    Organizational structure: International Action Center (IAC) organization Last updated: March 4, 2020 Overview Staffed by members of the Workers World Party, a Marxist-Leninist vanguard Founded by former Attorney General Ramsey Clark Founded in 1992 by Ramsey Clark, the International Action Center (IAC) is a fiercely “anti-capitalist and anti-imperialist” organization that provides “information, activism & resistance to U.S. militarism, war & corporate greed” while supporting “struggles against racism & oppression within the United States.” Closely allied with the the Marxist-Leninist Workers World Party, IAC aims to “end human suffering caused by living under a [capitalist] system that puts profit before people’s needs” — a system whose hallmarks include “multi-national corporations and banks” that “extract resources and debt payments from the rest of the world” while “the Pentagon and CIA protect their wholesale plunder.” Claiming that America victimizes and oppresses nonwhite minorities both at home and overseas, IAC maintains that “the best way to fight U.S. imperialism abroad is to stand in full solidarity with people of color living within U.S. borders.” Toward that end, the Center aims to form a “progressive movement” in service of a broad coalition of victim groups whose “struggles” are purportedly “connect[ed].” These include “communities of color, women, lesbian, gay, bi and trans people, youth and students, immigrant and workers’ organizations in order to build a progressive movement for social justice and change.”
