Dreaming In Blackness

Audio Nuggets: Mining For Gold

Welcome to the cypher! Audio Nuggets is back, as fierce as ever, for 2025. We are turning the page. Another beginning, a new season, and for a lot of us; so much work to be done. Get ready to experience the rhythm of the cypher with our friend and guest, MiDian Shofner for Dreaming In Blackness.

MiDian Shofner embodies the essence of Denver, Colorado. Influenced by the indomitable spirit and wisdom of her forebears, MiDian has forged her path of leadership steeped in the traditions of advocacy, faith, and activism. As the CEO of the Epitome of Black Excellence & Partnership and the Owner/Founder of 8PM Consulting for Humanity, MiDian brings an unwavering commitment to racial justice.

This is a conversation grounded in liberation of the mind, body, soul, and spirit. The episode explores Black culture as being coveted, and how being accountable to our own humanity will allow us to live in all our bigness and all of our radiant shine. With a firm reminder of the place that Black bodies sit today is because of the dreaming that the ancestors had, to experience the liberated minds of today. Dreaming in Blackness means that we begin to unlearn the conditioning of the oppressor and move toward embracing and being captivated by the conditioning that our ancestors gave us; the vision of freedom.

MiDian gifts the cypher with a demonstration of intentional love and liberation. It is magnified. It is palpable. In turning the page into 2025, let us all remember the joy in love, and remember what we are saying YES to! What we pay attention to will grow.
