Boston DSA is proud to honor three of Boston’s best activists:
» Jennifer Doe retiring from Jobs with Justice 
» Shelagh Foreman Program Director of Massachusetts Peace Action 
» Andi Mullin, Director of the Campaign for Our Communities 

Honorary Event Chairs:
Brian Corr, Cambridge Peace Commission*
Harris Gruman, SEIU*
Rep. Denise Provost
Rand Wilson, SEIU Local 888*
*affiliation given for identification purposes only.

Jennifer Doe has spent the last 10 years as an organizer for Jobs With
Justice, primarily responsible for worker organizing and labor support.
Prior to that she monitored and recovered workers’ back wages in Worcester
County for the Foundation for Fair Contracting, organized Community and
Political Outreach for the Pioneer Valley Building Trades, and headed
Research and Strategic Campaigns for the Laborers’ Union Eastern Region. 

Shelagh Foreman is Program Director of Massachusetts Peace Action (MAPA) and
a core member of 20/20 Action, an Amherst based peace and environmental
group. Shelagh has worked for more than three decades on nuclear
disarmament, represents Peace Action on the Political Committee of Mass
Alliance, and is chair of MAPA’s Iran Task Force. She is also a painter and
print maker who has studied art or taught art history at the Cooper Union,
Columbia University and the Museum School. 

Andi Mullin, Director of the Campaign for Our Communities, has led the
struggle to fund our state’s essential public services through progressive
taxation. From 2007–2011 Andi was Director of Legislation and Governmental
Affairs for the Massachusetts Nurses Association, and before that served as
Legislative Agent for AFSCME Council 93. She has also been in the leadership
of other progressive groups ranging from Mass Alliance and NOW to the
Committee for Boston Public Housing and RESPOND, which provides services to
battered women and their children. 

The awards our honorees will be given are named after DSA Founding Chair
Michael Harrington and A. Philip Randolph, or Gene Debs, Norman Thomas and
Julius Bernstein—all democratic socialist leaders of the last century active
in the labor, civil rights and peace movements of their time who embody the
values DSA seeks to carry on today. These awards have been given since 1977
to honor deserving activists; past recipients include Rand Wilson, Matt
Taibbi and Sen. Patricia Jehlen. Admission is $35 ($15 low income), which
includes hors d’oeurves and an open bar. So join us on June 7!
