Brazilian Communist Party (PCB)

The Brazilian Communist Party (PCB), founded in 1922, is a political organization advocating for Marxist-Leninist principles in Brazil. It emerged in response to social inequalities and aimed to promote workers' rights and socialist policies. Over the years, the PCB has faced various challenges, including repression during military dictatorships. Despite its historical struggles, the party has played a role in Brazil's leftist movements and continues to influence political discourse. While it has limited electoral success in recent decades, it remains active in social movements and maintains a commitment to revolutionary change and the establishment of a socialist society.
