Our support for Palestinian liberation struggles and the BDS movement must be unwavering. DSA must be a principled force for it and not let proximity to power influence this commitment, nor any other. We urge the NPC to reverse their decision and reinstate the BDS WG and its SC.

DSA Emerge condemns bad-faith attacks against Sunday's Palestine rally which aim to undermine calls for justice. We stand in solidarity with Palestinians struggling for liberation and allied orgs fighting against US-backing of military occupation, apartheid, and ethnic cleansing.

Over the past few years, DSA has grown into a mass org, and with this has come internal contradictions and conflict. It will only be through collective political struggle that we can work towards our socialist aims for an anti-racist, anti-imperialist, internationalist movement.
