What We Stand For

The Communist Party of Indiana CPUSA struggles for socialism: to better the lives of Indiana's working families, to protect and extend labor's ability to organize, for the needs of women, children, immigrants (documented and undocumented), the disabled, LGBT, and all people who strive for affordable quality health care, housing, and education. We stand against racism in all its forms. We stand for jobs for all. We stand for peace. We support all who struggle world wide for the dignity and self-determination of the majority of their nation's people and against imperialism, occupation, and exploitation for private profit.

100 Days to Close Guantanemo & End Torture Campaign




United for Peace and Justice (UFPJ) and Witness Against Torture - a Catholic Worker led UFPJ member group - are co-sponsoring the 100 Days to Close Guantanemo & End Torture Campaign, marking the seventh year of the US use of Guantanemo as a detention and torture center.

From January 11th to January 20th, 2009, there will be a Prisoner Procession and Fast for Justice in Washington DC. January 11th is the anniversary of the opening of the Guantanemo facility.

On January 20th through April 30th, 2009, there will be a sustained presence at the White House, film screenings, community meetings, and creative actions taking place throughout Washington DC. In this same time period communities across the country are encouraged to organize events designed to mobilize people concerned about the torture and illegal detention at the US facilitiy at Guantanemo.

Please consider participating in this worthy campaign.
