On the recent debate at national assembly around the Special Economic Zones Act in the National Assembly , what was position did PAC MP present? Can we be e-mailed the paper presented by the PAC MP, please! PAC at the National Assembly is being accused for supporting a right wing capitalist agenda contrary to its Aims and Objectives, it has been difficult to defend the party without the actual paper which outlines the PAC NEC mandate response on the Special Economic Zones Act debate, so having the actual paper will greatly assist the on-going debates among researchers and academics.

Defeated armies learn their lesson" Vladimir Lenin (1920) Steve Biko wrote"We do not want to be reminded that it is we, the indigenous people, who are poor and exploited in the land of our birth. These are concepts which the Black Consciousness approach wishes to eradicate from the black man's mind before our society is driven to chaos by irresponsible people from Coca-cola and hamburger cultural backgrounds." The Quest for a True Humanity, I Write What I Like, 1978. And the most popular writing of Biko about Africans being passive on affairs that affects and determines their well being Biko argued ""The blacks are tired of standing at the touchlines to witness a game that they should be playing. They want to do things for themselves and all by themselves." (Letter to SRC Presidents, I Write What I Like, 1978) Lenin, on Imperialism: The Highest Stage of Capitalism (1914) wrote "When nine-tenths of Africa had been seized (by 1900), when the whole world had been divided up, there was inevitably ushered in the era of monopoly possession of colonies and, consequently, of particularly intense struggle for the division and the redivision of the world", Lenin argued furthermore "The so-called Great Powers have long been exploiting and enslaving a whole number of small and weak nations. And the imperialist war is a war for the division and redivision of this kind of booty." The Party-PAC in the 1959 Pan Africanist Manifesto articulated the party's analysis and political line as follows "A Chain of Reaction. The significant portion of our social milieu begins with the expansion of the markets founded by the rising commercial capital of Western Europe at the turn of the fifteenth century. Succeeding years witnessed the "Discovery " of new lands by the Europeans, the Papal award of the whole of Africa to the Portuguese, increase European slave raids on Africa, denuded Africa of Africans and led to the establishment in the Americas of the greatest mass chattel slavery that the world had over known. Africa has been successfully robbed of Africans. It was this chattel slavery that contributed substantially to the initiations of the European industrial revolution which in turn resulted in the unleashing of the chain of the reaction which culminated in the rape of Africa at the close of the last century." The PAC 1959 Pan Africanist Manifesto furthermore explains the expansion of capitalism and white supremacy in the form of imperialism, the people's revolutionary party alludes that "Land Robbery and political Subjugation. Early Europeans settlement of Africa especially of it's southern tip, as a direct result of the rise of European commercial capital. Wave upon wave European settlers came to Africa and their penetration of the interior involved the loss of sovereignty by the indigenous peoples and the alienation of more and more portions of their land." On compromise and revolution Lenin On Agrarian Question in November 14 (1917), and this provides an answer about the ANC's neo-colonial capitalist state, for us as PAC Lenin summed our political path as follows "It is the duty of the revolution to put an end to compromise, and to put an end to compromise means taking the path of socialist revolution." The answers to the current political paralysis and organisational stagnation of the PAC is provided by Lenin on Left-Wing Communism: An Infantile Disorder (1920), Lenin wrote "How is the discipline of the proletariat's revolutionary party maintained? How is it tested? How is it reinforced? First, by the class-consciousness of the proletarian vanguard and by its devotion to the revolution, by its tenacity, self-sacrifice and heroism. Second, by its ability to link up, maintain the closest contact, and-if you wish-merge, in certain measure, with the broadest masses of the working people-primarily with the proletariat, but also with the non-proletarian masses of working people. Third, by the correctness of the political leadership exercised by this vanguard, by the correctness of its political strategy and tactics, provided the broad masses have seen, from their own experience, that they are correct." "If the leaders seek only to preserve themselves, that is what they become; preserves, dried preserves" Leon Trotsky (1936) on the Revolution Betrayed, while regard to the Permanent Revolution Trotsky furthermore advance the perspective that "With regard to countries with a belated bourgeois development, especially the colonial and semi-colonial countries, the theory of the permanent revolution signifies that the complete and genuine solution of their tasks of achieving democracy and national emancipation is conceivable only through the dictatorship of the proletariat as the leader of the subjugated nation, above all of its peasant masses" Shango lashu Compiled by Nkrumah Raymond Kgagudi I'm part of the 49Million initiative. http://www.49Million.co.za NB: This Email and its contents are subject to the Eskom Holdings Limited EMAIL LEGAL NOTICE which can be viewed at http://www.eskom.co.za/e-mail_legalnotice -- -- Sending your posting to payco@googlegroups.com Unsubscribe by sending an email to payco-unsubscr...@googlegroups.com You can also visit http://groups.google.com/group/payco Visit our website at www.mayihlome.wordpress.com --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Pan Africanist Youth Congress" group.
