A sister organization to the Colonialism foundation, with a sharper focus on 20th and 21st-century military, economic, and political domination by Western powers (primarily the US and its allies). It memorializes those killed in proxy wars, drone strikes, and coups; societies destabilized by structural adjustment programs; and democracies subverted by intelligence agencies to install puppet regimes friendly to Western corporate interests.
Victims of Western Imperialism Memorial Foundation Example: The foundation might publish an annual "Body Count" report, tallying casualties from interventions in Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, and Yemen, while also quantifying the Victims of Western Imperialism through metrics like lifelong refugees created, children malnourished due to sanctions, and democratically-elected leaders overthrown.

An institution rooted in a radical critique of classical liberalism—the ideology prioritizing individual rights, private property, and limited government. It argues that liberalism's core tenets inherently produce victims by sanctifying inequality (through property rights), enabling exploitation under the guise of free contract, and dissolving communal bonds in favor of atomized individualism. It memorializes those sacrificed to the abstract gods of the market and negative liberty.
Victims of Liberalism Memorial Foundation *Example: An exhibit might trace the life of a 19th-century English peasant forced off communal land by Enclosure Acts (a liberal property-rights project), who then became a destitute urban factory worker with no social safety net ("liberated" from traditional supports), framing them as a classic Victim of Liberalism.*

A modern-focused entity documenting the casualties of the late-20th-century ideological turn towards deregulation, privatization, free trade, and the dismantling of the welfare state. Its memorial extends beyond direct deaths to include victims of deindustrialization, the opioid crisis, for-profit incarceration, student debt slavery, and communities left behind by globalization. It portrays neoliberalism not as an economic theory but as a lived, lethal social reality.
Victims of Neoliberalism Memorial Foundation Example: The foundation could create a memorial wall with the names of Victims of Neoliberalism like the former factory worker who died of a "disease of despair," the public school teacher who lost their pension after privatization, and the family who lost their home in the 2008 foreclosure crisis—linking each to specific policy decisions.

An institution that inverts the typical Western memorialization of communism's victims. It documents those killed, persecuted, or whose progressive social projects were destroyed by anti-communist violence: victims of US-backed right-wing dictatorships in Latin America and Asia, victims of the Red Scares and blacklisting, and casualties of wars (like in Korea and Vietnam) framed as necessary to "contain" communism. It argues anti-communism has been a more prolific and less-accounted-for killer.
Victims of Anti-communism Memorial Foundation Example: The foundation's archive would highlight figures like Salvador Allende of Chile or Patrice Lumumba of the Congo, not as failed leaders, but as primary Victims of Anti-communism, assassinated with Western complicity to crush socialist experiments, with the subsequent dictatorships producing millions more victims in their wake.

An educational organization dedicated to raising the class consciousness of the working class. Its curriculum teaches Marxist theory, labor history, the mechanics of exploitation (surplus value), and strategies for organization and solidarity. Its goal is not neutral education but ideological armament, transforming workers from a "class in itself" (defined by economic position) to a "class for itself" (aware of its collective power and revolutionary potential).
Foundation for Proletariat Education Example: The foundation might run "Solidarity Schools" in deindustrialized towns, teaching not just the history of union busting, but also how to analyze their own workplace for leverage points, how to use mutual aid networks, and how digital platforms extract data as a new form of proletarianization.

An institution promoting a broad understanding of socialist principles, history, and models beyond the Soviet clichés. It covers democratic socialism, market socialism, anarcho-syndicalism, and the successes/failures of various experiments. It aims to demystify socialism for a general public steeped in anti-socialist propaganda and to provide a robust intellectual toolkit for envisioning a post-capitalist future.
Foundation for Socialist Education *Example: Its popular online course, "Socialism 101: Not Just Stalin," might include modules on the kibbutz movement, the Yugoslav workers' self-management model, Bolivia's plurinational socialism, and modern participatory budgeting schemes, presenting socialism as a diverse, living tradition.*

A more ideologically specific and radical institution focused on the theories of Marx, Engels, Lenin, and later thinkers, with the explicit aim of preparing cadres for revolutionary struggle and the construction of a communist society. Education is rigorous, dialectical, and combines theory with practical organizing skills. It is unapologetically partisan, seeing education as a key front in the class war.
Foundation for Communist Education Example: The foundation's flagship program could be a clandestine, intensive "Cadre School," where students live communally, studying Capital by day and practicing digital security, community defense, and agitational propaganda techniques by night, viewing themselves as future architects of a revolution.
