On an Eviction Defense Canvass (EDC), we visit the homes of tenants with upcoming eviction court dates to inform them of their case details and provide guidance on the crucial next steps to fighting eviction. As part of our follow-up steps to these canvasses, we often offer the tenants we talk with court support, where a DSA member goes to court with the tenant to support them.

This virtual training will teach you what to expect if you volunteer to do court support. What the process is like, where to go, what you should bring, and more.

If you're looking for a training on the eviction process itself and tenants' rights, that will be covered in other virtual trainings that are scheduled this month. See bdsa.us/evictiondefense for more information.

If you have any questions for the organizers or want to start volunteering to provide court support to tenants, reach out to us at Destiney.mcgrann@gmail.com and housing@bostondsa.org

What is a General Meeting? A General Meeting is a meeting of the chapter's General Membership, its highest decision-making body. General Meetings are where the General Membership comes together deliberate and make decisions democratically and collectively, as well as to catch up on our ongoing work (and learn how to plug into it), skill-share, and engage in political education.
What are General Organizing Meetings? General Organizing Meetings are also all-chapter meetings, but their focus is primarily on implementing our decisions once we've made them. Time at these meetings is primarily dedicated to training, skill-sharing, and political education, and, when possible, active organizing tasks. 
What is the General Meeting Planning Committee? The GMPC primarily a logistical event planning body, and is responsible for booking venues, recruiting volunteers, liaising with the Coordinating Committee and Internal Elections, and taking on any other meeting-related support tasks that the Coordinating Committee wishes to delegate. The Coordinating Committee is the final authority on GM/GOM agendas, although the GMPC can coordinate with you on developing and presenting your agenda item if the CC approves it.

Welcome to the third of four Town Halls dedicated to 2028 and all it has to offer—a presidential election, general strike, statewide and local elections and ballot measures. Our third Town Hall is on the topic of Labor and the call for a general strike in 2028. What does the current political landscape look like for unions, rank-and-file workers, and non-unionized workers, and what would it look like to have a pro-labor presidential candidate in 2028? What would it take for us to meet the call for a general strike in 2028, and why should we try? What planning is already in place, and how do we meet each other? And most importantly, what do we want to fight for with our labor power?

This Town Hall will feature a very special guest speaker, Jeff Schuhrke, author of Blue-Collar Empire: The Untold Story of US Labor's Global Anticommunist Crusade and No Neutrals There: Us Labor, Zionism, and the Struggle for Palestine.

This is an opportunity for all DSA members, union members, and labor activists to meet and share knowledge, have discussions, and strategize!
This Town Hall is intended to contain both introductory and advanced elements to engage with members across the spectrum of involvement—so whether you are a longstanding DSA member or not a member at all, whether you are a union shop steward or have never been in a union, we will have something for everyone to engage with.

Suggested content and a primer of the evening can be found at bdsa.us/townhalldrive
We will have printed summaries available at the door.

This meeting will be in-person, but a Zoom option is available by request, and a recording will be made available to chapter members. Child watch can be made available by request.

Join Cambridge Educators Association and representatives from Boston DSA Labor Working Group and Cambridge Working Group in being a Silent Bargaining Rep (SBR)!
You might be wondering, what does that mean? Our educators are able to invite community members to listen in on bargaining session to support them. SBRs do not engage with management, and must remain quiet throughout the session.
CEA represents our Cambridge public school employees, and their union leadership is negotiating a contract with the School Committee and Superintendent of Cambridge Public Schools. The School Committee is elected by Cambridge voters during the municipal election cycle (next, in 2027) and the Superintendent is hired by and reports to the School Committee. All CEA units' contracts expired over the summer, so all public school employees are now working without a contract.
Attend the CEA Bargaining Session on Thursday, November 12 between 4:00pm-7:30pm and show community support for our educators by wearing red and listening in to negotiations! You can come and go anytime during the session, but you must do so quietly.
