achieving a 2006 electoral victory while growing the Party

February presents us once again with an opportunity to
strengthen our basic understanding of the fight for
democracy and social progress in our country. One decisive
question is the relationship of the struggle of the working
class to the struggle of the African American people. The
core forces of the forward motion for social progress in our
country consist of the working class and its organized form,
the labor movement, in association with the movements of the
nationally and racially oppressed, the movements of women,
and the movements of youth. Decisive is the relationship of
the working class and organized labor to the African
American people.
