The revolt of lesbians and gay men against sexual repression and sex-role stereotyping is a key ingredient of the fight for women's equality and is equally revolutionary. Revolutionary socialism is the logical road for sexual minorities who stand apart from the bourgeois nuclear family and who wish to end the long, bloody centuries of persecution and terror. Because of their special oppression, lesbians are a particularly militant component of all social movements. We demand a world where all people have the inalienable right to security, care, love, and unhampered opportunity and growth. The world's natural riches must be used and safeguarded by the people, not by the corporations who exhaust resourcess for profit and destroy worker safety and health.
Nuclear energy threatens to maim or annihilate future generations.
Technology must be used wisely and humanely to preserve the earth and its creatures. The FSP, a product of the living tradition of Marx, Engels, Lenin, and Trotsky, aspires to become a mass organization capable of providing direction for the coming American revolution. Through independent growth, revolutionary regroupment, and other forms of fusion, we are confident of our eventual merger with the dynamic masses who will sweep every obstacle out of their path and ascend to the socialist future.
