We want to continue supporting Mr. Hursey and his family. If you are either in contact with any of his family, or know of any GoFundMe' campaigns for Mr. Hursey's hospital care or legal defense, please DM us so that we can reach out with support.

We are reposting due to a typo of Mr. Hursey's name in our previous statement. We want to thank the person who reached out to let us know of this error, it is truly a community effort.

On Jan. 23rd, Redding Police Department violently attacked Kevin Donald Hursey. Shasta County DSA condemns the abhorrent brutalization of Mr. Hursey at the hands of the Redding PD. We demand that the Police Officers involved be held accountable for this senseless act of violence.

[Target Workers Unite @TGTWorkersUnite]

Lets build independent worker power in 2023 as we work towards worker control over all industry and get rid of the parasite capitalists who live lives of luxury off our backs!

[Shasta County DSA @ShastaDSA]

And let's not forget there are also homeless families meaning there are children in need of warm blankets, jackets, scarves and gloves. Whatever you can do helps. You can donate to the good news rescue mission as well.

It's insane how we have to watch the prices of everyday products rise, but have to fight for a livable wage!! We watch the corporations bring in record highs, while the people do all the work.

Fuck this!

[Shasta County DSA @ShastaDSA]

You see the right wing sometimes sounds good because they talk about how the system is broken. Thing is there views of what is wrong, are wrong. They talk without any understanding of who actually has the power. Instead they support the vary people that control the government.

[Read Raising Expectations (and Raising Hell) @JPHilllllll]

As climate change gets worse and hurricanes get more severe, the U.S. government handed Puerto Rico’s entire electric grid to LUMA, a private company that fails almost daily. Now a hurricane is hitting, and this happens.

You're "just not that into politics?"

Your boss is.
Your landlord is.
Your insurance company is.

And every day they use their political power to keep your pay low, raise your rent, and deny you coverage.

Its time to get into politics.

Prop M: Fill Empty Homes, Fund Affordable Housing

Prop M will tax big landlords who keep apartments empty to raise money for affordable housing and rental subsidies for low income families and seniors.

[Paula Jean Swearengin @paulajean2020]

I've heard excuses from government officials all my life...

"It's progress." "Baby steps." "We have to sacrifice now to win later."

When do we actually see progress?!

When do the working class & poor win?!?

[Eugene V. Debs @DebsEbooks]

I am opposing a social order in which it's possible for one man who does absolutely nothing that is useful to amass a fortune of hundreds of millions of dollars, while millions of men and women who work all the days of their lives secure barely enough for a wretched existence.

[Be A King @BerniceKing]

It is terribly inhumane to block pathways out of poverty and oppressive debt because you didn’t need or have those pathways.
