Lenin died in 1924 bruh.
Check out this account of Emilia Tynes-Mensah of the Soviet recruitment of african-americans pre-Stalin, it's actually pretty eye opening.

Granted when Stalin took over all that went out the window, but you'd be hard pressed to say that it wasn't measures better than the US before that.
Once Stalin started purging and gave up on internationalism though, it became more of a propaganda point than an actual goal to be achieved.
I wasn't arguing your point just piling on Rhood more.
