American Christians Toward Socialism
Historical Note
This is the local chapter of a national organization. In their brochure, American Christians Toward
Socialism describe those who join as "people who come from the Christian tradition of active
involvement in social concerns and have become convinced that Socialism is the necessary
economic and political framework for beginning to deal with the fundamental human problems of
our time." ACTS provides support "a) by insisting on critical reflection by the grouop as a whole;
and b) by mobilizing one another for effective action."
