Who We Are

Boston DSA is the Eastern MA chapter of Democratic Socialists of America.

 

We are working against the oppressive capitalist system in its many forms. We see these oppressions — economic inequality, patriarchy, white supremacy, to name a few — as interlinked, intersecting, and inseparable.

 

Join us in building mass movements for the world we deserve and growing an openly socialist presence in communities and politics in the Greater Boston Area.

Join a Boston DSA Working Group

Boston DSA’s working groups carry out the external political work of the chapter. Working groups are centered strategies such as labor organizing (supporting striking workers and educators) or socialist electoral politics (challenging the legislative system). Learn about the working groups and find your organizing home within the chapter.

Protesters march through the streets of Boston holding signs that say "A Better World if Possible Democratic Socialists of America" and "Boston DSA Supports a Free Palestine"

Working Group Spotlight: Palestine

Join the Palestine Working Group! We’re fighting Warren and Markey by building a mass base around three critical issues – a permanent ceasefire, ending weapons shipments to Israel, and delivering immediate relief for Gaza. For the first time in history, the American people are on the side of Palestine – help us organize them!

    Proof Pizzeria, 1312 Commonwealth Ave, Allston MA, 02134

    It's time for Crafting Club!

    Join us to make zines! And crochet some granny squares.

    This is a casual event, drop in when you
    can! Get to know your neighbors, and make some cool stuff together.
    And yes... there will be PIZZA.

    This month, we will be teaching two different crafts:

    • ⁠Zine-making!
    • Crocheting Granny Squares.

    Zines are DIY mini newspapers/magazines, used to tell unique stories, show art, and educate your community!

    And Granny Squares are crocheted squares, made in a all kinds of patterns and colors. They are very beginner friendly, and are used as the building blocks for quilts, sweaters, and more!

    No prior experience necessary! You can also bring your own craft you'd like to work on, if that suits you!

    Or
    just come schmooze and have some pizza. We will be getting
    together again at Proof Pizzeria (we love them!) off of the Griggs St. B-line train.

    BRING YOUR KIDS! We have CHILD CARE!

    Crafting Club is part of an ongoing campaign called #KnowYourNeighbor. We create fun, free spaces for Allston/Brighton. Think of monthly clubs (right now we have a crafting and gaming club!). We also give tips/tricks for getting to know the people in your building, and soon will start neighborhood tours!
