About Us

Who We Are

We are the Ecosocialist Working Group of the New York City chapter of the Democratic Socialists of America, the largest socialist organization in the United States with over 90,000 members (as of February, 2021). We are a member-run organization working together to build a democratic socialist organization in the five boroughs.

What We’re Fighting For

We believe a sustainable future is a human right. Yet capitalism plunges us deeper into crisis every day. There’s a better way: ecosocialism. As ecosocialists, we fight the political and economic powers that put profit over people to ensure a future for us all.

What is Ecosocialism?

Ecosocialism is the solution to a suicidal system that allows capitalists and fossil fuel giants to profit while poisoning our bodies and our planet. We see the struggles for environmental justice as linked to all struggles against the ruling class. It’s simple: ecosocialism or bust.
