I filled out the info form (a google form) for the NYC DSA the other day but haven't heard a response. Was hoping to check things out before deciding if paying dues and joining was the right fit for me. I probably won't' be able to make the Chuck Schumer event tonight due to childcare responsibilities but am interested in seeing if this is a good fit for me! Assume there's just a huge wait in reviewing and processing those forms but if anyone knows if there's anything else i can do to get on emails/in the loop faster, let me know.

unbutthurtable posted:I'm with NYC DSA. You're totally right that we're growing so fast that it's tough to keep up (though we're definitely working out the systems and processes to manage this all better going forward, don't worry), so here's what I would do: I'm in Brooklyn. I'm an attorney but not currently practicing. In law school i was involved with working on low income tenant issues, but haven't touched it in years. Right now it feels like mounting and supporting opposition to everything that's happening right now (as it arises) is more important than a particular niche sub-issue but if there are existing sub-groups doing good things, I wouldn't be opposed to getting involved. My wife and I have 3.5 month old twins so making time is pretty tough right now. We're going to have to be very strategic about our time and what we can do. And she's a practicing public defender so her time is a hell of a lot more useful than mine is right now. That said, need to start somewhere, doing something.

Rated PG-34 posted:I met Hawkins as he’s seeking the nomination of our tiny nyc socialist party chapter, and he seemed like a genuine dude trying to overthrow capitalism, stop climate change and poo poo Sure but he has less than zero chance to win so your real choices are Cuomo or Nixon (by a longshot) so think strategically. Also lol if you are registered for anything other than the dems in a state with closed primaries. E-Money has issued a correction as of 14:58 on Jul 11, 2018 |
