Saturday, June 19, 3-6 PM: Atlanta DSA Juneteenth Celebration

Juneteenth is Freedom Day in Atlanta

Join Atlanta DSA, Black Voters Matter, and Georgia Coalition for the People's Agenda for a day all about family, friends, food, and fun. Juneteenth is Freedom Day in Atlanta! Bring your friends and be ready to make new ones.

We also need VOLUNTEERS to help with setup, tabling, and breakdown! Please sign up using the form below and share with your comrades, too.

This week, Council Member Joyce Sheperd will introduce a bill to lease 381 acres of city-owned land to the Atlanta Police Foundaiton, for the purpose of constructing a massive, privately funded police training academy. The last thing APD needs is more tools and resources to harass Atlanta residents. Use the script below to call the Finance Commiteee Tuesday June 15 between 4:00-7:00 PM and say NO to the leasing of land and construction of cop city!

Know Your Rights: Train the Trainer

Join your neighborhood Branches for a "Train the Trainer" Know Your Rights session! It will be a little more in-depth than the training from last month's General Meeting, and attendees will leave prepared to do their own Know Your Rights sessions.
