Meeting in the Learning Center!

We are continuing our socialist housing education series with a panel discussion of homelessness centering voices of experience. This event invites you to hear from a group of individuals who are experiencing homelessness, or who have experienced homelessness in the past. We will be listening to stories, perspectives on issues, and ideas for what a real solution to homelessness looks like from the vantage point of folks actively seeking these solutions.

The homeless communities across our country are among those most profoundly harmed by capitalism, and most improperly blamed for the failings of an exploitative system. We affirm the fundamental worth of every person, and we reject the idea that human value is determined by how profitable human bodies are. That anyone is without shelter in a country of such wealth is a failure in terms of morality and justice, and the DSA Housing Committee invites you to a discussion of this wrong and how we can make it right.

Room 531!

Using the AV equipment we’ll take a tour of the City Budget, Strategic Directions 2023 (the city’s “plan”), and possible pressure points. Hopefully everyone will have the tools they need to organize around the City Process! This event is only for DSA members.

Come see the only Austin screening of Eva Lewis’ documentary Undeterred, about the realities of immigration and U.S. Customs & Border Patrol, followed by a Q&A with filmmaker Eva Lewis.

Have you been curious about DSA's Medicare for All campaign? Have you wanted to canvas with DSA but felt unsure if you knew the topic of Medicare for All well enough? This session will answer all your questions and more! We will have a presentation about the current bills in Congress proposing Medicare for All, including details on how they would change your lives. We will go over the current political climate and discuss the arguments that opponents are raising against these bills.

Everyone is welcome! We will assume no knowledge of the topic and we encourage both DSA members and non-members to attend. Community guidelines for discussion will be agreed upon prior to the session beginning.
