Introduction as presented by raceeserver org

The fight against racism is an immediate and urgent challenge to our Party. To meet this challenge, we are undertaking a new level of collective ideological struggle within the Party to deepen our working-class approach to this struggle.

We need an updated assessment of where the class and people’s movements are in the fight against racism, of the specific expressions of the increased level of racism and its impact on the class struggle. There are many new developments, the significance of which has not yet been fully grasped. A full collective discussion will make clearer our picture of how mass thought patterns and class consciousness are being influenced by the increased use of racism by the ruling class, a full discussion of our Party’s collective experience in the fight against racism will improve our practical work and initiative.

The discussion should strengthen understanding of what is needed to build the strongest, broadest unity to help the movements go on the offensive.

The document discusses the following areas:

what are the main features of the ruling class’ increased promotion of racism;

how does the increase in racism relate to the systemic crisis of capitalism;

what are the key issues in the fight against racism today;

what are the basics of our Marxist-Leninist analysis and approach;

what is the Party’s role on this critical fight.
