Social Democrats of America

Committee of the Second Socialist International

We are launching a new organization, and to gauge interest, we ask that every prospective Socialist agree to the Socialist Manifesto. If you are new to Socialism and find the manifesto contains many unfamiliar historical references, we encourage you to visit the explainer page for further context.

We are also establishing a national email list to foster discourse on Social Democracy and Socialism in the 21st century. To join, we require a non-auto-renewing yearly subscription of $40. This fee helps cover infrastructure costs and verify the identity of subscribers.

The listserv will feature computer-assisted moderation, ensuring that each discussion remains structured. Every email thread will be contained within a single thread. When a new discussion begins, the initial email and its first reply will be shared with the entire group. To participate in a specific thread beyond that, users must opt in by clicking on the email.

Emails will be distributed geographically based on ZIP code, county, or state. If a discussion pertains to the policies of a specific state or county, it will not be automatically shown to members in other regions. However, those outside the area can still join the conversation by visiting the website.
