Socialist Workers Party (USA)

The Socialist Workers Party (SWP) is a Marxist political party in the United States, founded in 1938. It advocates for socialism, emphasizing workers' rights, social justice, and international solidarity. The SWP seeks to replace capitalism with a system where workers control the economy and political power. Historically, it has focused on labor movements, civil rights, and anti-war activism. The party promotes democratic participation and aims to build a revolutionary movement to achieve its goals. While it has influenced various social movements, it has remained a smaller political entity within the broader U.S. political landscape.
