Join Binghamton YDSA at our No Shortcuts reading group. No Shortcuts is a pivotal organizing book that teaches structure-based organizing and the importance of building mass, democratic, and worker-led power. We'll focus on how to apply McAlevey's lessons to our own YDSA organizing and labor organizing. The reading group will be every week on Sunday at 4 PM from June 14th to July 26th, and you should read each assigned chapter before the session.
