ANSWER Coalition is a front for PSL (Party for Socialism and Liberation)

"Front Groups & Front Coalitions: Creating a front group or coalition is another way vanguards try tapping into movement energy to re-direct to their own ends. The front is dominated by members of the vanguard without clear connection to the vanguard group, to better allow the vanguard to hide their politics and intentions. Its purpose is to find recruits for the vanguard, and to be a vehicle for the vanguard’s activities that appears to be separate from them."

"PSL:

Reports from former members of sexist, bigoted, highly controlling and physically abusive behavior being protected go back over a decade across various chapters. Known for entryist practices to hijack other groups, collaborating with police, and for significant involvement in the anti-war ANSWER coalition, itself originally a WWP front. Also known for leading unsuspecting marchers into police kettles without forewarning or jail support, then using the ensuing arrests to fundraise."
