Detroit DSA is a
800+ 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!
Our records indicate that you are
not yet a member. If you're ready to join us
in the fight for the working class, go to dsausa.org/join and join today!
