Revision as of 22:17, 22 November 2024
This guide was made by folks over at USU. In the future it might be added to with other contributions by prolewiki editors. Any dedicated and motivated comrade can individually or with a handful of local comrades use this info to start the process of building an organization that can one day be a constituent part of the Communist Party
On primary building
| Work | Why it was picked |
|---|---|
| The Study Group by Cde-Editor Katsfoter | This pamphlet explains why we recommend the study group model and works as a guide for how you can start one. I recommend this text as the first thing you study and discuss with your core group of organizers so that you all are on the same page about what you are setting out to do. If it's just you, start with a circle which the below article Tend the Garden explains. |
| Tend the Garden by Cde. G. Gracchus | As Communists we must see ourselves as gardeners! We must plant the seeds of new orgs, tend to them with commitment and love, and help them grow into something that is difficult to imagine when we hold in our hands only a seed. If we do our jobs, there will soon be a rich forest ecosystem of Communist organizations that we will call The Party. |
| Lessons from Practical Work: the Taxonomy of Local Organizations by Cde-Editor Katsfoter | A guide on how to understand organization growth, from where you are now to a militant communist cell able to engage in consistent practical work without threatening progress, and eventually being part of a larger network of organizations that could someday be The Party. |
| Watch the Cops and Keep Your Eyes Open by Cde-Editor Katsfoter | This article advocated cop watching as a preliminary activity you can do as a nascent org. Priority should still be given to consistent study, something that should be the core of your org at all stages. |
On struggle
| Work | Why it was picked |
|---|---|
| Constructive Struggle by Cde-Editor Katsfoter | Largely adapted from Gracie Lyons book Constructive Criticism, this pamphlet is a guide on how to struggle constructively among comrades in a way that facilitates both individual and org growth. |
| Considerations for Trauma-Informed Political Discussion: by Cde-Editor Myrrh | This is an article we wrote with the intention of adding it to Constructive Struggle in the next edition. |
| Struggle is Not Stagnation by Cde. Peter | This article explains how to view comradely struggle, and why it is an integral part of a healthy unified organization. |
The state of the movement and the tasks ahead of us
| Work | Why it was picked |
|---|---|
| USU Prospectus by USU Editorial Board | Analysis of the current state of the US and Canada movement and where we see our role. |
| Task and Goals by Cde-Editor Katsfoter | We wrote this article in February 2024 outlining the tasks and goals of the movement and advocating for a unification of the Marxist left. |
Other helpful articles
| Work | Why it was picked |
|---|---|
| What is Organizing by Cde. Peter | This article was submitted by Cincinnati Community Aid & Praxis (CCAP), a USU affiliate org and member of the All-Empire Worker's League (AEWL) that has grown from a study to circle to now being a stable organization of committed cadres and has been doing consistent aid work in their community for many months. |
| Battle Lines by Cde-Editor Katsfoter | Who are the friends and enemies of the movement? Where do we direct our attention? |
| Towards a New York League of Workers and Students by Cde-Editor Katsfoter | This piece advocates for a revolutionary league of workers and students in NYC. The part that is useful for non-NYC comrades is the class analysis done in the article. Once you have a consistent group of members meeting and studying, the first project you should give yourselves is to do a detailed class analysis of your community and context. This, along with what you've learned from study and articles like Battle Lines, will let you make better decisions about where and how you should prioritize expanding your work. |
