Take Action: Support a Green Public Bank for San Francisco 🌱🏦

San Francisco has the chance to make history by creating a green bank: a publicly-owned institution that invests in affordable housing, small businesses, and clean energy instead of Wall Street profits. A Green Bank Resolution was recently introduced by our Socialist in Office Jackie Fielder, and we need to show the Board of Supervisors and Mayor Lurie that San Franciscans support it.

A public bank would keep our money circulating in our communities, fund climate solutions, and help build a city that works for everyone — not just the wealthy.

Take two minutes to send an email to the Mayor and Supervisors using our email tool.

Want to help build the campaign? Join the #public-bank channel in Slack or email ecosocialist@dsasf.org to get plugged into organizing efforts and stay updated on next steps.

Stop The Threat Of US War On Venezuela! 🇻🇪

Wondering how we got here? Want to understand why Trump is attacking Venezuela? Need to deepen your understanding of US-Venezuela relations? And most importantly: want to discuss how we can fight back?

Join the Palestine Solidarity and Anti-Imperialism working group at 1916 McAllister on Tuesday, October 28th, 6:00-7:30PM in an educational forum on the history of Venezuela and the struggle against US imperialism. RSVP HERE!

ICE Out of SF Courts!

Join neighbors, activists, grassroots organizations in resisting ICE abductions happening at immigration court hearings! ICE is taking anyone indiscriminately in order to meet their daily quotas. Many of those taken include people with no removal proceedings.

We’ll be meeting every Tuesday and Friday from 8:00 AM to 4:30 PM at Immigration Court at 100 Montgomery. We need all hands on deck. The 8:00 AM to 10:00 AM window is when we most need to boost turnout, but if you can’t make that please come whenever works for you. 1 or 2 hours or the entire time! We’re also holding orientation sessions for folks, but that is not required to attend. See the 🐣 Immigrant Justice Court Action Orientation event for more details.

📖 DSA SF Tenant Organizing Reading Group – “Housing the City by the Bay: Tenant Activism, Civil Rights, and Class Politics in San Francisco” 

San Francisco has always had an affordable housing shortage, but solutions outside of the private sector have long been neglected or overlooked. Join us as we learn about the history of one proposed solution: public housing.

Our four-part reading group will meet every other Thursday at 7:30 PM to 9:30 PM hybrid in person at 1916 McAllister and Zoom with RSVP to discuss John Baranski’s book “Housing the City by the Bay”. The next meeting will be Thursday, October 30.

If you wish to join please RSVP here!

Growing Community: Urban Food Production at Alemany Farm

Come join DSA SF’s Ecosocialist working group Saturday, November 1st, 2025 1:00 – 5:00PM  as we get our hands dirty gardening at one of SF’s community gems, Alemany Farm.

First, we will tour the farm and learn about its history as a community gathering place and food source. Next, we will be doing volunteer gardening tasks (planting seedlings, harvesting weeds, flipping compost, building paths, etc.). Midway through our volunteer work, we’ll take a break to discuss the farm’s mission and how it relates to DSA’s values and goals, covering topics including environmentalism, anti-capitalist food production, and shared public space. We’ll finish with a bit more volunteer work and a harvest, where we’ll collect some crops from around the farm and take some home! RSVP here!

Join SF EWOC to Organize the Unorganized!

The SF local of the Emergency Workplace Organizing Committee (EWOC) needs to get more workplace organizing leads so we can increase union density! Our strategy sessions (held at the DSA SF office, 1916 McAllister) will determine what neighborhoods and tactics to use at the next flyering event. You don’t need to be a volunteer or organizer with EWOC to attend! Our next strategy session will be Sunday, November 2nd at 1:00PM at 1916 McAllister. RSVP here!

We will have monthly regular strategizing and flyering events on the first and third Sundays of every month at 1PM. Our next flyering event will be  Sunday, November 16th at 1:00PM – location TBD! RSVP here!

✊ Organizing Mindset Training

Organizing is at the core of what we do as socialists — and it’s a skill that can be developed and practiced. Come join fellow comrades as we learn and discuss how we can incorporate organizing fundamentals into our day-to-day actions so that we can build stronger, more cohesive, and more active communities that can rally together against the unjust capitalist system. Whether it’s our neighbors, coworkers, friend groups, fellow transit-riders, or any other communities we interact with daily, we will always be stronger when we are organized, aligned on the most critical issues we are facing, and ready to act in unison and put our collective people power behind our demands.

Join us at 1916 McAllister St on Sunday, November 16th from 3:00 – 6:00PM for the first iteration in what we hope will become a recurring, multi-part Organizing Mindset training. 🐣  All are invited and encouraged to attend, whether you are new to DSA, new to organizing, or a more seasoned member/organizer. This first session in particular is a great one to attend if you are interested in helping shape future iterations of this training. RSVP here!
