New Communist Movement

Das New Communist Movement (NCM) (Neue Kommunistische Bewegung) war eine kommunistische Organisation, die in den 1970er und 1980er Jahren vor allem in den Vereinigten Staaten entstand. Die NCM war eine Bewegung der Neuen Linken mit vielen Gruppierungen von Marxisten-Leninisten^[1] und Maoisten, die von den kubanischen, chinesischen und vietnamesischen Revolutionen inspiriert waren.^[2] Wichtige Themen waren der Widerstand gegen Rassismus und Sexismus, die Solidarität mit den unterdrückten Völkern der Dritten Welt und die Errichtung des Sozialismus durch eine Volksrevolution.^[3] Nach Angaben des NCM-Aktivisten Max Elbaum hatte die Bewegung auf ihrem Höhepunkt schätzungsweise 10.000 Kadermitglieder.^[4]
