Mirsayet Soltanghaliev (1892–1940) and the anti-colonial revolution

19 June 2025 Soltanghaliev’s name may also be encountered in spellings such as Mirsaid Sultan-Galiev, Mirsәjet Soltanƣәlijef, etc.; I do not claim that the one I have used in my title is the best. The Morning Star, which printed an article of mine very loosely based on this talk, unfortunately fluctuated between ‘Soltanghaliev’ and ‘Sultan-Galiev’. https://morningstaronline.co.uk/article/mirsaid-sultan-galiev-forgotten-forerunner-third-worldist-leftism

15-minute cities: where East Berlin meets The Hunger Games?

6 June 2024 Caption to go with the image: Dave wasn’t actually wild about the idea of eating an insect, but it was important to show he didn’t buy into the conspiracy theories.
