Ex-IWP.org
is an informational website on the International Workers
Party (IWP) and its various front groups (aka the Tendency,
the Organization, All Stars Project, Inc., Castillo Cultural
Center, East Side Center, Institute for Short-Term Social Therapy,
Committee for a Unified Independent Party (CUIP), Performance
of a Lifetime, Otto Rene Cultural Awards, Performing the World,
New Alliance Party (NAP), Rainbow Lobby, Ross & Green,
Centers for Change, "If ... Then," among others). The
IWP is an insular organization founded and led by a controversial, NYC-based philospher, Fred Newman.
Journalists and former members often describe Newman's tendency
as a destructive political/therapy cult.
