 Progressive Labor Party on Race & Racism

OUR FIGHT

 

Progressive Labor Party (PLP) fights to destroy capitalism and the dictatorship of the capitalist class. We organize workers, soldiers and youth into a revolutionary movement for communism.

Only the dictatorship of the working class — communism — can provide a lasting solution to the disaster that is today’s world for billions of people. This cannot be done through electoral politics, but requires a revolutionary movement and a mass Red Army led by PLP.

Worldwide capitalism, in its relentless drive for profit, inevitably leads to war, fascism, poverty, disease, starvation and environmental destruction. The capitalist class, through its state power — governments, armies, police, schools and culture —  maintains a dictatorship over the world’s workers. The capitalist dictatorship supports, and is supported by, the anti-working-class ideologies of racism, sexism, nationalism, individualism and religion.

While the bosses and their mouthpieces claim “communism is dead,” capitalism is the real failure for billions worldwide. Capitalism returned to Russia and China because socialism retained many aspects of the profit system, like wages and privileges. Russia and China did not establish communism.

Communism means working collectively to build a worker-run society. We will abolish work for wages, money and profits. Everyone will share in society’s benefits and burdens. 

Communism means abolishing racism and the concept of “race.” Capitalism uses racism to super-exploit black, Latino, Asian and indigenous workers, and to divide the entire working class.

Communism means abolishing the special oppression of women — sexism — and divisive gender roles created by the class society.

Communism means abolishing nations and nationalism. One international working class, one world, one Party.

Communism means that the minds of millions of workers must become free from religion’s false promises, unscientific thinking and poisonous ideology. Communism will triumph when the masses of workers can use the science of dialectical materialism to understand, analyze and change the world to meet their needs and aspirations.

  Communism means the Party leads every aspect of society. For this to work, millions of workers — eventually everyone — must become communist organizers. Join Us!

Colombia Peace Plan Hides Capitalist Agenda

The much hoped-for peace in Colombia as negotiations continue between the government and the FARC (Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia) is just another capitalist farce in which the working class has nothing to win. This farce is so shameless that those affected by war, the displaced from the countryside, and the murder victims are only spectators of this process. Misleaders  in the political opposition with connections will reap all the benefits of restitution.
Behind the negotiations are the interests of the mining and oil corporations. All those sectors that could benefit Colombia to exploit the working class. These companies only offering miserable salaries and horrible working conditions.
Recently, there is repression against any demand or workers’ struggle, with private armies and officers murdering workers and union leaders,as well as the raping of workers and peasant women, which makes more evident the racist and sexist character of exploitation. Capitalists from Europe, the U.S. and Asia want a piece of the pie, so they are offering generous donations to politicians guarantee to buy their right to exploit workers.
World capitalism is in a crisis and the generosity they are trying to show with legislation benefiting undocumented workers in the U.S., and removing the needs for visas in Europe are only tactics to prop up their declining rates of profits. We must pay attention to these conditions and refrain from siding with any capitalist faction. We must organize and fight around PLP’s line to develop a communist base and, in the not so distant future, abolish capitalism with the dictatorship of the proletariat. Join PLP.
