Help DSA-LA Reach Our Recruitment Goal!

DSA-LA, as a part of National DSA's ambitious goal of recruiting 5,000 new members by November 7th, is challenging itself to stretch for the goal of 500 new recruits.

 

That means we need YOUR help, from now until November 7th, to talk with three people in their network about joining DSA-LA. Don't know where to start? Use our new 'What Is DSA?' explainer video to show what DSA is fighting for.

Write Brithday Letters to Political Prisoners

Sunday, November 8th @ 6:30PM–8:00PM

Join the Mutual Aid Committee as we write November birthday letters to political prisoners and prisoners of war. We will be using a list provided by the NYC Anarchist Black Cross. Before we write letters as a group, we’ll briefly discuss each person, and then as a group sit down and all write our own letters. If you can’t join us, you can always read the NYC Anarchist Black Cross’s guidelines, and write letters on your own!

Please RSVP to this event for connection information.

Mutual Aid Birthday Letter Writing streams happen twice a month, on the second and fourth Sundays.
