Comrades,  The need for struggle is both clear and daunting – it is difficult to imagine a better future when that future seems more distant by the day. All the more important, then, is that we rise in rage and hope, making clear to those in power that the people…

Comrades,  After months of hard work (and some barbecues!), we’ve finally hit our signature goal to get the Empty Homes Tax on the ballot! Big thanks to everyone who helped get us here and push this campaign forward, from our Signature Captains on down. We’re that much closer to making…

Comrades, Last weekend we held our annual chapter convention both in person and over zoom. At the meeting we took stock of how far we’ve come over the last year. The hardships that come with organizing during a pandemic within a settler empire were reflected honestly in the reports from…

Comrades,  This is a democratic organization. That means we make the rules. More than nearly every other institution in our lives, we have the power to change our chapter. This responsibility means every single DSA member should feel pride in our achievements this last year and should feel a drive…

Comrades, As we prepare for the Chapter Convention in June, it’s time to reflect on our year organizing. In the second year of the pandemic, we have faced deep and bitter challenges as an organization. Many people have given up on politics as a force for change and many of…

Comrades, To hear the City tell it, the San Francisco Police Department has “reformed”, and they spend a lot of money telling it, apparently. This past week, DSA SF member and District 5 supervisor Dean Preston held a hearing on copaganda, revealing just how the City talks about SFPD, and…

Comrades, The news about SCOTUS potentially overturning Roe v. Wade is not only unconscionable but also part of an undemocratic system designed to protect the ruling class. Reproductive rights, abortion, and healthcare should not be up for debate – they should be protected at all costs. Reproductive justice means being…

Comrades, May Day is this Sunday – time to show up and show the bosses how strong we are when we’re all together! DSA SF will be part of the International Workers’ Day march this Sunday, May 1, and we want everyone to show up! The march will start at the Embarcadero…
