Lenin and the Russian Revolution of 1917 | Revolution Festival '24

The February Revolution brought an end to the blood-soaked Tsarist Empire. For the first few months, confusion reigned in Bolshevik party, most of whom failed to understand the limits of the Provisional Government; its interests opposed to the masses that brought it to power. In his April Theses, Lenin was able to theoretically re-arm the Party to connect it to the downtrodden masses, leading them to power in October.

In this episode, Olivia Rickson, Central Committee member for the RCP, discusses Lenin and the Russian Revolution of 1917.
