Informal Meeting: Deliberate Over Memphis-Midsouth DSA’s Future Efforts
March 28 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm UTC-6
Join with members and guests to discuss resolutions proposing new organizing committees and efforts for our chapter. This is a chance you have to influence our organizing future!
If you need the meeting location or want to propose an additional resolution, please email at memphisdsa@gmail.com.
Resolutions read and discussed/debated at this meeting will likely be put to a vote at our General Meeting on April 9th at 6pm.
The two proposed Organizing Committees we are currently moving forward with are:
- Legislation and Representation
Focused on representation reform on a municipal and state level, efforts for new laws or regulations, and occasionally electoral campaigns.- Examples of its work range from overturning anti-Boycott Divest and Sanction laws to changing the meeting times of the Memphis City Council.
- Point of Production
Organizing to build the labor movement and to support cooperatives as well as other pro-worker businesses.
However, if there is another area of work you want us to establish a committee for, please get in touch! Our Steering Committee is committed to helping facilitate the work you want to do toward a socialist future. For example, we have a preponderance of educators in our chapter. Perhaps they want to form an Education Organizing Committee aimed at free, quality, and truthful education at all levels?
