As we celebrate the 100th anniversary of Lenin’s birth we remember one of his most important contributions to the Communist movement: the idea of a nationwide revolutionary working-class newspaper — a paper that could not only expose the crimes of the ruling class, but help organize the resistance of the working class and its allies. First published in 1924 as the Daily Worker, People’s World has deep roots in that tradition. This week, as part of a series on Confronting Corporate Media, GMR talks with editors and contributors at People’s World about what that work involves today.

The Communist Party USA is a revolutionary working-class political party founded in 1919 in Chicago, IL.
The Communist Party stands for the interests of the American working class and the American people. It stands for our interests in both the present and the future. Solidarity with workers of other countries is also part of our work. We work in coalition with the labor movement, the peace movement, the student movement, organizations fighting for equality and social justice, the environmental movement, immigrants rights groups and the health care for all campaign.
But to win a better life for working families, we believe that we must go further. We believe that the American people can replace capitalism with a system that puts people before profit — socialism.
We are rooted in our country's revolutionary history and its struggles for democracy. We call for "Bill of Rights" socialism, guaranteeing full individual freedoms.
We are a political party of the working class, for the working class, with no corporate sponsors or billionaire backers. Join the generations of workers whose generosity and solidarity sustains the fight for justice.
