Building a South Asian Left
We are a South Asian political organization based in New York City that draws on the traditions of revolutionary Marxism. We are building a pan-South Asian socialist and anti-caste politics that engages with ongoing struggles in the region, through our work with progressive organizations and movements in South Asia and beyond.
OUR MISSION
We envision our mission as:
Strengthening the struggles of working-class South Asians in the diaspora;
Strengthening the broader American left; and
Supporting emancipatory and left movements within, across, and beyond South Asia.
We view capitalism as fundamentally intertwined with systems of oppression including racism, patriarchy, caste, ableism, colonialism, environmental destruction, and religious and ethnic majoritarianism. We support struggles for racial, gender, disability, caste, and environmental justice; oppose policing, prisons, imperialism, and ethnonationalism; and advocate for transformative justice, Indigenous sovereignty, anti-colonial liberation, and the self-determination of oppressed and working people.
Our current mission spans three areas: local organizing, cadrefying, and international solidarity. LEARN MORE ABOUT OUR VALUES, MISSION, AND ONGOING WORK HERE.
