Party of Communists USA

The Peoples School for Marxist Leninist Studies was initiated by and is sponsored by the Party of Communists USA, but it is not the Party School, which allows a wide variety of perspectives to be brought forward and discussed which don’t necessarily reflect the party line. If you’re interested in the Party of Communists USA, please click the button below and visit their website! Many PCUSA members attend our classes and have a wealth of knowledge and experience to learn from.

About us

The Peoples School for Marxist-Leninist Studies is part of a long line of American communist party sponsored schools, such as the Workers Schools, the Jefferson School of Social Science, the Center for Marxist Education and the Peoples School for Marxist Studies. We were founded in 2016, and have come a long way from classes on conference calls to professional weekly virtual classes, and will continue striving to bring Marxist-Leninist education to the masses. The classes cost nothing and the knowledge is worth everything!

We hold classes online every week on Tuesdays at 8 pm EST/5 pm PST. These are public classes on Zoom that are organized into sections of presentations, and discussion periods. Join our classes and participate in collective education! We also hold monthly staff meetings, open to the public, every 1st Thursday of the month at 7 pm EST/4 pm PST, which are also open to public and are the place for volunteering, feedback, ideas, etc.

Women Communists: Then and Now – PSMLS Class
This class is a presentation from the Black Liberation Commission of the PCUSA on Henry Winston’s “Strategy for a Black Agenda.“ The principal focus of the book is a trenchant Marxist-Leninist analysis of neo-Pan-Africanism and Maoism. The similarities of the two ideologies as bourgeois nationalist trends are clearly exposed. Race, instead of class analysis of world events, separatism as opposed to unity, and fanatical anti-Sovietism, are the hallmarks revealing their reactionary essence.

The PSMLS presents a class on the 79th Anniversary of the Liberation of Auschwitz, featuring Professor Barry Lituchy, Director of the Jasenovac Research Institute. The Jasenovac Research Institute was founded on the belief that the failure to learn the lessons of the genocide committed against Serbs, Jews and Gypsies during the Second World War rests at the very core of recent events in the Balkans.
