Friend --
This past week, Detroit DSA comrades came out to show solidarity with Palestinian, Yemeni, and Anishinaabek comrades at two events in Dearborn.
On Saturday, we marched with the Palestinian Youth Movement and the Yemeni Liberation Movement to commemorate the Nakba, which means “catastrophe" - when Palestinians were forcibly removed from their homes by settler-colonial forces in 1948.
On Tuesday, DSA came together with PYM, YLM, and the MI Anishinaabek Caucus in response to Joe Biden’s visit <[link removed]> to the Ford plant. We demanded the shutdown of Line 5, a stop to U.S. Aid to Israel, and the end of the blockade in Yemen. We were joined by comrades from the Black Lives Matter movement in a beautiful show of solidarity.
Detroit DSA is proud to be led by and stand with Black, brown and indigeneous people from the Great Lakes to the Mediterranean Sea.

"In April Detroit DSA member Danielle Aubert was elected president of the faculty and academic staff union at Wayne State, running on a platform of more member activism, a transparent union, protecting job security, and resisting piled-on workloads." - A New Union President at Wayne State, by Jane Slaughter <[link removed]>
Detroit DSA is a 1200+ member funded organization. We receive no money from outside sources so we can say things like "Defund the Police" and "Abolish ICE" without losing funding, and we will always act democratically in the interests of our members and the working class! If you're able to, we ask that you make monthly contributions as they more directly benefit our chapter. Thank you for whatever amount you're able to contribute!
If you're ready to join the fight for the working class, go here: dsausa.org/join <[link removed]>and send your dues receipt to
