Following timely agreements and invitation to all party comrades, we held our fall meeting via teleconference on Saturday 28 and Sunday 29 September 2024.

As is the custom of communists, all the work was carried out in an active atmosphere of understanding and help among comrades, engaged in a great task that we know goes far beyond our modest persons. Our only personal greatness lies in the awareness of our smallness, in the face of social material forces and their codified opposing historical programs. The function of the living structure of the Party is to preserve and defend the faith and science of communism and present it to the class, permanently in struggle against the dying enemy world.

In the preparatory session on Saturday, after the introduction by the center, the comrades and sections reported on the activity carried out in the previous months: the study and collective understanding of our doctrine and its applications; the regularity and scope of the meetings, from those of the sections to the international Party meetings; the channels and methods of the close working relationships between comrades, sections and the center; the difficult intervention in workers’ struggles; the tools for proselytizing and its results; translations into different languages; the editing, printing and distribution of periodicals; the contributions to the website; the financial support to the organization.

From the report of the Noth America section

We investigated how the Party has performed in the past and presented to the section meetings an outline of work for the future. We sought that all comrades have a basic idea of how we carry out different activities, supporting each other in exchanging the necessary skills, making more than one available for any organizational needs: translations (to which all are called), site management, newspaper, dissemination and proselytizing.

All comrades are invited to strengthen themselves as writers, propagandists, agitators, organizers, managers, editors, and in the necessary technical skills.

The editorial work to produce “The Internationale Communist Party” is developing. We managed to print and distribute issue 59 (a month late), taking ownership of the whole process from start to finish. With more experience we will be able to give ourselves more defined systems and time frames, made transparent to all comrades. Young and old will work together on editing and layout. The work for the paper was discussed in section meetings.

For distribution, in the Party, to subscribers and bookstores, a special address book is maintained, the updating of which is entrusted to two comrades.

The comrades all feel strongly united by our doctrine, program and method, committed to continuous work for the Party, in the service of the great and final proletarian revolution for communism.

From the treasurer’s report, post and website:
