About UsLeft Wing TC
aims to create a safe space for People of Color and LGBTQ communities
regardless of skill level to be a part of a team, take risks in order to
improve, and pursue their love of the game. Founded on the tenants of
social justice and self-determination, LWTC seeks to challenge
imperialist paradigms on the pitch that are founded on the exploitative
notion that success means winning at all costs. The
original Left Wing team, Left Wing FC, was founded in Oakland, CA in
2003. In the ten years since, sibling teams have sprung up in Los
Angeles (LA Futblistas), Washington, DC (Left Wing DC) and here in the
Twin Cities (Left Wing TC). LWTC follows in the footsteps - and includes
veterans - of such radical/social justice futbol squads as La Raza FC,
People of Color Soccer/Third World Alliance, The General Strikers, and
Queer Soccer.
