Freedom, Socialism and Revolution (Portuguese: Liberdade, Socialismo e Revolução) is a Trotskyist political organisation in Brazil, created in 2009 by the fusion of Socialismo Revolucionário (Revolutionary Socialism) and Colectivo Liberdade Socialista (Socialist Liberty Collective).[1] LSR is an active tendency of the Socialism and Liberty Party (PSOL)[2] and the Brazilian section of the Committee for a Workers' International.[3]
LSR members are active on several fronts, including schools, factories, non-industrial workplaces, and neighbourhoods, organizing against government abuses. They are active in the mass organizations of the working class and the youth, in the trade unions, in the Conlutas union confederation, workplace associations, student unions and school entities, defending the unification of struggles and linking immediate demands and struggles with the general struggle against capitalism.
