Capitalism robs us of our ability to have a say in our lives. Socialism gives us that power back. Let's work together to participate and decide how we use OUR power.
DSA-LB members can RSVP here for more information and have a say in what our Chapter does!

Local Convention season is underway here for DSA-LB, and we've got big plans brewing! Our theme this year is "Building Momentum", which gets its name from the surge of membership and organizing we did in 2025. This year is the next step in growing into the fighting Chapter we all know it can be.
So much is possible with strength in numbers. A huge thank you to all of our members for coming to our workshops, meetings, protests, solidarity strikes, and beyond.

HUGE NEWS: Today, Democratic Socialists of America has over 100k members nationwide & DSA-LB just crossed 400 members ๐ฑ

Our International Solidarity Committee (ISC) is meeting tomorrow night to detail our Chapter's response to ICE.
It's pretty common for folks to put their words into Dr. King's mouth on his day. DSA-LB thinks he speaks well enough in his own words.

In 2 weeks we've raised $1750! That's incredible. Let's do this together: actionnetwork.org/fundraising/...
Alt text is a rewrite of: While the Democrats have caved, putting working people in further jeopardy, we're $400 away from our first stretch goal to step up for our neighbors! The money we've raised so far is enough to provide over 1300 meals through Long Beach Community Table.
We're actually now less than 400 dollars away from raising 2k for Long Beach Community Table.

Did you just watch Zohran's & many other DSA comrade's historic wins last night and feel that fundamental shift in the tenor of American politics?
What we saw last night wasn't the work of a single individual. It took the hard work of people just like us to make them happen.
Zohran won't be alone. Together our efforts can win over the people and silence the rich.
DSA will be coast to coast and in between. Let's make this movement unstoppable. Thank you New York for showing that socialism is popular and speaks to the working class.

Congratulations Zohran! From LBC to NYC, Socialism Wins! Join DSA Today! Become a part of the largest socialist movement in America.
Zohran Mamdani's historic win today is a reminder that the people united CAN beat wealthy elites like Cuomo and his billionaire backers Thanks to the efforts of a massive grassroots campaign that brought together comrades all across the nation and native New Yorkers, the people have spoken.
Prior to the 11 am GM start we will be having our New Member Hour to help newer members break the ice with comrades! Plus you can find out more about what's happening in the Chapter AND meet with some representatives from Committees ahead of time to learn about how to get plugged into work.
The bulk of this session will be be a Chapter Visioning Session to determine strategies for 2026 locally. We'll of course here reports from Steering about the state of the Chapter and make a call to our future Chapter Leaders to consider stepping up at the start of the new year.
