New Alliance Party : ウィキペディア英語版 | New Alliance Party
The New Alliance Party (NAP) was an American political party formed in New York City in 1979. Its immediate precursor was an umbrella organization known as the Labor Community Alliance for Change, whose member groups included the coalition of Grass Roots Women and the New York City Unemployed and Welfare Council. All of these groups were associated with controversial psychologist and political activist Fred Newman, whose radical health care collective Centers for Change and Marxist International Workers Party were active in grassroots politics in New York City. The NAP's first chairperson was then-South Bronx City Councilman Gilberto Gerena-Valentin, a veteran Puerto Rican political activist. (). The party is notable for getting African American psychologist Lenora Fulani on the ballot in all 50 states during her first Presidential campaign in 1988, making her both the first African-American and woman to do so. ==Background and ideas== From 1974 to 1979, Newman had acquired some experience in politics in managing the International Workers Party. The New Alliance Party was founded as an electoral party that was independent of Democrats and Republicans and that could create "new alliances" of groups marginalized by the American electoral process, namely people of color, the lesbian and gay community, progressives, and women. The New Alliance Party described itself as "pro-socialist."
