The Serious Work of Political Theology
Political theology has much to contribute toward unraveling the threads that uphold carcerality. As a negative project, political theology offers us grounding for critique. As a positive program, it can help us to stitch together old fragments into new patterns that might nudge us towards an abolitionist horizon.

On Prison Towns and Ethnographic Entanglements
Using the Language of Christian Love and Charity
