🗣Join the Forum! 🗣

Eat Drink and Be Marxist

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
