I introduced myself to two curious young women on Arizona State University’s campus. I said the RCA is building a working-class party committed to the overthrow of capitalism and the establishment of a workers’ government.

Neither of them saw a future under capitalism. I explained that a Communist America is only possible, but beautiful. When I showed them the centerfold of The Communist issue 16, they both bought a copy!

Another student walked up, saying he was interested in communism. I asked why. He said that the system is heading towards a revolution—but there wasn’t any organization to lead it.

I was ecstatic! I showed him our program, and he described it as a “breath of fresh air!” He shifted to talking about the 2024 election: “It was disgusting. They keep making it a left and right issue when it’s not. The people need organization!”

Naturally, he’s coming to our next communist cell meeting!
