Bureau and His Marshals, Had Just Landed Unexpectedly in Warsaw. Another Was That Soviet Troops Had Left Their Bases in Western Poland and Were Marching Towards the Center of the Country, Visibly Over the Capital. The Political Crisis Was Enormous. In June, the Workers of the City of Poznan Had Risen Up, Some Even Taking Up Arms. The Army Crushed Them With Tanks Launched on the City, but Now Workers' Councils Were Emerging in Factories Throughout the Country. They Demanded a Socialist Democracy, Workers' Management of Companies and Participation in the Exercise of Power. The Student Youth Became Radicalized and Took to the Streets.
