Caption
For our first session of our Socialist Night School, let’s talk about Democratic
Socialism. After all, we’re the Democratic Socialists of America. This session
will seek to answer a few key questions:
- What do we mean by democracy?
- What is capitalism, and why are we anti-capitalist?
- What do we mean by socialism?
- What are DSA’s demands and goals?
Whether you are a brand new DSA member, an experienced organizer, or just
interested in learning more about democratic socialism, we hope you will join us
for this inaugural session of DSA New Orleans’s Socialist Night School.
