IKWEZI is a revolutionary Azanian Journal based on Marxism-Leninism-Mao Tsetung Thought, the highest revolutionary ideology of our epoch, synthesizing the wisdom of the International Communist Movement from the time of the Paris Commune. IKWEZI is dedicated to the proletarian revolution in Azania (and the southern African countries) based on the leadership of the working class embodied in the Marxist-Leninist Party. IKWEZI strives to build such a Party in Azania, a party of the proletariat, the most revolutionary class in history, which will unite around all the oppressed classes and strata of society- the peasantry (landless workers in the case of South Africa), petit bourgeois, students, youth, women, etc., at this stage of the national democratic revolution.
