Adam Vander Tuig and Joy James speak in this session recorded at Socialism 2025. This session was sponsored by the Highlander Center.
What are the “rebel chores,” the everyday educational, political, and spiritual commitments, that make revolutionary lovers? Often dismissed, what is the right relationship between spirituality and liberatory struggle? Can one be revolutionary without being religious? Concentrating on her upcoming book, Confronting Counterinsurgency: Cop Cities and Democracy’s Terrors, as well as many of her other recent works, political theorist Joy James engages these and other questions in dialogue with the Highlander Center’s faith-based educator and researcher Adam Vander Tuig.
The next Socialism Conference will be held in Chicago, September 4-7, 2026. Learn more about the Socialism Conference at www.socialismconference.org.
