Labor 101: Socialism & the Labor Movement — Zoom Series Session 3
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 third session in the series.
This series is 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.

California DSA 101
Are you new or newly returning to DSA? To California? To the Left? Then join us for DSA 101!
At this orientation, we’ll talk about what capitalism is, how it functions, and why socialism is ideologically opposed to it. We'll also talk about the structure of DSA and California DSA in particular, our analysis of the political conditions in California, and how we can organize for a better future. This is not a lecture, but a meeting for new and veteran organizers to ground ourselves in socialist theory and discuss together how we can put it into action. We’re excited to chat with you!
Delivering the Goods: A Socialist Day School on Logistics
Join other California DSA members to learn about the importance of Southern California's supply chain and how it factors into working class struggle!
