African American oratory has long been a transformative force in U.S. history, serving as both cultural expression and a tool of resistance that is still needed today. Inspired by Senator Cory Booker’s historic speech in Congress—the longest ever delivered in its chambers—BHTNH’s 2026 Tea Talk Series will honor the enduring legacy of African American speech as both art and activism.

Rooted in African storytelling traditions, Black voices have shaped the nation’s conscience—from church pulpits to legislative halls, from local communities to global stages. This series of community dialogues will illuminate the power, poetry, and persistence of African American oratory to inspire social reform and build a more democratic Union.

Honoring the spoken word tradition, this year’s series opens with a poem recited by a guest poet.
