Addressing the Firestorm: Ask Angela Tackles the Disparaging Article Against the Historic Greenwood Chamber of Commerce

Tulsa, OK – March 5, 2025

On Thursday, March 6, 2025, at 9:00 AM CST, Ask Angela with Dr. Angela K. Chambers will take a bold stand on The Greenwood Beat – WFPG, addressing the controversial and misleading article published by a Black media outlet against the Historic Greenwood Chamber of Commerce—the organization representing the original Black Wall Street District.

This irresponsible and damaging article, riddled with falsehoods and misrepresentations, not only attacked the Historic Greenwood Chamber of Commerce but also harmed our entire community. The consequences of such reckless journalism extend far beyond the printed words—it threatens the unity, progress, and economic stability of Black Wall Street and its ongoing legacy.

 

The Call for Truth and Accountability

It is outrageous that a Black-owned media outlet would choose to publish an article that seeks to discredit and tear down one of the most significant institutions working to preserve and promote the legacy of Greenwood.

Instead of standing in solidarity and uplifting the businesses, organizations, and leaders committed to revitalizing the spirit of Black Wall Street, this outlet chose to spread lies, confusion, and division—an action that should outrage every member of our community.

We should all be demanding an apology, not only for the Historic Greenwood Chamber of Commerce but for the entire community that continues to fight for progress, truth, and economic empowerment.

 

Time to Move Forward with Truth

While this article attempted to derail the efforts of Greenwood’s leadership, we must not be distracted from the work that still needs to be done.

On Ask Angela, Dr. Angela K. Chambers will set the record straight and lead an open, transparent, and honest discussion on:

✅ The truth about the Historic Greenwood Chamber of Commerce and its mission.

✅ The impact of misleading media and why fact-checking is essential.

✅ How divisive narratives hurt our community and what we must do to move forward.

✅ A call for responsible journalism within Black media.

Join the Conversation!

This is a discussion that everyone in the community needs to hear. If you care about truth, integrity, and the future of Black Wall Street, tune in and participate in this critical conversation.

📅 Date: Thursday, March 6, 2025

⏰ Time: 9 AM CST

The Path Forward: Rebuilding and Strengthening Our Community

As we expose the truth and demand accountability, we must also focus on solutions. This is not just about responding to negativity—it is about coming together as a community, ensuring that Greenwood’s legacy remains intact, and continuing the work of economic and cultural revitalization.

Instead of tearing each other down, it’s time to build together. Let’s have the difficult but necessary conversations. Let’s demand better journalism, accurate representation, and unity within Black media and leadership.

Join Dr. Angela K. Chambers and The Greenwood Beat – WFPG as we move forward with truth, resilience, and commitment to a stronger Black Wall Street.
