Movement of Young Marxist-Leninists (in French: Mouvement des Jeunes marxistes-léninistes) was a radical Marxist-Leninist group in Senegal, founded by Landing Savané in 1970. MJML was the continuation of Democratic Youth.

MJML was shortlived. The brothers Blondin Diop split from it and created the Committee for the Initiative for Permanent Revolutionary Action. Landing would later form the group Reenu-Rew in 1973.
