Join California DSA's State Council for our April 2025 deliberative meeting. We will hear organizing updates from local chapters and discuss our Vision for California platform, which will guide our statewide organizing for the years to come.

All DSA members in good standing are welcome to join this meeting, though voting and debate will be reserved for elected delegates. The meeting will feature several California chapters, reports from CA-DSA's State Committee and its issue committees, and deliberation on several key business items.

We are witnessing a new moment in labor with a wave of strikes. In the East Bay, Oakland teachers, UC grad students, and workers in a drywall factory. Across the U.S., auto workers, Amazon workers, Starbucks workers…

 What’s the relationship between socialists, unions, and the working class?    

East Bay DSA’s Labor Committee is offering a four-session weekly series. This is the first session in the series. 

This series will be on Zoom only! All California DSA members and friends are welcome.

  Topics include:

• the importance of labor for the socialist project 

• what unions are and do

• labor history

• labor’s challenges under Trump

• ways to join and support the labor movement

If you are new to socialism and/or looking to learn more about unions and the labor movement, this is for you! 

We are hoping that the Zoom format can mean participation by members of chapters across CA DSA. Some chapters may not have something like this and members there are encouraged to join us.

We’ve tried to organize our materials so that a group leader has some guidelines, a timetable, and notes for each session. If you’d like to try leading a group, attending this would be a great way to start.

We’d also love to have some members of other chapters that already have or are developing something like this to join us. Whether or not you can participate, please look at our materials, give us feedback and send us anything you’ve developed.
