Good for news on the intense class war then going on in Jamaica; on class struggle in New York, Poland, USSR, etc.

Terribly poor prognosis on class struggle in Africa, claiming that the working class does not exist there; that the emancipation of the working class elucidated in the Manifesto of the communist party is not relevant to that continent.

Just because there is no indigenous African word for class does not mean that class does not exist there. There is no indigenous word for microchip technology, yet microchip technology is prevalent.

The very idea of class did not exist in traditional African society.

The feudal kingdom of Zimbabwe was not a classical (i.e. class based) society?
