Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.
As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.
Thank you and happy chatting!

For books anyway, the two books people recommend are Blackshirts and Reds and Inventing Reality. For lectures, there's Yellow Parenti (just search for yellow parenti on Youtube).
I also like his series of lectures called Real History. There's a playlist here (ignore the random Fortnite video at the end): https://invidious.protokolla.fi/playlist?list=PLZdjCqT95Peq3KzB0hU2b_BOi5BF2nmkj
It's split into 5 parts:
Part 1: The Myth of the Founding Fathers
Part 2: The Spanish American War and the Rise of US Imperialism
Part 3: The Functions of Fascism
Part 4: The Real Causes of World War II
Part 5: Psycho-history
