Today We Start Year 3 of The Greenwood Beat – WFPG: Rebuilding Black Wall Street One Beat at a Time


Tulsa, Oklahoma – June 8, 2025

🎉 Today marks a powerful new chapter in our story — The Greenwood Beat – WFPG officially enters Year 3 of broadcasting from the sacred grounds of historic Greenwood Avenue, the original Black Wall Street.

Founded by Dr. Angela K. Chambers, Ph.D., The Greenwood Beat was launched as a bold answer to the call for culturally-rooted, community-centered Black-owned media. As Oklahoma’s first woman-owned and first-ever radio station on historic Greenwood, WFPG is more than a station — it’s a movement.


🖤 Two Years of Power, Purpose & Progress

Over the past two years, we’ve stayed committed to our mission: Rebuilding Black Wall Street one beat at a time. From radio shows and business interviews to national campaigns and youth engagement, our programming reflects the resilience and brilliance of our people.

Highlights from the journey so far:

  • Radio shows that make an impact: Ask Angela, HopeHop Multimedia Podcast, Trumpet on Greenwood, Talkin Wit Trus and more

  • Groundbreaking events like Greenwood Literary Voices and The Black Wall Street Shopping Network

  • Cultural and community advocacy: speaking up for the Greenwood Chamber of Commerce and fighting for the preservation of our district

  • Business empowerment tools like our Virtual Business Address program and promo opportunities for Black entrepreneurs

“This isn’t just about radio,” says Dr. Chambers. “It’s about reclaiming our narrative and protecting our legacy while opening doors for the next generation of Black media voices.”


🎯 What’s Ahead in Year 3

With a solid foundation, The Greenwood Beat is just getting started. In Year 3, expect:

More shows
More youth voices and training programs
Syndication expansion and national exposure
More community events and campaigns
Deeper partnerships with businesses and nonprofits
More opportunities to advertise, support, and join the movement

💬 Closing Note from the Founder

“I’m so grateful for everyone who has tuned in, supported, advertised, and stood with us. This station was built for Greenwood and by Greenwood. We are proud to lead from the front — with honor, legacy, and truth. Let’s turn it up in Year 3!”
– Dr. Angela K. Chambers, Ph.D., Founder & CEO
