Had enough? You're not alone.

This weekend, SoCo DSA and 10+ allied orgs rallied in the name of Renee Good, the citizens of Venezuela, and all those beholden to American aggression, both at home and abroad.

If you joined us, thank you.

If you didn't, join us next time: www.socodsa.org

NO BLOOD FOR OIL.

Sonoma County DSA demands an immediate end to all U.S. intervention in Venezuela.

We encourage everyone to make their voices heard at the protests across the country this afternoon, including today’s protest at 3 PM in Santa Rosa’s Old Courthouse Square.
[1/3] Black graphic text on a red background reads "No Blood for Oil" with a drop coming off the word "oil." [2/3] Late last night, the Trump administration took illegal military action against Venezuela, bombing Caracas, a city of more than 3 million people. This morning, Trump has said that the United States will be “strongly involved” in Venezuela’s oil industry and that “we’re going to run the country.” Our government could not be more clear about their motivations: this is a war to annex oil fields to pad corporate profits. [3/3] We will be equally clear: no blood for oil. Sonoma County DSA stands strongly against this war and demands an immediate end to all U.S. intervention in Venezuela. We encourage everyone to make their voices heard at the protests across the country this afternoon, including today’s protest at 3 PM in Santa Rosa’s Old Courthouse Square.
