End Sanctions
Comrades, Sanctions as a weapon of war are always most keenly felt by those who are most vulnerable – not billionaires with yachts. On Wednesday, June 8 at 7:00 p.m. at 518 Valencia, we’ll have a very special opportunity to hear from three Venezuelan feminists about their experiences living under…

Call In to Reject the Redistricting Map

DSA SF Rejects Gerrymandering in San Francisco
The San Francisco Democratic Socialists of America demand that the San Francisco Redistricting Task Force reject politically motivated gerrymandering. As socialists, we are committed to democracy, both as a means and an end. We are building a mass movement of working class people to take back power from big corporations…
