Worcester Independent Socialist Group

Worcester Independent Socialist Group The Independent Socialist Group is an organization working to build a new nation-wide socialist party But the ruling class won't give up without a fight.

The Independent Socialist Group is an organization working to build a new nationwide socialist party, fighting in our workplaces and communities against the exploitation and injustices working people face every day under capitalism. We believe a united working class has the power to fight against poverty and homelessness, rising costs of education, useless wars, and budget cuts in public services;

to fight for a living wage and quality, free healthcare for all; to fight back against racism, sexism, and attacks on immigrants and LGBTQ people; and to resolve the climate crisis. In order to win, we need to organize unions for workers who have none, and change existing unions to be more democratic and more powerful. We need to connect the labor movement to other movements for social justice, using the strength of an increasingly organized working class to fight to win our struggles, not just to engage in symbolic protest. While the Republicans are open enemies of the working class, the Democratic Party also consistently attacks the living standards of working people, and refuses to roll back Republican attacks when elected to power. To fight back against the two corporate parties - the Republicans and Democrats - we work alongside other groups to build a new independent political party of workers and young people that fights for the needs of the working class. We see the global capitalist system as the root cause of economic crises, poverty, discrimination, war, and environmental destruction. As capitalism moves deeper into crisis, a new generation of workers and youth must join together to take the economy into public ownership under democratic control by the people in order to plan production for the needs of society and continued survival of the planet. The struggle against the world-wide system of capitalism needs to be international, and we need to link our fight to the working classes of all countries, and to build solidarity with socialist and workers organizations across the globe. We are for socialism and democracy where working people will have control of society and the economy. Join the fight back. Join the Socialists!

"Brittany Kubicek, a member of Rhode Island Democratic Socialists of America (RI DSA), is running for the Rhode Island State House District 5 seat in Providence as an “independent socialist” and her name will be listed on the ballot as “Independent – Socialist.” This is a break with the national DSA’s approach of endorsing Democratic Party candidates and running as Democrats. Beginning in 2023, RI DSA stopped supporting the Democratic Party. They voted for a resolution that included: “Rhode Island DSA will begin endorsing independent socialist candidates in order to encourage the construction of a working-class socialist party in Rhode Island.”

The Independent Socialist Group (ISG) calls for a vote for Brittany Kubicek for Rhode Island State House, and we call for working-class people to get involved in her campaign’s activities, including stand-outs, meetings, canvassing, leafleting, etc. We support the campaign’s intention to continue organizing after election day with union activists, progressives, left groups, and others in order to build a movement for a workers’ party in Rhode Island and beyond. We call for other left and workers’ organizations to take similar steps and to support and get involved in the Brittany for RI campaign. We call for the unions and the labor movement to throw their weight behind the campaign.

We believe the socialist Brittany Kubicek campaign has potential for strong support based on running as an independent and not falling into the trap of the Democratic Party, and we think the campaign can play a key role in helping to push other DSA chapters and members towards political independence for the working class. This campaign represents a clear alternative for working-class people to vote for in this election. It’s also key that the campaign sees the need for strong ties with the labor movement. We see the Brittany for RI campaign as an important opportunity for progressives, activists, socialists, and working-class people to actively organize for key demands her campaign raises that we need to support in the fight against capitalism and the pro-corporate politics of the Democratic and Republican parties."
