i can give my whole experience with DSA chapter maybe even blog about it. but the cliffnotes are that I met them at the second no kings rally and decided to investigate them to see if they're worth contributing too. also I'm still in the tire kicking stage.

I'm more curious about other people experiences with DSA. did you hear about them? did you attend one of their meeting? have you done anything with/for them? any opinions on the organization?

Yes they elected the guy in charge (his words) cause he's black, almost as soon as he walked in the door. He's a communist and I was the only other minority there (trans) and we joked around a lot and drank some beers together later.
