Mobilizing, Learning, and Organizing in May

Howdy,

Last week, Houston DSA protested with hundreds of Houstonians to demand the City of Houston protect our immigrant communities. After mobilizing, we are digging in for a month of learning and organizing. As Trump erodes constitutional order and international law, we must organize to fight back. As Peter Thiel and other Trump owners experiment dystopian technologies on immigrants and Palestine, we are learning from past revolutionaries to build a free future.

Join Our General Meeting for Important Campaign Updates on Immigrant Justice and Stop Fueling Genocide

Our Immigrant Justice Campaign followed up the protest with a canvasses to engage community members in pressuring City Council. Our Stop Fueling Genocide Campaign has shifted to pushing gas stations to divest from Chevron as the company is aiding the US-Israel genocide of Palestinians. Come learn how you can get engaged in these fights. Can't make our General Meeting? RSVP for specific campaign meetings.

MEMBERS: We will be voting at the General Meeting for 13 delegates to send to the National Convention. Please check Mattermost for more information and candidate questionnaire answers.

Honor Revolutionary Birthdays!

May marks many anniversaries of socialist struggle and victories. May 19th is the birthday of five revolutionaries: Ho Chi Minh, Malcom X, Yuri Kochiyama, Lorraine Hansberry, and Kathy Boudin. We'll have a reading and discussion of Malcolm X's speeches at CLASS Bookstore this Saturday, May 10. On Monday, May 19th, we will learn from the work of each of the radicals.

"Metastasis: The Rise of the Cancer-Industrial Complex and the Horizons of Care" with Author / DSA Member

As Democratic Socialists, we demand Medicare for All to end the capitalist health care system that indebts, harms, and kills working class people. We will be hosting DSA member Nafis Hassan to discuss how this system shapes the study and treatment of cancer in particular.
