GPTX Reading Group

September 17th will be the next meeting of our reading group. We'll be discussing the first 2 chapters of Hal Draper's "The Two Souls of Socialism." You can read it free here or here. Those chapters are pretty short, but if you can't finish them & still want to join the discussion, that's fine; we'll be glad to have you.

Green Party of Texas is inviting you to a scheduled Zoom meeting.

Topic: GPTX Reads
Time: Every month's second-to-last Sunday

Volunteer Opportunities

To help boost our social media posting frequency, a project has begun - a content calendar. If you have a little free time to research a month or just a week or two, so we have a backup topic for each day, email [email protected] to help out. There's hundreds of days in the year, but the more help we have, the easier it'll be.

The position of Secretary has become available on the State Executive Committee, as well as several seats on the National standing committees. At the Spring State Meeting, we filled a few seats, but many remain open. If you’re interested in serving in one of these positions, or would like to help with a smaller project, tell us at [email protected].

Are you an artist? The donation of a logo design or graphic for merch would be a great help. A button-making party could be a great activity for your local group, but maybe you have other fun ideas. Let us know!

Action Highlight

This month, we'd like to highlight the work of Young Active Labor Leaders (YALL), a division of the AFLCIO. Although the AFLCIO has made the baffling decision to endorse Biden in 2024, YALL has been supporting young Texan workers in taking collective action to better their workplaces, & we love that. Visit https://texasaflcio.org/yall to find out more.

If you know other organizations that are putting our key values in action, send us the info so we can get the word out.

In Solidarity,

Green Party of Texas
