Black Socialists in America[a] (BSA) is an American socialist political group that organizes predominantly among black working-class people and whose stated goal is to create a national platform and network for those who identify as Black American socialists.[3]
Since its foundation, the group has worked on grassroots initiatives with organizations across the country,[4][5] received national media coverage[6] and an endorsement from Noam Chomsky.[7]
The group has also hosted a number of public panels and discussions featuring both civil rights era and radical black leaders such as Jamal Joseph.[8] Members of the group acting on behalf of the organization have also been represented in a number of other lectures or interviews done by figures such as economist Richard D. Wolff,[9] and television networks like Free Speech TV.[10]
