FRSO seems good on most things, but supports "upholding past treaties" with native Americans, which is somewhat of a red flag. PSL seems good but I've heard claims that they're not that good on the settler colonial issue either and lack proper democratic centralist structure. I don't know much about the WWP, but their 15 point programm doesn't mention landback at all. I know next to nothing about the other socialist parties/orgs on the US, so I can't give my opinion on them

    I think you're a bit confused about FRSO's line. It's extensively documented here: https://frso.org/main-documents/immediate-demands-for-u-s-colonies-indigenous-peoples-and-oppressed-nationalities/

    We support the full sovereignty of all oppressed nations within the US

    1. Full Sovereignty and National Development for Indigenous Peoples! The United States is based on theft of land, genocide, and destruction of culture of the Alaskan Native, Native American, and Native Hawaiian peoples. Today indigenous peoples have the highest rates of poverty, the poorest health care and housing, and the least education in the United States. Stereotyping and commercialization of their culture and continued loss of land are commonplace. The FRSO supports:

      Full sovereignty for Alaskan Natives, Native Americans, and Native Hawaiians. This includes upholding past treaties and abolishing the Bureau of Indian Affairs, and the exercise of local political power. The right to national development. In the current period, this includes gaming and especially the return of indigenous peoples’ land and natural resources to make their sovereign areas economically viable. Protection for indigenous peoples’ traditions and culture, including full equality of languages, support for indigenous education, and an end to stereotyping and exploitation of their culture.

    I recently wrote up my thoughts on FRSO as an org, if anyone is curious, here

      Like most things with FRSO, this is extremely close to the PSL position:

      The existing colonial relationships of the United States will be dissolved. The independence of Puerto Rico will be immediately recognized, with full reparations for colonial exploitation, and the right of free travel between the U.S. and Puerto Rico. Samoa, Guam, the Virgin Islands and Mariana Islands will be free to exercise their right to self-determination, up to and including independence, with reparations and the right to free travel between the former colonies and the U.S. mainland. Restitution, including the return of land stolen, will be provided for Native Nations. Further, the socialist government will reaffirm the right of Native Nations to self-determination, up to and including independence. It will honor more than 300 currently-existing treaties with Native nations that have been violated or ignored by the capitalist state — an important starting point for undoing the legacies of settler colonialism.

      FRSO also views the US as having internal countries being (imperialised? Sorry my phrasing is bad,) the Black Belt south and Aztlán, which they advocate self determination for
