About Dreaming in Color
The equitable future we seek requires celebrating the genius of today’s leaders of color. In Dreaming in Color, hear from champions in the charge for equity and justice. Hosted by Darren Isom, a partner in the The Bridgespan Group’s San Francisco office, this podcast offers leaders of color space to share how they have leveraged their unique assets and abilities to embrace excellence, drive impact, and more fully define what success looks like. Grounded in both his New Orleans roots and his experience as a queer Black leader in the social sector, Darren invites listeners into the candid kitchen table conversations that have long helped shape the journeys of BIPOC leaders. Together, we embrace these leaders’ ingenuity, learn from their wisdom and wit, reflect on their words with authenticity and humor, and listen as we think of how we can collectively strive to do and be better. This is Dreaming in Color.

[…] Because water and land together are what make life possible. And They are not the same thing, but they are definitely something that all humans need to live. And to become connected to the things that sustain you is the first step in understanding a different kind of paradigm that a lot of people have chosen to be indoor humans that are devoid of relationships. And a lot of people say that human rights are the most important things. And if that's all that's the most important things, then we've really lost our way because humans aren't the only part of creation. We have a lot of relatives and we have a responsibility to those relatives. […]
