We are reposting two parts of an interview with Bob Avakian, conducted in 2004. They originally aired on Michael Slate’s Beneath the Surface show on KPFK radio in Los Angeles in 2005. In publishing these here, some editing has been done, particularly for clarity. In some places brief explanatory passages have been added within brackets. Subheads have also been added.
