International Peoples’ Assembly: Building a New Global Movement Against Capitalism & For Socialism

The International People's Assembly: Building a Global Movement Against Imperialism, Capitalism, Patriarchy, and Racism

The International People's Assembly (IPA) is a global network of movements, organizations, unions, and parties that aims to build a global movement against imperialism, capitalism, patriarchy, and racism. Over the past five years, the IPA has worked to organize global days of action, recognizing that the root causes of injustices in different communities are fundamentally the same. By uniting diverse organizations, the IPA seeks to confront the shared global actors perpetuating these injustices. The IPA emphasizes the importance of internationalism, advocating for solidarity and unity among movements across regions. Building on historical lessons, the IPA acknowledges that there isn't one path to socialism and encourages respect for regional differences and paths towards revolution. Additionally, the IPA recognizes the urgent need to address climate catastrophe, highlighting the inability of capitalism to solve environmental crises caused by its inherent need for profit. The IPA aims to mobilize and engage youth, combating demobilization efforts by capitalism through diverse avenues of political involvement, such as protests, cultural activities, and community organizing. The IPA emphasizes the importance of the battle of ideas, promoting open dialogue and welcoming diverse perspectives to build a collective synthesis and articulating the vision of socialism as a viable alternative to the current systems of oppression. Looking ahead, the IPA plans to organize days of anti-imperialist action in various regions, uniting organizations and individuals to confront imperialism in each specific context. To get involved with the IPA, individuals can visit their website, join local IPA chapters, and participate in the organization's events and campaigns.
