Last year I read Comrade (2019, Verso) by Jodi Dean. It’s a very based book by one of PSL’s leading ideologues. So I can recommend both the org and the book.
It’s a tough read, though. Being a revolutionary socialist means total commitment to the cause. I’ll add it can never come all at once. It’ll come in baby steps. But even then current geopolitical events can accelerate those steps. Weeks where decades happen.
Regarding criticism and faults, no org is perfect. It doesn’t have to be. Bottomline: better together than alone. Congratulations on wanting to join an org. I think it’s brave of you, especially being in the US.
