El Comite

El Comité, or MINP, was a militant organization that sought to integrate the Puerto Rican community in United States into the struggle for Socialism in America as well as raising awareness of and support for the struggle for Puerto Rico’s independence from America. It began a transition from El Comite (a community based mass organization) to MINP - Movimiento de Izquierda Nacional Puertorriquena (a movement guided by the principles of Marxism–Leninism) in 1975. The organization defined itself as the Revolutionary Left current within the broad range of political tendencies that existed within the Puerto Rican community living in the United States. It sought to create a unified multinational-multiracial Revolutionary Political Movement in America and gain the support of the Puertorriquen National Minority in the United States for this political movement. Together with several other organizations, it was one of several Pro-Puertorriquen Independence organizations that formed at a time when the United States was coming under increasing international condemnation for holding onto the world's oldest colony.
