Comrades,
The DSA International Committee is a member of the Peace In Ukraine Coalition. The Coalition is calling for a National Week of Action this week to say YES to negotiations and NO to an endless proxy war with Russia in Ukraine!
“While Biden is calling for another $13+ billion to fund the war on top of the $50+ billion already funded, we demand money for climate, jobs, healthcare and housing, not for more weapons to escalate the war and enrich military contractors.”
What you can do:
- Sign the DSA letter to Tell Congress to Oppose Weapons Shipments to Ukraine
- Join the action in SF on Thursday, Aug 15
- Watch the video of the DSAIC Ukraine Webinar: The War in Ukraine, Impacts and Perspectives: Women, Workers, and Global South
- Share this call to action with comrades

Solidarity,
DSA SF Comms Committee

Want to Write Local Stories? Help Us Out at SFIJ!
After a long-awaited hiatus, the San Francisco Independent Journal (SFIJ) is back and we’re currently looking for writers and editors (both will be paid) to help us keep reporting the most important stories in this charming city. Nowadays, it’s highly unlikely to get local stories without the influence of police propaganda, mayoral influence, and corporations. You can read past stories such as tenants marching to Veritas headquarters last year right before the eviction moratorium and SFUSD teachers organizing a walk-in to demand more safety at schools.
We’re currently looking for writers to help with the following story pitches:
- Investigating San Francisco’s 40,000 empty homes with a focus on three locations
- A few articles on CCSF student and labor organizing, administrative neglect, and what the future holds for CCSF
If you’re interested, please reach out to comms@dsasf.org! You can also support our work here to help us pay for writers and editors.
The Next Chapter Meeting is Tomorrow, September 14!
Join us tomorrow, September 14 at 6:45 p.m. for our monthly chapter meeting! As usual, this will be a hybrid meeting – you can register to attend on Zoom using the link below, or come to the meeting in person at 518 Valencia.
DSA SF Now Has a Protect Abortion Working Group
DSA SF now has a provisional Protect Abortion Working Group. The provisional co-chairs are Ellie G and Alyssa A, and initial plans are to organize pro-abortion actions in coordination with other groups including CA-DSA and National, hold a teach-in for the chapter, and organize mutual aid to support people seeking abortion access. To get involved, join the #abortion-working-group channel in DSA slack – we’ll have lots more updates about the working group’s plans and actions in the weeks and months to come.
