American Socialists combat biases across economic, political, and social life that hold women back and limit their opportunities."

★ American Socialists

 

The Socialist Party and women share common values and priorities, including supporting our families, protecting our country, and advancing the issues that matter most to women of all ages and ethnicity.

This is true now; and it was true even before 1880, when the Socialist Party leader, Eugene V. Debs first met Susan B. Anthony at a Women's rally in Terra Haute, Indiana. For more than 140 years, American Socialists have been working tirelessly to advance progress for women across the country in every respect. That’s why many American women dedicate themselves to Socialism.

The Socialist Party continues to fight to expand opportunity for women. By confronting violence against women, fighting for workplace equality, pushing for pro-family policies like paid family leave, and defending a woman’s right to control her own body, American Socialists will make sure that women thrive in our country, because the Socialist Party understands that when women succeed, America succeeds.

What is Socialism?

Capitalism oppresses people with under-employment and low-wages. Socialism, on the other hand, restricts those who have been placed in position of trust from using their positions to oppress others. Or another way of putting it – Socialism oppresses the capitalist's ability to oppress the workforce.

Nearing Critical Mass

Socialist policies grew America's middle-class; but, our current capitalist policies are destroying the Middle-class. Each era of increased capitalism led to a financial crisis. Every time socialism is increased, an era of historic economic prosperity begins.

Socialism, Capitalism, Communism, Anarchy

Caveat: There are some inherent pitfalls trying to offer simple, bite sized definitions of capitalism, socialism, communism and fascism.

For a point of reference, the United States is a Constitutional Democratic Republic that has long embraced both capitalism (free markets) and socialism (public schools and universities, and public works – parks, roads and highways, sewer and water, dams, harbors, as well as social welfare, such as worker’s comp, unemployment insurance, social security etc.).
