As we are unlikely to see an immediate end to capitalism tomorrow, DSA fights for reforms today that will weaken the power of corporations and increase the power of working people. For a, we support reforms that: decrease the influence of money in politics, empower ordinary people in workplaces and the economy, restructure gender and cultural relationships to be more equitable. WHY DSA?'.

Whatever the struggle-be it for a humane, efficient national health care system or for public investment in child care-the right red- baits the proposals as "socialist" and thus forbidden IF so MANY PEOPLE MISUNDERSTAND SOCIALISM, WHY CONTINUE tO USE THE WORD?'.

We attempt to explain Democratic Socialism, mostly using excerpts from the national DSA website. Most quotes are taken from @demsocialists and 7th slide from @dsa_la website has been a great resource to reference for information. Highly recommend looking at that if you want more information. 

Coming soon! Working on a post containing information on how to get involved with the local chapter.
