"Reagan gave the rich and powerful a multibillion-dollar party. Now the party's over, he expects the people to pay for the damage. I take this principal position: Let us not raise taxes on the poor and the middle-class, but those who had the party. The rich and powerful must pay." -Jesse Jackson
He stood with Cuba and against apartheid South Africa. And he did it all in the shadow of having seen his friend and mentor murdered in front of him. His loss will be deeply felt. We must recommit ourselves to carrying on his legacy and, in his words, keeping hope alive.
Leadership must meet the moral challenge of its day. What is the moral challenge of our day? Economic violence- Jesse Jackson Photo of Rev. Jackson with Bernie Sanders.
Jackson's Presidential campaigns fired back, laying out a vision of a multiracial America that inspired both his adherent Bernie Sanders and the entire democratic socialist movement. Jackson held the line on Palestine, on gay rights, on racial justice, and on economic justice.
If an issue is morally right, it will eventually be political. If we are principled first, our politics will fall into place. -Jesse Jackson
Boston DSA joins the rest of the country in mourning the passing of Reverend Jesse Jackson. Jackson began his career fighting for economic liberation in the Civil Rights Movement. Unlike many leaders from that era, he remained influential despite a brutal right wing backlash.

In the face of a fascist takeover, when masked agents of a criminal government roam the streets kidnapping and murdering without repercussion, we look to each other to build solidarity. There is no way out but through.

Evan MacKay speaks in front of DSA signs
Thousands of people attended a rally organized by Boston DSA and our coalition partners last Saturday. We heard from union leaders, local organizers, both of our elected Boston DSA co-chairs, and our newly endorsed candidate in Cambridge Evan MacKay.
Note: The Boston DSA endorsement is awarded after a deliberative procedure with multiple rounds of voting. Evan was UNANIMOUSLY endorsed at every step of the way, by hundreds of DSA members. They are one of our best and we could not be more excited to take this step with them.
Boston DSA and Evan are back and ready to fight for a just, affordable future. Boston DSA just elected two socialist champions to Cambridge City Council- now let's build on the moment and send one to Beacon Hill! Join us! t.co/wD0mxpOymR

I am so honored by this endorsement. When I first joined DSA, I never could have imagined I'd be running as part of a national movement alongside other young Muslims like @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social. From Cambridge to New York to Palestine, our struggles are linked. We will win through solidarity.
