Editing Socialist Workers Party

The '''Socialist Workers Party''' (SWP) is a political party in the [[United States]] which claims to follow [[Trotskyism|Trotskyist]] and [[Fidel Castro|Castroist]]. It was founded in 1938 as one of the founding parties of the [[Fourth International|Fourth International (FI)]] of [[Leon Trotsky]]. The SWP was created by a group of Trotskyists who were expelled from the [[Communist Party USA|Communist Party USA (CPUSA)]] including James P. Cannon, and Max Shachtman (who later became a forebear to the [[Neoconservative]] movement).


The Socialist Workers Party has evolved into various directions since the days of Leon Trotsky. It has a pro-[[Cuba]] and pro-[[DPRK]] position that is unusual for a Trotskyist organization. However it is a defender of a [[two state solution]] for [[Palestine]], as well as having the state department line on [[Russian Federation|Russia]]. However they have been outspoken about opposing wokeness and the [[Democratic Party]], [https://themilitant.com/2021/12/18/found-not-guilty-by-jury-rittenhouse-still-faces-attacks-on-his-political-rights/ including an article defending Kyle Rittenhouse].
