Not that I even know that much about them but stay away from CPUSA. Any "revolutionary" party that backs the democrats is not revolutionary at all.

If by revolution you're talking about overthrowing government by force, there are loads of such organisations who wish to use the state to tame or control capitalism with varying degrees of workers control of the industry and economy.
If however, by revolutionary transformation of society, you are talking about doing away with the price mechanism and the wage system, there is very few, one of which is The World Socialist Party of the United States (http://wspus.org/).

More and more young people are coming to the same conclusion as you. There is a radical left and there are a number orforganizations who see the need for revolutionary change.These organisations are small but they are growing.

The CPUSA is not considered a revolutionary organization by anyone including themselves. Revolutionaries see the need to break from the corrupt two party system. It is especially important to break from the Democrats and the "politics of lesser evilism"."The Dems suck but at least they are not as bad as the Republicans".This thinking is dis-empowering and preserves the status quo.Its what the ruling class wants us to think.

We need a system which allows people to take democratic control of the economy.We need socialism.Socialism is the self liberation of the working class.

Many posters on Revleft are in organizations working for this. It wouldn't be appropriate to recommend a specific organization in this thread. Read up as much as you can, find a poster you like who is in a group and PM them.

Socialism is also the worldwide liberation of the working class. 'America' only needs change in so far as it needs to be destroyed, along with every other country. The world needs change. Capitalism is a system that spans, and blights, the whole world, and the response to it needs to be worldwide - world revolution of the international working class.

The Workers Party in America is definitely one of the better parties to my knowledge, at least judging from the politics of their members and sympathisers here on revleft.
