Template:TOCnestleft Meg Wachter moved to Los Angeles from New York in 2018.
- From 2009-2013 I founded and organized Brooklyn Skillshare -- a community-based, community-led, and community-building learning events organized and taught by Brooklyn residents. It was for learning, making, sharing, and doing.
- I also co-founded and edit an feminist magazine called Got a Girl Crush (gotagirlcrush.com), that aims to disrupt the broken narrative of most women's publications and tell stories of all ages, races, and backgrounds of women all over the world. In the last ten years sold 5,000+ copies internationally and have fundraised thousands of dollars for local, national, and international non-profit organizations doing work in LGBTQ+, reproductive justice, immigration rights, and women's equality.[1]
Statement on Anti Blackness in the DSA
Statement on Anti Blackness in the DSA was released in February 2021:
We as the AfroSocialist and Socialists of Color Caucus stand in solidarity with the Black woman in DSA North Texas who was wrongfully suspended by DSA North Texas Co-chairs. This action by the DSA North Texas Co-chairs is racist and in particular anti-Black. This is not an isolated incident of racism but represents a pattern of anti-black and white supremacist actions within DSA which must be acknowledged, held accountable and systematically rooted out. There is a pattern of anti-black behavior that stems from the founding of DSA North Texas that has led to each generation of Co-chairs either perpetuating or being complicit in anti-black racism.
Signatories included Meg Wachter Los Angeles Democratic Socialists of America .[2]
