Marxist Unity Group Applications
MUG applications are currently closed, but thank you for your interest! We generally host reading groups in the spring and fall.
Sign up to be notified when the next application cycle opens here.
Information for applicants
Please review the following before applying:
The application process involves an intake interview, a ten week reading group (link to reader here), and a second interview.
Applicants should have a basic understanding of Marxism, but do not need to be developed DSA cadres. Reading group participation aims to transform participants' political analysis and develop political alignment.Participation in the reading group does not guarantee admission to MUG. The goal of the reading group is to bring applicants to the level of understanding of Marxist theory that they can meaningfully align with the following points:
Commitment to a long-term struggle in DSA
Agreement with a majority of the Points of Unity
Acceptance of all points as the group’s democratically-elaborated mission
An overall understanding of the concepts in the reader.
Readiness to advance all MUG initiatives in their local chapter work, while retaining the right to criticize them in their personal capacity.
