Southwest Worker Organizing Collective

Sunday, December 8⋅12:00 – 4:00pm

Are you working two or three gigs just to make rent? Are you a freelancer who never gets paid on time? Are you frustrated that you don't have a voice at work? You're not alone.


The Worker Organizing Collective is a group of DSA members, including experienced labor organizers, who meet to practice concrete, effective organizing skills. This collective is for anyone who wants to take a stand to improve their jobs, fight injustice, and build a mass movement for democratic socialism.


Join us for our first-ever Southwest Regional workshop cohosted by Denver, Santa Fe, and Albuquerque DSA!


NOTE: This event is open to DSA Members interested or active in organizing labor, and trusted labor organizers only-- this is not open to the general public or to general DSA membership.

** A note from our OC
------------------------------------------------------------

Happy Holidays from the all of us here at DSA Santa Fe! October and November flew right by and we kept busy. See photos from our brake light clinic below (we helped 31 people avoid unnecessary and dangerous police stops)! We are doubling down on direct action and forming coalitions with local organizations that can help us in our goal of achieving Democratic Socialism here in Santa Fe.

We have a lot of stuff coming up this month, and we want to make sure that everyone has a chance to plan and participate! Please check out our newsletter and be sure to join us on December 29th for our end-of-month business meeting.
