Communist Organization of Angola (in Portuguese: Organização Comunista de Angola; OCA), a Maoist-oriented communist party in Angola. OCA was founded in 1975 by the Amilcar Cabral Committees (Comités Amilcar Cabral; CAC). The CAC were founded in 1974 inside the MPLA and excluded in 1975. It opposed the MPLA government and what it called Soviet social-imperialism. It also called for withdrawal of Cuban troops. OCA was suppressed by the government.
The OCA published Vanguarda Operaria.
The group is now defunct.
