Info | Teresa Gutierrez has been a communist political organizer for her entire adult life. She later moved to New York to become a full-time activist in the Workers World Party. Over the years, she has also been active in the leadership of many of the WWP's various political front groups such as International ANSWER (Co-Director) and the International Peace for Cuba Appeal, and is also a powerful member of the WWP's Secretariat (governing board of the WWP National Committee). She has travelled to repeatedly to Cuba, Haiti, Venezuela, and elsewhere ("countries targeted by CIA subversion and Pentagon aggression") over the years to denounce US "imperialism" and "express solidarity" with Marxist forces. In her various published remarks, Gutierrez speaks like an old-style Leninist. She refers to business owners as "capitalist pigs" and corporate globalization as "bloodsucking, murderous imperialism." Gutierrez advocates a changed through armed uprising instead of elections, calling on the workers to "seize" control. "We have a duty to turn this [the US] -- the headquarters of imperialism -- into the center of revolutionary gravity," she explained. FYI: Gutierrez -- like the WWP's previous Presidential nominee -- is also an out lesbian.
