🎙️ I Lead in Any Room Podcast with Bishop Geoffrey Dudley

Episode Title: You Can Only Dream When It’s Dark

It feels dark in America.

From the reshaping of civil rights narratives…
To the removal of Black history from national institutions…
From attacks on DEI to the distortion of Christianity in the name of nationalism…
From wrongful detentions of American citizens to the erasing of uncomfortable truths…

The question is not whether it’s dark.
The question is: What do we do when it’s dark?

In this powerful and unapologetic episode, Bishop Geoffrey Dudley confronts the cultural, political, and spiritual tensions shaping this moment in American history. He explores how darkness has always been the backdrop for divine dreaming — and how African Americans have historically advanced democracy, citizenship, justice, and race relations not in comfort, but in contradiction.

Drawing from the moral framework of The 1619 Project, the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., and biblical truth, Bishop Dudley reframes the narrative:

• Democracy expanded because Black Americans pushed it open.
• Citizenship deepened because Black Americans demanded it.
• Justice matured because Black Americans refused to accept injustice.
• Hope survived because Black Americans kept dreaming.

This is not a political rant.
This is a prophetic reckoning.

Because dreams are not born in daylight.
Dreams are born in darkness.

And as Scripture reminds us, “The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness comprehends it not.”

If you are wrestling with the times, questioning the climate, or wondering how faith responds to cultural chaos — this episode will challenge you to lead, to think, and to dream… even now.

Because it’s not too dark.

It’s dark enough to dream.
