A BETTER UPSTATE
SOUTH CAROLINA IS
POSSIBLE

LET'S BUILD IT TOGETHER.

GET STARTED

WE ARE UPSTATE SC DSA

We’re a chapter of the largest socialist organization in the U.S., the Democratic Socialists of America - DSA. We believe a better world is possible through socialism and we’re building that world right here in Upstate South Carolina.

The working class of South Carolina have been dominated by the wealthy for too long. We face unaffordable prices, data centers, failing health and education systems, over policing, terrible working conditions, and more to keep a select few private owners wealthy beyond their means.

As socialists, we know power comes from the people. Our goal is to build working class power to end that dominance and create a world where we can all live a dignified life.

If you want to build a better world, join us.
