2026 Tea Talks | A Knock at Midnight: Black Preachers as Orators

Please ignore the attendance limit. If unable to register, please RSVP here.

The Black preacher has long held a sacred and central role in African American public speech. Beyond their role as religious leaders, preachers have historically served as political voices, cultural transmitters, community organizers, and skilled rhetoricians. This dialogue explores how the pulpit evolved into both a sanctuary and a platform for liberation, influencing the moral and political discourse within communities.
