2025-10-16 18:00 - 19:30, 2025-10-30 18:00 - 19:30
The general election is on!!! Mike is through the primary but is behind the Amazon-backed incumbent – however we earned nearly 5,000 votes for our openly democratic socialist candidate, almost 4x more than the number of votes for Mike in 2023! To close the gap and win, we’re hitting the phones to reach more supporters!
The stakes are high – without your help Mike and Seattle DSA cannot win this election! Phonebanking is the ideal way to help Mike if you can’t make it down to Renton to canvass, and the more callers we have, the faster we can go through our lists. RSVP for the Zoom link and to add the phonebank to your calendar. First time and returning volunteers are welcome. We will provide training before the phonebank. Held weekly on Thursdays at 6pm in conjunction with our weekly Campaign Operations meeting to plan the Westgaard campaign.

People’s Forum on Artificial Intelligence
Hosted by Seattle DSA, Troublemakers, and 350 Seattle
Join us for a series of community discussions on the real power and politics behind artificial intelligence – from the data centers draining our water and energy to the algorithms reshaping work, democracy, and daily life.
This isn’t a tech talk; it’s a people’s conversation about who controls our future and how we can fight for one that serves the public good.
Together, we’ll connect labor, climate, and justice struggles, and build the understanding and solidarity we need to push back.
Session 1: Data Centers, Water, and Energy — Who Controls the Commons?
Wednesday, November 19 | 6–8 PM | Prospect UCC | RSVP HERE
As AI expands, data centers are multiplying across Washington, drawing enormous amounts of water and energy without public oversight. Who decides how these resources are used? Who benefits, and who bears the costs?
Session 2: Demystifying AI — Power, Labor, and Control
Monday, December 8 | 6–8 PM | Prospect UCC | RSVP HERE
AI isn’t magic: it’s built on vast amounts of data, energy, and labor. Who controls it, and who profits? How is automation reshaping jobs, surveillance, and power?
Free and open to the public.
Doors open at 6:00pm for a potluck – bring a dish if you’re inspired! Program starts at 6:30pm.

2025-11-23 10:30 - 13:30 | New Freeway Hall, 5018 Rainier Ave. S, Seattle, WA
Come buy some treats in support of Starbucks Workers United’s strike fund! Cash and cards both accepted. Donations will go directly to the strike fund, no middle step.
SBWU members are currently voting to authorize a strike, and any strike would likely start in mid-November. The company has tried to ignore the union, they’ve tried to break union, but the union is still fighting! Help give the baristas the help and solidarity they need to win their contract!
Gluten-free and vegan baked goods will be available while supplies last!
If you are volunteering at this event, please plan to arrive 30 minutes early (10am) or to stay 30 minutes late (2pm) to assist with set-up and tear-down.

2025-12-08 18:00 - 20:00 | Prospect U.C.C., 1919 E Prospect St, Seattle, 98112, United States
People’s Forum on Artificial Intelligence
Hosted by Seattle DSA, Troublemakers, and 350 Seattle
Join us for a series of community discussions on the real power and politics behind artificial intelligence – from the data centers draining our water and energy to the algorithms reshaping work, democracy, and daily life.
This isn’t a tech talk; it’s a people’s conversation about who controls our future and how we can fight for one that serves the public good.
Together, we’ll connect labor, climate, and justice struggles, and build the understanding and solidarity we need to push back.
Session 2: Demystifying AI — Power, Labor, and Control
Monday, December 8 | 6–8 PM | Prospect UCC | RSVP HERE
AI isn’t magic: it’s built on vast amounts of data, energy, and labor. Who controls it, and who profits? How is automation reshaping jobs, surveillance, and power?
Free and open to the public.
Doors open at 6:00pm for a potluck – bring a dish if you’re inspired! Program starts at 6:30pm.
