I surprisingly enjoyed most of the readings in this book. It ranges from Voltaire in his explanation on how inequality arises, to the French Revolutionaries (who were pretty much all executed by the reign of terror) to the Germans like Marx to the Russians like Trotsky and Lenin to Emma Goldman to Mao to Gandhi. Many of the writings are relevant, some contains plans of action, a few are simply repetitive. But overall I'd recommend this to anyone who wants to actually explore leftism and how inequality comes about.

Hilariously, the declaration of independence is in here, which is more of a conservative reaction to the British rule. But whatever.
