Young Communist League
In 2005 Matt Murtagh was a Brooklyn member[2]of the Young Communist League USA.
- I joined the YCL in June, 2003, shortly after the invasion of Iraq. I chose to join the YCL for a number of reasons, including its large, and vocal, presence at the huge February 15 and March 22 antiwar demonstrations in New York, its long and illustrious history, and its ties to the Communist Party, USA. My primary reason for joining, however, was that the YCL spoke to my experiences, and reflected my own feelings and thoughts regarding public education, youth empowerment, labor and community activism, social justice, equality, and democracy. In joining the YCL, I knew that I would be taking part in the struggle for a more just world.
In 2006 Matt Murtagh, a student at Georgetown University attended[3]the Young Communist League USA 8th National Convention, held May 27-29 in Brooklyn, New York.
