Workers World Party

Workers World Party is a socialist party in the United States. It was founded in 1959 by Sam Marcy. They claim to embrace the political philosophy of Trotskyism but others characterize the group as being Neo-Stalinist. They split off from the Socialist Workers Party in the 1950s.

For the last two presidential elections, their candidate has been activist Monica Moorehead. Workers World has opposed both Gulf Wars and supported the governments of Cuba, North Korea [1], and Libya. It has also supported China's actions in the Tiananmen Square protests of 1989 [1].

According to the National Review, the group has defended dictators that the United States government has disapproved of, such as Slobodan Milosevic [1] and Saddam Hussein, and has been accused of anti-Semitism.
