To:     Revolutionary Marxists
From:   Joseph Green, editor, Communist Voice
February 23, 1996

     Neil recently sent me various polemics against Marxism. They came with a
list of addresses it was sent to, including you. I presume that the people on
this list won't mind receiving another message about Marxism. So in case
you're interested, I'd thought I send you the following announcement.

                         COMMUNIST VOICE ENTERS 1996

     Vol. 2, #1 (issue #6) of Communist Voice appeared earlier this year. It
has 63 pages (not counting the blank last page) and is dated 15 January 1996.
     It has the following articles:

     * Lead: Who are the communists?

     * Balance-sheet of two years of work

throws up its hands
     * The report of the Boston group on its lack of activity -- 17 July 1995

the conservative government
     * Striking Boeing workers stand up to concessions
     * Tough road ahead for striking Detroit newspaper workers

MARXISM VERSUS ANARCHISM:
     * Ideology of the "5th Estate" (a Detroit anarchist magazine): Bakuninism
-- backward politics under the guise of no politics
     * The 5th Estate curses communism
     * Reply: huffing and puffing won't eliminate the capitalist marketplace
     * The Insurgency Culture Collective discusses the future society
     * Reply: does barter eliminate money, does small-group ownership
eliminate the capitalist marketplace?

comrades in Chicago about our agitation in the anti-war movement
     * Julie (Chicago Workers' Voice) criticizes WA agitation on the war
     * Appeal to soldiers of all the belligerent countries, by V.I. Lenin

CORRESPONDENCE:
     * Alferitz on Communist Voice #3 and #4

     * Reply: State capitalism and land reform

     "Communist Voice" is the successor to the "Workers' Advocate". It
continues the anti-revisionist cause to which the WA was dedicated. The WA was
founded in 1969 with the aim of rebuilding a genuine communist party in this
country. For a quarter of a century, it firmly opposed the pro-Soviet
"Communist" Party and other opportunist organizations as revisionist
travesties of Marxism and betrayers of the cause of the working class. It was
always the paper of a communist organization, and from 1980 to 1993 was the
national voice of the Marxist-Leninist Party. From 1985 on, it also had a
theoretical supplement. In November 1993, the Fifth Congress of the MLP
dissolved the party and killed the WA. The Communist Voice Organization stems
from those comrades who opposed the demoralization of the Fifth Congress
majority and hold that only anti-revisionist communism can lead to the renewal
of the working class movement. The Communist Voice continues, in a different
form, with fewer resources, and with more focus on the theoretical task, the
struggle of the WA to contribute to the organization of a revolutionary
proletarian party.
