SIDSA Meeting: Fighting for Socialism after the Election
Join the Southern Illinois Democratic Socialists of America (SIDSA) for a discussion about fighting for democratic socialism in the wake of the 2020 elections.
- Trump lost the 2020 presidential election but the fight against his far-right and racist base continues.
- The threat of fascist organizing — emboldened by the Trump administration — continues to grow.
- At the same time the incoming Biden administration is offering very little to workers and people of color.
- And, in terms of US imperialism, the incoming Biden administration may be even worse than the outgoing Trump administration.
- What are the next steps for organizing socialist politics, social movements, and against fascism?
- What lessons has our movement learned about the possibilities and problems of working within the Democratic Party?
- What have we learned from the mass anti-racist protests of the past year?
- How can we organize a fighting socialist movement in Carbondale and southern Illinois?
