October 1, 2024 will mark the 75th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China, when Mao Zedong declared that "the Chinese people have stood up".

This event in NYC will highlight the extraordinary achievements of Chinese socialism over the past 75 years and bring people together to counter the rising tide of anti-China propaganda and the U.S.-led New Cold War.

Discussions will include the ongoing processes of poverty alleviation and modernisation; China's role in the struggle against climate catastrophe; China's contribution to Marxist thought; the significance of the recent meeting of all the Palestinian organizations in China and more.
