DSA Convention 2019, Progressive Stack Procedures
The 2019 Democratic Socialists of America convention in Atlanta featured highly structured parliamentary procedures known as the "progressive stack." This system prioritized speakers from marginalized identities to ensure they were heard over others. The sessions were marked by frequent "points of information" and disputes handled by non-delegate marshals, leading to a slow and often contentious deliberative process.
