🧤Volunteer for ATLDSA's Winter Clothing Drive!❄️
|
Atlanta DSA is organizing our annual Winter Clothing Drive, and we need your help! The Winter Drive will run Oct. 30-Jan. 30, and comrades will be collecting blankets, masks, medical supplies, hand warmers and more during November and December to distributed to folks in need around metro Atlanta. Sign up here to be a Winter Drive Captain, and be responsible for a donation drop box location in the Metro Atlanta area! All members in good standing across Metro Atlanta are encouraged to sign up!
In the coming weeks, we'll make public a list of drop box locations. In the meantime, if you'd like to donate clothing or supplies to the drive, drop them off at our office at 711 Catherine St SW the next time you attend a DSA meeting, or donate to fund supplies at atldsa.org/donate.

🌹A Year in Review: ATLDSA's Labor Work⚙
|
Every day, billions of working people on Earth toil to maintain a capitalist economy they never asked for. While technological advances and general prosperity have spread beyond the borders of the most advanced countries, the “golden age” of capitalism is over. For the majority of people on the planet, including in the United States, life is getting harder. Capitalism is working overtime to preserve the power and profits of the wealthy at the expense of the rest of us.
In light of this, DSA’s goal is to fight for all working people’s ability to democratically control their own lives in all areas of society and the economy. To achieve that goal, we need two things: the involvement of millions to make a mass movement, and the leverage to win back power from the capitalist class. The only way DSA is going to get what we need to win is by organizing as workers and uniting with organized labor, so we can attack the source of capitalists’ power: their profits.
