Fire & Ink is where Black thought meets Black power. Hosted by me- Dr Hakim J Lucas, this podcast explores the wisdom of Black writers, thinkers, and revolutionaries—past and present—to shape the future of Black leadership. Drawing from the words of James Baldwin, bell hooks, W.E.B. Du Bois, Angela Davis, and many more, each episode dissects the lessons within their works and applies them to leadership, education, activism, and institutional transformation. 
Through deep conversation guest interviews and historical analysis Fire & Ink challenges listeners to think critically, lead boldly, and embrace the responsibility of shaping the future. Because Black words don’t just burn they illuminate the path forward. If you are going to be a leader, you must be a reader.
