Gabriel Acevero
DSA Brazil trip
From April 29 – May 4 2020, Kristian Hernandez, Ashik Siddique, and Sofia Guimaraes Cutler (NPC), Jana Silverman (International Committee), James Ehresman-Tsagong (NCC-YDSA), and Gabriel Acevero, (Maryland State Delegate) went to Brazil as part of an exchange hosted by the Partido dos Trabalhadores (PT), Central Unica dos Trabalhadores (CUT), and Foro de Sao Paulo.
During the week they spent in São Paulo, they heard first-hand about the attacks against workers spearheaded by Jair Bolsonaro’s neo-fascist government, and the tragic consequences of the 1964-1985 US-sponsored military dictatorship. But they also learned how unions, social movements and socialist activists are resisting neo-fascism and neoliberalism, and building the campaign to elect Lula in this October’s Presidential elections.[1]

Victory
Metro DC DSA-endorsed members Gabriel Acevero and Vaughn Stewart also won their primaries on Tuesday, meaning Maryland will almost certainly have two Democratic Socialists joining the House of Delegates. Both ran unapologetically socialist campaigns, calling for universal pre-K, free public post-secondary education, public financing for elections, and single-payer healthcare in Maryland. Acevero and Stewart will bring much-needed militancy to Annapolis, where Democrats have been far too timid on progressive causes despite holding super-majorities in the legislature.[4]
