First Round of STL DSA’s New Socialist Night School!

The newest installment of the Socialist Night School is here, and for this round of classes, we’re going to be covering organized labor!

Join us for our first class tomorrow, February 21, at 6:30 pm, at Trinity Church. During this first event, we’ll provide an introduction to labor and the importance of organizing. Readings will be sent out closer to the event, and you can expect plenty of discussion between comrades.

Because this is an in-person event, please make sure to wear a mask.

Labor also has a Movie Night Social coming up soon on Sunday, March 19! We’ll be at the SEIU Local 1 Hall (2725 Clifton Ave.) at 3 pm, screening the movie “Pride,” a movie about solidarity between queer activists in London and British miners on strike in 1984.
