Los Angeles has a rich history of people coming together on a super-local basis to fight for progress and to defend human rights. That inspiring energy has continued through to this present day, but is it enough to build lasting change?
Wednesday, June 3rd, 6:00pm on Facebook Live — Join organizers from Democratic Socialists of America – Los Angeles and member and City Council candidate Nithya Raman (Nithya for the City) for an educational and motivating look at the power (and limits) of neighborhood organizing.
Please RSVP and invite everyone you know!
