🌱 Build a Better World Together — Give to DSA! 🌱

Have you thought about your New Year’s resolutions? DSA is building the mass working class movement we need to win the world we want in 2022 and beyond. Make a gift today and resolve to make 2022 the year of solidarity!

 

2021 was a brutal year, especially for poor and working class people. But adversity is nothing new for us. This year we saw resilience in the midst of a life-altering global pandemic, community in the face of climate disaster, and courage from workers all over the country who are fed up with a ruling class that puts profit over people.

 

📣 Join Forum 📣

Delegates raise voting cards at the 2019 Convention in Atlanta, Georgia

If you haven't already heard, Atlanta DSA is transitioning away from Slack to new forms of online communication which are asynchronous, mobile friendly and easy-to-use. Most chapter groups have already switched to Signal and email for organizing. As was announced at the November General Meeting, the chapter's new forum website will be used for connecting members, debating socialist politics and discussing chapter organizing efforts.

 

Members can sign up for the new forum today at forum.atldsa.org. Not a member? Join or renew your dues at dsausa.org/join
