''Democratic Left'' is the regular publication of the DSA that has run from the 1970s to the present. Issues from 2000 - 2010 are publicly available on the [http://www.dsausa.org/dl/ Democratic Left website]. The ''Newsletter of the Democratic Left'' was the forerunner of the ''Democratic Left'', and was published by the [[Democratic Socialist Organizing Committee]] (DSOC).

The [[Democratic Socialists of America]] (DSA) has 600 comrades in the [[Twin Cities]] who work closely with Antifa aligned groups. On May 27, 2020 the Twin Cities DSA issued a call on [[Twitter]] asking comrades for supplies at the same intersection where the Auto Zone burned to the ground. Later that evening the Marxist tweeted,
{{quotebox|Want to help out your comrades protesting at the 3rdf precinct? Here's a good list of much needed supplies.<ref>https://twitter.com/TwinCitiesDSA/status/1265774113693372417</ref>}}
The folks on the ground attached a list and included medical supplies, plywood for shields, anything else useful for shielding from the cops. Private cars were later requested. The tweet read,
{{quoteboz|Another big need: if you have a car, some folks may need a quick ride out of the area.}}
The Minneapolis Police 3rd precint building was evacuated and burnt down that evening. The Twin Cities DSA Ecosocialists Working Group tweeted to comrades
{{quotebox|support the ongoing mess working-class uprising!}}
On May 28, 2020 the DSA National Political Committee issued a statement in support of the rioters:
{{quotebox|We the National Political Committee of the Democratic Socialists of America condemn the public execution of George Floyd at the hands of the Minneapolis Police. His murder falls into the deeply entrenched pattern of violence, anti-Blackness, and oppression upheld by policing in this country.... This is white supremacy... We stand with and share the rage of all of those who are making themselves heard on the streets after years of being suffocated by policing and poverty after years of being looted by corporations landlords and billionaires."<ref>https://www.dsausa.org/statements/dsa-condemns-the-public-execution-of-george-floyd/</ref>}}
