Puerto Rican Socialist League (LSP), which was a small but influential cadre group focused on reorienting the independence movement toward revolutionary Marxism. With exceptions like Corretjer and his wife (Dona Consuela Lee Corretjer, a veteran of the Communist Party of Puerto Rico), the LSP was largely populated with younger people, products of the Puerto Rican new left who viewed themselves as internationalists. The LSP also strove to develop ties with revolutionary elements in the growing Puerto Rican communities across North America including the Young Lords in Chicago and New York in the late 1960's and the Movimiento de Liberacion Nacional (MLN), a like-minded cadre organization formed in Chicago in 1977.
