Memphis-Midsouth Democratic Socialists of America

We Have a World to Win

FIGHTING FOR THE MEMPHIS YOU DESERVE

We believe in and work for democratic socialism, a system that puts economic and political power in the hands of working people, centering human needs over profit.
Achieving this requires mass organization and sustained collective struggle against the capitalists who underpay, overwork, abuse, and cheat the working class.
In rejecting racism, imperialism, fascism, and other forms of oppression together as working people, we create a Memphis where our needs are met, workers control their workplaces, and democracy and freedom are shared by all.
