Join the Internal Organizing Committee for a New Member Phonebank. We meet on Zoom to go over the script, mute ourselves and make phone calls to other DSA members, and then return to debrief how our calls went. A brief training is provided and no prior experience is required. These phonebanks are a chance to meet other members to TCDSA, hear what they need from our chapter and what brings them to socialism. Register for the Zoom meeting here.
All are welcome, but new members should note that we will be calling you!
IO phonebanks are held on the 1st and 3rd Wednesdays of the month. For more information about joining this meeting, see the #internal-organizing Slack channel.

On college and university campuses across the US, talk of “academic freedom” and “student safety” has become all-consuming. But what is academic freedom? And whose safety are we really concerned with? As hundreds of thousands of Palestinians in Gaza have been killed by Israel’s genocidal attacks, faculty, students, and staff across American colleges and universities are being charged with creating an “unsafe atmosphere” by speaking up for Palestinian liberation. What does it mean to create an “unsafe atmosphere” in the context of talking about genocide? How has safety been weaponized to silent dissent? What are our rights and what are our responsibilities? And what can we do now?
