Mission Statment

The mission of the Brown chapter of Students for a Democratic Society is to facilitate discourse and collaboration among progressive student groups. Our goal is to bring together groups that are working towards social justice in the areas of antiwar action, racial and gender equality, immigrants’ and workers’ rights, environmental action, anti-poverty action, and other important arenas of social change. Because many progressive organizations at Brown share at least some common goals, we believe that these groups should communicate and cooperate to plan events, lobby the administration for desired changes, and raise awareness and support among our fellow students and the greater community. We envision a community of progressives working together to enkindle activism at Brown, through collective communication and collective action.
