FROM THE FRONTLINES

Defend the Minnesota 15!

Mason M, Minneapolis, MN The federal government is charging 15 activists for “conspiring against agents ” during January’s ICE OUT movement. US Attorney Daniel Rosen claims their actions —attempting to block ICE vehicles —was a conspiracy to interfere with federal operations “by force.” He warns:
If you are actively conspiring to...

Overworked and Sleep Deprived

Yulissa G, Los Angeles, CA I work the graveyard shift at a warehouse. It’s common for my coworkers to suffer sleep deprivation while working this job. According to the National Safety Council, sleep deprivation affects 43% of American workers and 62% of those who work night shifts. It can lead to cognitive impairment, heart...

“The RCA Seems Less Extreme Every Day”

Dan B, St. Louis, MO I went to Zoom training for workers who want to organize and kick ICE out of their workplaces. Organizers from Minneapolis –St. Paul spoke about their experiences on the ground and shared some lessons they've learned. They described how the mood among workers is changing. This is what one non-RCA organizer from Minneapolis had to say about the...

911 Call to an ICE Facility

Anonymous RCA sustainer I work in emergency medicine and ran a call at an ICE detention center. What I saw was horrifying. The facility is very discreet. Before the call, I had no idea it was an ICE detention center. There were signs outside the facility with messages of love and support from friends and family of the detainees. The facility was locked down more than any jail ...

Meeting a Communist Kid

Jonathan Q, Chicago, IL The Chicago comrades were tabling at a train station today when we were approached by an enthusiastic young boy asking if we were communists. “Yes we are! ” “That’s awesome ," he replied, "I’m a communist too! ” One of the comrades asked if he’s organized and he said not yet, but he and his friends had formed a communist...

“Maybe I’m a Communist”

Jordan P, Detroit, MI At a recent paper sale in Flint, we met a man who couldn't believe he’d run into communists. “Like Russia ?” He said, “Isn’t communism a bad thing ?” We explained that workers produce all the wealth in society, but don’t get any say over how it’s distributed. We told him the capitalist class are parasites and need...

New York Workers Say: “ICE Out for Good!”

Erica L, Brooklyn, NY We arrived to “ICE Out for Good ” at Union Square an hour early to have a preparatory political discussion before the rally. Several hundred people gathered around us to listen, so we had to quickly pivot to addressing this wider-than-usual audience rather than having an internally-focused discussion. When we talked about the need for centralized, democratically accountable leadership...

Talking Tactics with My Waitress

Josh M, Minneapolis, MN After a long day of political discussions with new recruits, I decided to treat myself with a meal. I picked a restaurant about a mile away from where Alex Pretti was murdered. As I paid my bill, I asked the waitress whether they had plans if ICE showed up. The answer was, “Yes!” She described the protocol...

Skyline Students Walk Out!

NEA Member at Skyline High School, Mesa, AZ During lunch, students at Skyline High School walked out in protest against ICE. Carrying signs that read "Keep ICE Out" and "No One is Illegal," the students gathered at a street corner before marching off campus. The mood was electric. Cars honked in support. One student said, "We have to walk out. They can apparently just arrest anyone, and that's ...

Local Organizations Looking to Escalate!

Jason R, Minneapolis, MN Yesterday I attended an in-person meeting of a local Signal group chat, wearing my RCA beanie. There were 11 other people in the "business outreach" breakout session, mostly middle-aged. At first, I listened. Someone said corporate-chain managers are much less receptive to anti-ICE procedures and training, and more focused on keeping profits flowing. I asked...

COMMUNIST NEWS

The communist is the party’s official newspaper.

It is different from any other publication you’ll find in the US today. Behind this newspaper, there’s a vast network of communist activity from coast to coast. It is a tool for organizing in the streets, at protests and strikes, for building communist cells in our neighborhoods, workplaces, and campuses.

Yes, we’re Bolsheviks living in the digital age—that’s why you’re reading this on our website, and we also use social media and a podcast. But we’re not the kind of internet leftists who stay inside and “do politics” online. That’s why we need something we can carry with us into the streets and put into people’s hands. The physical paper is an instrument for building a real-life organization.

A PROGRAM FOR REVOLUTION

WHAT WE FIGHT FOR

The RCA is a party of class fighters committed to the overthrow of capitalism. We fight for a world of superabundance and reject the artificial scarcity of a system based on the pursuit of profits. We fight to establish a workers’ government to tackle the roots of war, inequality, oppression, and climate catastrophe.
