Two Marxist-Leninist newspapers, Getting Together (published by I Wor Kuen) and Revolutionary Cause (published by the August 29th Movement), are in the process of merging, according to announcements in the June issues of both newspapers.

The announcement says that until the merger is finalized, both organizations “will be building and distributing Getting Together.”

Both ATM and IWK have participated in joint discussions with the CPML, aimed at establishing a Committee to Unite Marxist-Leninists. The struggle to establish this committee represents part of the growing unity trend of the Marxist-Leninists, who share a common desire for a single, unified Party.

The merger of Revolutionary Cause and Getting Together is a step in the development of this unity trend. The ATM-IWK statement noted that “we view our growing unity within the context of the growing unity of Marxist-Leninists internationally and within the U.S. and see this as another step on the road to Marxist-Leninist unity.”
