Get involved →We are the East Bay chapter of Democratic Socialists of America
Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) is the country's largest socialist organization, and East Bay DSA is the fifth-largest chapter in the US. We are working for both an economy and society in Oakland, Berkeley, and throughout the East Bay that are run democratically to meet human needs, not to make profits for a few.
Our work
San Pablo’s $44 million Cop Campus already has numerous opponents, across the city and the entire Bay. Tenants and the unhoused, Palestinians and Afrikans, anarchists and socialists, unions and abolitionists—no one wants yet another police training facility in San Pablo
Get involved →The Socialist Fundamentals Series creates a shared vocabulary and understandings as the basis for debate, solidifies knowledge of socialist fundamentals, and enables members to make informed strategic and tactical decisions. Join us each month as we work through the curriculum
Get involved →Just as local and global divestment campaigns helped dismantle the apartheid regime in South Africa decades ago, we will again meaningfully contribute to the dismantling of the Israeli apartheid state today. Reach out to learn how you too can organize against these atrocities. Together, we will end this genocide.
