This is another bonus episode. This is the recording of a debate called “Path to an Accountable Party”, held on January 27, 2023. The debate covers Reform vs. Revolution, and how DSA should relate to the Democratic Party. This may be the biggest debate internally within DSA. This is why public discussions like this are important. They help our members hear arguments for different positions and different strategies. In order to stay united in a single political organization, we will need to address these disagreements directly. If we ignore them they will not magically go away.
