Description

A two month series of gatherings which teach new members about the basics of socialism, the details of the DSA organization with a focus on the local Columbus chapter. During these meetings, they will meet and mingle with leaders of the chapter as well as current membership.

The following are the topics of each of the gatherings we'll have: 

Week 1 (Sep 5): Socialism Basics

Week 2 (Sep 19): National DSA Organization

Week 3 (Oct 3): Columbus DSA Chapter

Week 4 (Oct 17): Social - Hybrid, in-person location to be determined

Republicans called Obama a communist, when all his worst actions as president were continuations and expansions of Bush’s policies. Democrats called Trump a Nazi when his worst acts were continuations and expansions of Obama’s policies. Now we’re back to calling Harris a communist, while she supports a genocide that Republicans also support.

Calling Kamala Harris a communist isn’t wrong because it degrades Harris, it’s wrong because it degrades communism.

The Biden-Harris administration is knowingly helping the Israeli government wage a campaign of extermination in Gaza that has shocked and horrified the entire world, so obviously the real villain we need to focus on here is Jill Stein.

No serious person believes a bunch of socialists and peaceniks are going to vote for a capitalist warmongering party. Democrats don’t bitch about the Green Party because of lost votes, they do it because they hate being reminded that their party’s a lie and their values are fake.

Our new film Vigilantes Inc.: America's Vote Suppression Hitmen will have its launch opening one-week-run in Hollywood September 6 -12 and a special one night opener in Oakland at the Grand Lake Theater on September 25.
 

If there is anyone out there who seriously doubts that it is Israel that is in the driver’s seat when it comes to its relationship with the United States, last week’s filing of criminal charges directed against Hamas’s leadership should be a wake-up call. The seven-count criminal complaint was filed in a federal court in New York City on September 2nd.

“As I said then, I say today, Israel had a right — has a right to defend itself.”

This is militarism set in stone. The words are those of Kamala Harris, of course, in her extensive CNN interview last week – quick words that lead the charge and spew the glory, no matter how blatantly false they are.

Oh, and by the way: “Far too many innocent Palestinians have been killed,”

For generations, teach-ins have combined with direct action to propel movements for peace and social justice.

From the era of the Vietnam War...

To the 1980s struggle to end apartheid in South Africa...

To protests against Israel’s ongoing genocide in Gaza.

We’re excited to announce the launch of the Teach-In Network — to provide resources for activism on and off campuses — to educate and build movements for challenging what Martin Luther King Jr. called “the madnes of militarism.”
