Boston DSA

Who We Are

Boston DSA is the Eastern MA chapter of Democratic Socialists of America.

 

We are working against the oppressive capitalist system in its many forms. We see these oppressions — economic inequality, patriarchy, white supremacy, to name a few — as interlinked, intersecting, and inseparable.

 

Join us in building mass movements for the world we deserve and growing an openly socialist presence in communities and politics in the Greater Boston Area.

Join a Boston DSA Working Group

Boston DSA’s working groups carry out the external political work of the chapter. Working groups are centered strategies such as labor organizing (supporting striking workers and educators) or socialist electoral politics (challenging the legislative system). Learn about the working groups and find your organizing home within the chapter.

Protesters march through the streets of Boston holding signs that say "A Better World if Possible Democratic Socialists of America" and "Boston DSA Supports a Free Palestine"

Working Group Spotlight: Palestine

Join the Palestine Working Group! We’re fighting Warren and Markey by building a mass base around three critical issues – a permanent ceasefire, ending weapons shipments to Israel, and delivering immediate relief for Gaza. For the first time in history, the American people are on the side of Palestine – help us organize them!

  • ALLSTON BRIGHTON GOES TO CAMBRIDGE - EVAN MACKAY MEGA CANVASS JULY 18th

    July 18, 2026 @ 12:00 pm - 2:30 pm
    TBD Harvard Sq, Hardvard Sq, Cambridge MA, 02139

    This is gonna be Evan's biggest canvass yet. With under 60 days
    left to reach voters and the political establishment going all-out to
    stop us, we need all hands on deck. That includes Cambridge City
    Councilor and all-around extremely cool guy Jivan Sobrinho-Wheeler. It
    also includes you. 🫵

    Bring sunscreen. Bring a
    charged phone. Bring enthusiasm. Bring optimism about our ability to
    build a better future for Massachusetts and the world. Bring a burning
    desire to audit the state legislature.
    We're
    trying to turn out 100+ people, so ALSO bring your roommates, family
    members, partners, friends, and anyone else who will listen. We will
    train everyone before we launch and first-time canvassers will pair up
    with an experienced volunteer, so no fear if you've never knocked doors
    before. Help broaden the movement and get people engaged in the politics
    of our state.

    We'll reconvene afterwards to chill, socialize,
    and eat. It will be fun. It will be festive. It will meaningfully
    contribute to overturning the corrupt status quo in the MA state
    legislature.

    Carpool List!!!!!

    Massachusetts
    needs an honest, accountable, and effective state government that can
    deliver on our values and stand up to the Trump administration. Wear
    sunscreen, and bring your positivity and enthusiasm 😊
    Evan
    MacKay is a union leader, pro-democracy organizer, and a Harvard
    teaching fellow. As a Cambridge LGBTQ+ Commissioner and the former
    president of the Harvard Graduate Students’ Union, they’ve been
    organizing in Cambridge around issues of social, racial, environmental,
    and economic justice for over a decade.
    Evan is
    running for state representative in the 25th Middlesex District to
    fight for a transparent, accountable government that works for the many,
    not the few. This campaign isn't about one person. It's about a
    movement for a better world against a corrupt, self-dealing status quo
    of Democratic state house leadership.
