Late last year, CPUSA Chairman Sam Webb stopped by 92.1FM “The Mic” in Madison to talk about the Communist Party, our country’s need for Socialism, and a number of other topics on the “Books and Beats” radio program.  It is a fantastic introduction to party politics for newcomers and for those who have been here for a while, it is refreshing to see an interview concerning CPUSA begin without the tired question of “are you now or have you ever been a member of the Communist Party of the United States?”  Anyway, the interview is just shy of thirty minutes, but definitely worth a listen.  For music lovers, Billy Bragg’s version of “The Internationale” is included towards the start of Part Two.
