In this episode, Denée and Sean explore a new book by the Pinko Collective, After Accountability: A Critical Genealogy of a Concept. We discuss the older lineages of accountability in socialist organizations (including criticism/self-criticism), as well as more recent efforts like INCITE or Critical Resistance. The concept of “community” looms behind all these conversations (and this podcast), and the book offers some critical insight into the meaning of community in a revolutionary sense.

A Tender Riot will be going on hiatus for a bit this summer, but we may pop in with some guest hosts before we’re back up and running later this year!

The “Lesser Evil” and the Nonprofit Industrial Complex
Denée and Sean discuss the more sophisticated argument for pouring our energy into the Democratic Party electoral campaign, namely, the idea that fighting to get the “lesser evil” elected now will provide time and space for the left to build something beyond the Democratic Party trap. We also discuss whether getting Democrats elected is really a strategy for blocking or fighting fascism.
The provocation this week is a chapter from the book “The Revolution Will Not Be Funded” about the Nonprofit Industrial complex, the role of nonprofits within contemporary capitalism, and the effects that the nonprofit model has on left-wing organizing.
