Coffee with Comrades (Learn About DSA)

New to DSA, looking to plug back in after being inactive or just have been curious about joining the group that helped get Zohran Mamdani elected? Hang out with democratic socialist community organizers for a friendly, casual social over coffee (or your non-alcoholic drink of choice). This is a great chance to chat with like minded people and learn more about Boston DSA chapter's priorities. Check out what organizing for a better world looks like! Then, we encourage you to join us afterward on our monthly <a href="https://actionnetwork.org/events/rxng-edc-july-2026/">Eviction Defense Canvass</a>. We'll visit the homes of Roxbury tenants with upcoming eviction court dates to inform them of their case details and provide guidance on the cruicial next steps to fighting eviction. Newcomers are welcome! You do not need canvassing experience to join us. Others will join us at Dunkin' at 2pm to review the process, distribute materials, and form pairs/groups.
