The Wichita Chapter of Democratic Socialist of America
discussed their roll in a Camp out May 18-20, at their monthly meeting last
Sunday. The campout will be at Eisenhower State
Park. There will be chapters invited from Oklahoma, Springfield, Missouri
and Nebraska. There will be leaders from the national office and there will be
some training as well as time to get to know other DSA members.
In other business DSA will have elections in April for about
six positions that will open up.
For this year’s Juneteenth celebration DSA
will try to have a booth or information table. Juneteenth is the oldest
known celebration commemorating the ending of slavery in the United States.
Dating back to 1865, it was on June 19th that the Union soldiers, led by Major
General Gordon Granger, landed at Galveston, Texas with news that the war
had ended and that the enslaved were now free.
DSA will be organizing an event for May Day.
DSA will take part in a science march April 14.
They will also be taking part in PRIDE Day.
