“As one might expect, authoritarianism will at times cause children and students to adopt rebellious positions, defiant of any limit, discipline, or authority. But it will also lead to apathy, excessive obedience, uncritical conformity, lack of resistance against authoritarian discourse, self-abnegation, and fear of freedom.”
– Paulo Freire
Kansas DSA Sunflower Solidarity Summit
The Kansas Chapters of DSA have organized a state-wide convention that will take place at the SEIU Union Hall in Wichita, Kansas (3340 W Douglas Ave, Wichita, KS 67203), Saturday, January 17, 2026 and Sunday, Janaury 18, 2026. It is not too late to register! This is a great opportunity to get out of Manhattan, meet other DSA members across the state, network, and share in political education. Most of the steering committee will be attending and we can organize car pooling depending on if folks are going for one day or both. Check out the schedule and register using the buttons below.
Political Education
Grab a copy of Abolish Rent: How Tenants Can End the Housing Crisis by Tracy Rosenthal and Leonardo Vilchis, and read it before January 25, 2026 (NB the date has changed due to the State DSA Convention) and join the Political Education Committee to discuss the book and what it means for the way forward as an organization.
