Valarie burst into American consciousness in the wake of the 2016 election when her Watch Night Service address went viral with 40 million views worldwide. She leads the Revolutionary Love Project to reclaim love as a force for justice. VALARIE KAUR is a renowned civil rights leader, lawyer, award-winning filmmaker, educator, innovator, and best-selling author of SEE NO STRANGER. And when you are ready, sign up to take a 10-day course with me. I invite you to read my book SEE NO STRANGER: A Memoir and Manifesto of Revolutionary Love. Where to start?Įxplore our Learning Hub and all our free tools to bring revolutionary love into your life and community. We are simply reclaiming love for a new time. If any of this speaks to you, it’s because we are uncovering what is already inside you. Here you will find tools, practices, art, music, and a swiftly growing movement. This is a place to learn how to practice revolutionary love. From there, we begin to transform the world around us, and inside us. You can look at anyone and say: You are a part of me I don’t yet know.
Love is sweet labor - fierce, bloody, imperfect, life-giving, a choice we make. Revolutionary love is the choice to labor for others, for opponents, and for ourselves. Are you ready to practice revolutionary love? There is a way to find liberation here and now. You can face the horrors of the world and find longevity, resilience, and joy. You don’t have to make yourself suffer to serve. But you don’t have to grind your bones to the ground. I believe this is how we birth the world to come. A critical mass of people building beloved community – anti-racist, equitable and sustainable. My vision is to seed “pockets” of revolutionary love across the country and around the world. Revolutionary love is the call of our times. A new way of being and seeing that leaves no one outside our circle of care.
We need a shift in consciousness and culture. Sound government is necessary but not sufficient to transition us. I believe that we can birth that world together. A society awakened to the truth of our interdependence. Other days, I see glimpses of the nation, the world, wanting to be born. Some days are so deadly, I can taste the ash in my mouth. Is this the darkness of the tomb – or of the womb? I have fought for racial justice for twenty years.
