Workers Party (U.S.) - Youth Organizations

Youth Organizations

The organization created a youth section, the Socialist Youth League in 1946. After the merger of a number of a group from the Young Peoples Socialist League in the early 1950s, including Michael Harrington, it renamed itself the Young Socialist League. They merged back with the YPSL at about the same time as the adult organization was merging with the SP-SDF in August 1958. A group led by Tim Wohlworth did not approve of this merger and joined the SWP affiliated Young Socialist Alliance.

Famous quotes containing the word youth:

    Call the bald man, “Boy;” make the sage thy toy;
    Greet the youth with solemn face; praise the fat man for his grace.
