The Intervention Reads: V. I. Lenin's Draft Theses on National and Colonial Questions

As promised in the previous episode, we discuss V. I. Lenin's Draft Theses on National and Colonial Questions for the Second Congress of the Communist International (https://www.marxists.org/archive/lenin/works/1920/jun/05.htm). It takes us quite awhile to get to the actual text of Lenin because we end up discussing the nation, the ecumenical state, ethnicity, and many of the contradictions therein. Note: Had some pesky background noise in this one that was hard to get rid of. Sorry about that!
