📚 NEW BOOK CLUB SERIES: The ABC's of Socialism 📚
|
In an everyday conversation with family or friends about politics, any socialist might be asked the questions posed in the essay titles of ABC’s of Socialism.* What answers would we give to these questions? And what other questions might we ask to prolong a productive conversation about democratic socialism?
For this Book Club series, we’ll be discussing 3 to 4 essays from ABC’s of Socialism.
- ABC’s of Socialism is a compilation of very short essays written by intellectual movement leaders including Bhaskar Sunkara (founding editor of Jacobin Magazine), Vivek Chibber, Keeanga-Yamahtta Taylor and E. O. Wright.
The first session will be this Thursday, February 1st.

✊ Save the Date: Union Reform 101 ✊
|
All over the country, workers are organizing on the shop floor to build strong, militant, and democratic unions. From Teamsters for a Democratic Union (TDU) to Unite all Workers for Democracy (UAWD), the impact of union reform movements is loud and clear. Labor union reform caucuses have helped elect union leadership that's willing to put up a fight - helping Teamsters secure a historic union contract, and leading UAW to launch an unprecedented strike led by the rank-and-file.
Join Atlanta DSA's labor committee on Sunday, February 25 for an info session and workshop on union reform caucuses. We'll cover topics like: What is the goal of union reform? What are some examples of successful union reform movements? How can you get involved in your local union reform efforts?
This workshop is open to anyone, although union members are strongly encouraged to attend.

📽 WATCH NOW - Workers and the World Unite:
Labor in an Ecosocialist Green New Deal 📽
|
How would an ecosocialist Green New Deal change work and labor, and what is the role of unions, bargaining for the common good, and rank-and-file organizing to help us win GND struggles in the near and long term?
Join DSA’s GND Campaign Commission and National Labor Commission to hear from organizers from across the country about their work and how it fits into the theory and practice of a just transition and socialist horizon.
