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.
Get Involved

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.

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!

Virtual Co-Working
April 15, 2026 @ 6:30 pm - 8:00 pm
OnlineAs the pace of the world seems ever more frantic, it can be tough to cave out time and energy to not simply react to the latest ongoings and do the steady work to keep the movement going! Join comrades for some relatively chill time to do what you can from your phones, computers, and other devices.
There is no set agenda, this is simply time and virtual space to work on tasks. We will be on Working Group Voice Channels on the chapter discord. If you don't have a task on your to-do list, drop in any way, there may be something you can help work on!
