The Partisan is a new publication launched by revolutionary workers, activists and organizers in the United States for the purpose of centralizing and publicizing the reports, texts and general news of our struggles and other issues relevant to the multinational US working class. For too long, despite the growing unity of revolutionary organizations in the US, our writing and media production has been scattered and “silo-ed” in our different areas and sectors. This has meant that to keep up with all the activity occurring nationally, someone would have to follow literally dozens of different social media accounts, websites, and publications. Our sectoral publications still play a key theoretical and practical role, but there has come a time for a unified revolutionary news service that can take up the task of centralizing and sharing the great mass of revolutionary activity going around the country.

Why choose the name Partisan? We chose this name for the title of our publication because a partisan is a “strong supporter” of a cause, someone who is willing to fight for what they believe in. It is our belief and mission at The Partisan that the writers and readers of our publication should be partisans of our class, partisans of our revolution. That we must never be passive observers of the struggles around us, but active participants in them, people who are willing to fight for our collective interests and for the revolutionary cause of the workers and oppressed nations of the world.

We at The Partisan invite all those who are real partisans of our class, the modern working class, and our cause, socialist revolution, to reach out to us to get in touch, get connected, and get involved. To make the jump from supporter to partisan!
