That's a solid list, and well organized too! Lenin and Mao complement each other really well I find.

Good to hear! I'm almost through Marxism and the National Question, so Mao's texts are next before Org theory. Anything else you recommend adding to my reading list? I plan on reading Fanon, Feinberg, Losurdo, and other authors.

I think this is pretty comprehensive. Das Kapital is a good read as well, but it's more theoretical in terms of analyzing capitalist mechanics. It's a bit of tough read as well in my opinion. I think the books on the list are more practical in terms of explaining how tangible action works.

Another book I found really interesting was The East is Still Red. It describes China's path from the revolution, and it has a lot of insights into how society and economy evolves after the revolution https://redletterspp.com/products/the-east-is-still-red
