Join Seattle DSA to help build affordable social housing in Seattle by taxing wealthy corporations! We’ll be doorknocking to educate voters about funding affordable social housing.

Door knocking is one of the best ways to reach voters about an issue, and you’ll be knocking doors alongside folks who have talked to hundreds – some even thousands – of voters!


Canvassing will usually last for a couple hours after a short training session at the beginning about best door knocking practices. The only thing you need to bring is a mobile phone and why you want to have social housing for your Seattle neighbors.

Be inspired by courageous fights of Puget Sound area tribes for survival and sovereignty as shown in two powerful documentaries.

Back to the River, a 40-minute film, features historic footage and recent interviews with leaders and participants in the “Fish Wars” along the banks of the Nisqually and Puyallup Rivers. The defiance of Indigenous men, women and children ultimately affirmed that U.S. and state governments must abide by treaty promises.

Also featured: We’re Still Here, an 8-minute interview of Cecile Hansen, who at the time was chairperson of the Duwamish Tribe. Seattle sits upon the territory of the Duwamish people, but they are still deprived of federal recognition and resources as a tribe.

$2-4 door donation. Light snacks at 6:30pm for a donation.

Have you ever

  • Wanted more rights at work?

  • Wanted to fight back against the corporate class?

  • Been thinking “I need a union?” but don’t know how to make it happen?

 

This workshop will teach you what you need to get started at your workplace!

This is intended for people currently at non-union workplaces who want to take the first steps toward organizing, whether you want to join an existing union, form a new one, or organizing demands of your boss without a union at all.

Our experienced labor organizers will teach you how to have an organizing conversation and how to form your Organizing Committee.

When we organize, we win!

Don’t forget about Labor Working Group’s upcoming social on Sunday as well!
