Dear Friends,
The Revolutionary Love Bus Tour is underway, and we are immensely grateful to have connected with thousands of you across the country. Being in beloved community with so many has brought us profound joy.
As we continue our journey, we hear your deep desire to connect with others who are practicing Revolutionary Love. That’s why we are overjoyed to announce our first Virtual Tea Date as part of our Fall Community Series. Our theme: Nurturing Joy in Chaotic Times. Led by our incredible team of educators at the Revolutionary Love Project, this gathering is an opportunity to stand together in love even as chaos consumes us. Sign up for our virtual tea date on Wed, Oct 9th at 5pm PT/8pm ET here.
Joy is the tenth practice on the Revolutionary Love Compass. To let in joy is to give our senses over to what is beautiful, delightful, pleasurable, or wondrous in the present moment. We can’t force joy, but we can make space for it come. Scroll down to explore our full compass!
As we head into another divisive election season, there are a million reasons not to feel joy right now. Is it possible to be awake to what’s happening in the world and be joyful? Are we allowed to feel joy when so many are suffering? History has taught us that some of the most courageous communities, in the face of great turmoil, still found time to sit together and eat together and laugh together. They were practicing joy.
Joy is our birthright. It’s our greatest act of moral resistance. Join us for an evening centered on the joy practice, filled with stories, resources, and hope in the face of despair. Register for our virtual tea date on Wed, Oct 9th at 5pm PT/8pm ET here.
In solidarity,
The Revolutionary Love Project Team

Start here with our introduction to the compass. We teach ten core practices of revolutionary love, backed by research and infused with ancestral wisdom. Imagine these practices as points on a compass. Point the compass toward whomever you want to practice loving— another, an opponent, or yourself. Decide what practice you need. You can use this compass as a tool in all arenas in your life.
