The Revolutionary Communist Party, USA (also known as RCP, The Revcoms, or Revcom) is a communist party in the United States led by Bob Avakian. Founded in 1975, the RCP has its origins in the New Communist movement of the 1960s-70s. The party organizes for a revolution to overthrow capitalism and replace it with a socialist state, with the final aim of world communism.^[1] The RCP is frequently described as a cult around Avakian.^[2]^[3]^[4]
