The Party of the Poor (Spanish: Partido de los Pobres, the PdlP) was a left-wing political movement and militant group in Mexico operating between 1967 and 1974. Led by the rural schoolteacher Lucio Cabañas, the PdlP – through its armed wing, the Peasants' Justice Brigade (Spanish: Brigada Campesina de Ajusticiamiento) – waged guerrilla warfare against the Mexican government in the mountains of Guerrero.
After the death of Cabañas and several other key insurgents at the hands of the government on 2 December 1974, the PdlP was dissolved. Its legacy, and that of Cabañas, remains active in contemporary Mexican radical politics.
