The Communist Party of Georgia, known more commonly as CPUSA Georgia and also known as the Georgian Communist Party, is a state affiliate of the Communist Party USA (CPUSA) based in Georgia. Following the lead of the national CPUSA, CPUSA Georgia adheres to the principles of Marxism–Leninism and is currently a participant in the anti-Trump movement.[1]

The height of the Communist Party of Georgia occurred during the Great Depression when Angelo Herndon served as the primary leading figure of the American labor movement within Georgia. Following World War II, McCarthyism and the Cold War ultimately destroyed the Georgian Communist movement by 1958.[2] The movement has since reemerged in Georgia, however.

CPUSA Georgia has often clashed with other third parties based in Georgia, notably the Libertarian Party of Georgia (LPGA). Former Chairman of CPUSA Sam Webb once came to the University of Georgia (UGA) on behalf of CPUSA Georgia to debate against LPGA.[3][citation needed]

History

Rise and split of the Socialists

Entering the 20th century, the People's Party collapsed. Many of its members followed Eugene V. Debs into the SPA and the People's Party of Georgia merged into the Socialist Party of Georgia.[4][unreliable source?] Watson refused to join the SPA and became a Democrat,[5] although he later collaborated with the Socialist Party in opposing World War I.[6]

Following the Russian Revolution and the birth of Marxism–Leninism in the Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic, a split began to brew within the SPA. The factions were similar to the Bolsheviks and the Mensheviks within the pre-Russian Revolution Russian Social Democratic Labour Party. In 1919, the Bolshevik faction of the Socialist Party officially split and formed the Communist Party of the United States.
