Fundraising picnic ticket for Nat’l Workers Org. convention: 1977

The Baltimore, Md. And Washington, D.C. Organizing Committees for a National Workers Organization ticket for a July 17, 1977 picnic fundraiser at Greenbriar State Park in Maryland.

The Organizing Committee was organized by the Revolutionary Communist Party, a group was formed as the protest movement of the 1960s and early 1970s began to ebb. The RCP grew out of the Revolutionary Union and upheld Marxism-Leninism-Mao Zedong Thought at its 1975 founding.

The United Workers Organization was modeled after the Communist Party’s 1920s-30s Trade Union Educational (later Unity) League.

It sought to act as a vehicle for advanced workers who were not communists. A number of local workplace organizations, caucuses within unions and independent workers newspapers joined in the September 1977 convention held in Chicago.

However, the United National Workers Organization did not survive the 1978 split within the Revolutionary Communist Party that paralleled the split in the leadership within the People’s Republic of China between the “Gang of Four” and the rest of the Chinese Communist Party central committee.
