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!

With so much on deck for the next month, we hope you can join us, and together we can fight to build working class power!
Solidarity forever,

🌹 UPCOMING EVENTS 🌹
Detroit for All Phonebank
Wednesdays at 6:30PM
We're restarting our weekly Detroit For All phone banks every Wednesday from 6:30-8PM to help recruit volunteers to our weekend canvasses. The calls should be super easy - you'll be contacting lists of DSA members and Bernie supporters to ask them to sign up to canvass with us. Based on the latest field plan, we need 8 canvassers at each event in order to hit our voter outreach goals and this is a great way to help us get there. No experience necessary, training will be provided at the start of each event.
