RADICAL ORGANIZATION OF STUDENTS IN AMSTERDAM

We are a Marxist organisation at universities in Amsterdam.

"Tomorrow the revolution will 'rise up again, clashing its weapons, and to your horror, it will proclaim with trumpets blazing: I was, I am, I shall be!" - Rosa Luxemburg

We are against all forms of discrimination.
We see capitalism as inherently exploitative and at the root of oppression in society.
Reform is not enough, we need to change the sytem as a whole.
Capitalism is composed of an exploiter and exploited class; overcoming capitalism requires class struggle.
We are anti-imperialist, we oppose war-mongering, profiteering, foreign meddling, and military interventions.
We are internationalists, we stand in solidarity with all oppressed peoples in the struggle against capitalism, imperialism and (neo-)colonialism.
We are marxist feminists.

ROSA'S STRATEGY

The youth will play a decisive role in the creation of a classless society. While the current generation of workers can dismantle capitalism and establish the foundations for a socialist order, it is the youth who will construct a society free of exploitation.

To achieve this, education must be reclaimed from the bourgeois system, which conditions students to serve capitalist interests rather than develop revolutionary consciousness. Universities separate theory from practice, producing passive intellectuals rather than active agents of change. We want to bridge this gap, cultivating both a deep understanding of class struggle and the practical ability to organize and mobilize.

Different dimensions of oppression such as racism, xenophobia, sexism, ableism, homophobia, and transphobia can be fought in unity against the capitalist system, the main driver of such forms of subjugation.

Hence, this is our strategy:

Develop class consciousness and Marxist political education within universities.

Organize students as an active force in the proletarian struggle.

Reject the passive, bourgeois model of education and cultivate critical, dialectical thinking resulting in revolutionary praxis.

Build solidarity between workers internationally and their specific struggles, to join forces in the fight against imperialism and capitalism.

Empower each other to become political organizers, so that we can carry the class struggle elsewhere and in our futures.
