The Rose Garden Interest Form
Thank you for your interest in joining the Rose Garden! After filling out this Google Form, click the link to join our Discord server, and answer the questions there to become a verified member.

WHO: People on the "mass politics"/"big tent" side of DSA, such as Groundwork, SMC, and people aligned with their shared "general vision" of DSA.

WHAT: Most of us support the "inside-outside" or "party surrogate" strategy of shifting Dems left and building socialist organizational power, but oppose a very-near-future "dirty break" (or immediate "clean break") from the Dems, and also oppose harsh "party discipline" such as expelling our DSA representatives.

WHY: To build cross-caucus collaboration on internal & external DSA matters, to read and discuss modern & historical socialist theory, to collaborate on writing pieces of interest to all DSA members, and organize for the long haul for the 2025 convention.
