Essay on the mythology around the US use of atom bombs in Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
- (Optional) [Zinn - A people's history of the US.](https://www.amazon.com/Peoples-History-United-States/dp/0060838655) A good beginner US history book, looks at US history from the lens of its most oppressed populations. The chapters on the US constitution and civil wars are excellent.
- [Fidel Castro - My Life](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/My_Life_(Fidel_Castro_autobiography)) (Audiobook on torrents). This book will get you into the mindset of what it means to be a socialist: to rebel, to teach, to be a good comrade, and to fight for the betterment of humanity. Castro was an active part of many of the most important events of the 20th century; but not only is his wisdom on these events invaluable, his life was truly extraordinary. You will learn hundreds of lessons from communist grandpa reading this book.
- Michael Parenti - Inventing Reality. [Youtube audiobook](https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL0-IkmzWbjob0rkb9-tZlCvHAKse_HtF6). A great expose of US / western media, examining the tactics employed by a small number of capitalist media companies to indoctrinate the population, backed up by comprehensive historical examples.

The most important US history book. Analyzes the US's settler-colonialist foundations, its history of genocide, exploitation, social bribery, and the spoils that went to those who willingly absorbed into whiteness and the murican dream (even if they had to kill indians to get some cheap land to do so.) Excellent and unique analysis of FDR's new deal as the bribery and absorption of the labor movement into the murican dream.
- [Marx - Wage Labour and Capital](https://www.marxists.org/archive/marx/works/1847/wage-labour/) A great primer to read before diving into Capital.
