Memphis Socialist Party

THE SOCIALIST PARTY strives to establish a radical democracy that places people's lives under their own control - a non-racist, classless, feminist socialist society... where working people own and control the means of production and distribution through democratically-controlled public agencies; and where the production of society is used for the benefit of all humanity, not for the private profit of a few. We believe socialism and democracy are one and indivisible.

About

The Memphis Socialist Party, a local chapter of the Socialist Party-USA, was established in October 2008. The SP-USA is a multi-tendency revolutionary socialist organization committed to radical democracy, which rejects the current system where all workers are exploited in the name of profit; production is ever-increasing along with manufactured consumer demand despite finite resources; distribution of goods and services is irrationally unequal; and where our system of economic oppression reinforces racism, sexism, heterosexism, and all forms of bigotry, creating false divisions among the people.

Memphis suffers deeply from the effects of capitalism; the struggle against inequality has left scars in the fabric of our city. Please join the Memphis SP so we can work together to create a network and build a foundation for socialist analysis, education, agitation and action here in Memphis, Tennessee.

In solidarity with the leftist community in Memphis and Tennessee, we publish materials on this blog that may not strictly conform with the SP-USA platform and principles, but reflect the ideas of our comrades in the broader struggle against capitalism and imperialism.
