From the very first day The Greenwood Beat – WFPG launched its airwaves, one voice has consistently echoed through the station with purpose, power, and passion: Minister Alvin Muhammad. As the Chief Sustainability Officer of Oklahoma’s first woman-owned radio station on the historic Greenwood Avenue, Minister Muhammad has played an instrumental role in laying the foundation and fueling the mission of this groundbreaking media outlet.

Not only has he been a steady hand in support, but also a pillar of strength behind the scenes. With financial contributions and an unwavering commitment, he built his signature show Trumpet on Greenwood, which proudly stands as the longest-running broadcasted show from the iconic Greenwood Avenue — once known as the original Black Wall Street.

Airing every Sunday at 1:30 PM CST, Trumpet on Greenwood is more than a radio show; it’s a movement. Minister Muhammad uses the platform to speak life into the community, offering wisdom, cultural insight, and truth designed to uplift and educate listeners across generations. Whether he’s discussing community issues, offering spiritual guidance, or highlighting Black excellence, his message resonates deeply with audiences seeking growth and empowerment.

But Minister Muhammad’s impact extends well beyond the microphone. As the founder of Superior Outdoor Services, Inc., he provides jobs and training opportunities in lawn maintenance and landscaping throughout the Tulsa metro area. His work in this field reflects his dedication not just to business, but to building people — giving others the tools to work, provide, and take pride in their skills.

A man of deep faith, Minister Muhammad is also a loving husband, devoted father, and a very proud grandfather. He is a mentor and a respected advocate, constantly urging the culture to strive for more, to rise above, and to build stronger futures rooted in unity and excellence.

His partnership with Dr. Angela K. Chambers, Founder and CEO of The Greenwood Beat – WFPG, has been essential in the station’s growth and sustainability. Together, along with Co-Owner and COO, Starr Fisher, they continue to make history while honoring the legacy of those who came before — ensuring that Greenwood remains a beacon of strength and possibility.

As Dr. Chambers often says, The Greenwood Beat – WFPG is “Rebuilding Black Wall Street one beat at a time.” And with leaders like Minister Alvin Muhammad holding the trumpet, the message is clear and the mission is alive.

Tune in every Sunday at 1:30 PM CST to Trumpet on Greenwood on www.thegreenwoodbeat.com and experience the voice, the vision, and the vibration of a true community servant.

Celebrating Women’s History Month

By The Greenwood Beat – WFPG

During Women’s History Month, we proudly honor Veronica Harrison, a dynamic leader whose work continues to uplift and empower Black entrepreneurs across Oklahoma. As the Founder and CEO of Permits and Processing Agents, LlC, and the driving force behind the Oklahoma Black Business Network (OBBN) and Oklahoma City Black Owned Business Guide Magazine, Harrison has cemented her legacy as a champion for Black-owned businesses, a beacon of support, and a true advocate for economic growth in the community.

A Visionary Leader

Harrison’s passion for business development and advocacy stems from a deep commitment to seeing Black-owned enterprises not only survive but thrive. Through Processing and Permits Agents, she has played a crucial role in helping business owners navigate regulatory hurdles, securing the necessary permits and licenses needed to operate successfully. Her expertise has saved businesses time, money, and stress—removing barriers that often hinder entrepreneurial progress.

Beyond her professional services, Harrison has cultivated a powerful and resourceful network through the Oklahoma Black Business Network (OBBN), an organization dedicated to connecting Black entrepreneurs with essential resources, opportunities, and community support. She further extends her influence through the Oklahoma Black Business Network Magazine, a platform that shines a spotlight on Black excellence, featuring and celebrating businesses that deserve recognition.

Empowering Black Women in Business

As a Black woman in leadership, Harrison understands the unique challenges women entrepreneurs face, particularly in industries where representation is lacking. She has used her voice and platform to advocate for equity, visibility, and access—ensuring that Black women business owners have a seat at the table. Through mentorship, networking events, and features in OBBN Magazine, she has amplified the voices of countless women entrepreneurs, inspiring the next generation of business leaders.

A Lasting Impact

Veronica Harrison’s dedication to Black business growth in Oklahoma is nothing short of historic. Her contributions align with the spirit of Women’s History Month—celebrating trailblazing women who create change, foster empowerment, and build lasting legacies. She has made it her mission to uplift the community, ensuring that Black entrepreneurs not only gain visibility but also receive the necessary support to sustain and scale their businesses.

At The Greenwood Beat – WFPG, we celebrate Veronica Harrison for her unwavering commitment, leadership, and service. Her work continues to transform the economic landscape for Black businesses in Oklahoma, leaving an impact that will be felt for generations to come.

Thank you, Veronica Harrison, for making history today and every day!

The spirit of the holiday season was alive and vibrant on Friday night as The Greenwood Beat – WFPG proudly took part in the 2024 Claremore Christmas Parade. The event drew large crowds, filling the streets with festive cheer, twinkling lights, and the unmistakable sound of Christmas melodies.

A highlight of the night captured Honour Rose, the charismatic host of The Honour Society show on WFPG, posing in front of a beautifully adorned “Merry Christmas” banner. The banner, a centerpiece of the parade’s decorations, featured the logos of Music Giving Hope, Ike’s Chili, Tunes & Spoons, and The Greenwood Beat – WFPG—an ensemble of organizations and businesses that capture the spirit of community and giving.

The Greenwood Beat – WFPG’s participation underscored its ongoing commitment to celebrating and uplifting local communities. With a lineup of Christmas carols and engaging commentary from Honour Rose, the station’s presence added an extra sparkle to the night.

Looking Ahead: Tunes & Spoons 2025

While the Christmas Parade marked a joyous close to 2024, Claremore is already gearing up for another major community event: the Tunes & Spoons Chili Cook-Off and Music Festival, set for August 22-24, 2025. Created by the late Tito Jackson and his visionary team, this annual festival will become a beloved tradition in the City of Claremore.

Tito was a proud Oklahoma resident and his vision for Tunes and Spoons developed after the tornadoes came thru and destroyed parts of Claremore, what he affectionately called his “hometown”. He wanted to help rebuild his community and purchase uniforms for the first responders in Claremore.

Combining mouthwatering chili recipes with live music performances, the festival continues to honor Tito Jackson’s legacy of bringing people together through food, music, and community. With WFPG and other local organizations supporting the event, it promises to be a highlight of next summer.

As Claremore continues to celebrate its unique traditions, The Greenwood Beat – WFPG remains a steadfast partner in telling the stories that bring the community closer. Whether it’s lighting up the night during the Christmas parade or amplifying the excitement of the Tunes & Spoons festival, WFPG is proud to be at the heart of it all.
