Communists of America

The starting point for all of our activities is political clarity. Only by building in quality will we succeed in building in quantity. But have we fully grasped all that this entails? Antonio Balmer leads off a discussion to shed fresh light on a familiar task we are all engaged in—the task of becoming Marxists.
This leadoff was recorded at the 2023 National Congress of what was formerly Socialist Revolution. In July 2024, we will found the Revolutionary Communists of America. If you are a genuine communist and want to take part in this historic event, join the party: https://communistusa.org/join.

We're interrupting our planned schedule for the Communists of America podcast with a special episode. UAW Local 4811, which represents 48,000 workers at the University of California system, has called a political strike in response to the brutal repression of the Gaza solidarity encampments. Tom Trottier, Antonio Balmer, and a rank-and-file member of the union at UC San Diego discuss how this struggle can escalate to a point of victory.

The US is living through a revival in the class struggle. There's a fresh layer of the working class that supports unions, and wants to organize and fight for workers rights and for a better society. In the first of two episodes, Tom Trottier discusses the situation in the US labor movement today and the role of communists.

Student activists have escalated the Palestine solidarity movement significantly over the past week, establishing encampments at campuses across the country. The goal of the students is to divest—that is, cut all financial ties—from companies that are aiding Israel’s war. The Revolutionary Communists of America wholeheartedly support this movement and seek to help escalate it however possible. We encourage all communists, pro-Palestinian workers, and young people to help build this movement nationwide. In this episode, we offer our proposals for how we can collectively escalate the movement further.

Vladimir Lenin was the greatest revolutionary in history. He built the Bolshevik Party, which led the working class to power in the Russian Revolution of 1917—the greatest event in human history to date. Lenin may have died 100 years ago, but the RCA is building a party following in his footsteps.

The Communist is the official newspaper of the Revolutionary Communists of America. We’re not the kind of internet leftists who stay inside and “do politics” online. The physical paper is an instrument for building a real-life organization—a genuine Communist Party of fighters. It is a tool for organizing in the streets, at protests and strikes, for building communist cells in our neighborhoods, workplaces, and campuses.

The Revolutionary Communists of America are a product of this new period in history. We are here for the complete overthrow of capitalism. If you consider yourself a communist, if you're committed to carrying out a revolution in our lifetime, this is your podcast.
