Help Tulsa’s First Women-Owned Radio Station Buy New Equipment
We are thrilled to announce the launch of a groundbreaking project in the heart of Greenwood District, aka the Original Black Wall Street – The Greenwood Beat: WFPG. I’m Angela K. Chambers, the CEO and owner of the first women-owned radio station in the entire Tulsa.
Who Are We?
I’m Angela K. Chambers, a serial entrepreneur, community activist, and author. I’ve previously served as the First Vice President of the NAACP Tulsa branch. Moreover, I’m the co-founder of the Oklahoma Black-Owned Business Network and have been hosting the radio show “Refocused & Informed Radio Talk Show” since January 2022.
I laid the foundation of this community radio station with my partner and COO of the Greenwood Beat, Francetta L. Mays, who is the Associate Pastor at Vernon A.M.E. Church and President of NAACP Tulsa branch#6143.
Together, we strive to give a much-needed voice to the people of Tulsa and make a positive impact on the community. Now we need your support to bring our vision to life. Therefore, we are launching a fundraising campaign to raise $75K for the completion of our station setup and purchase of essential equipment for radio station operations.

Let’s support the first black female-owned radio station in Oklahoma! The Greenwood Beat – WFPG

 

WFPG launched June 8, 2023 in the Historic Greenwood District AKA The Original Black Wall Street located in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

All eyes are on Greenwood after Americans are learning and sharing the story of the 1921 Race Massacre that happened in Tulsa on Greenwood, which destroyed 35 square miles of black owned businesses and homes.

Dr. Angela K. Chambers started The Greenwood Beat – WFPG with friend, business partner and prayer warrior partner Dr. Francetta L. Mays. Together they have created an amazing platform to aid in bridging the community, families, organizations and agencies for a better Tulsa for all.

The station has programming for 24/7, 365 days per year consisting of music, radio shows, inspiration, education, history and sports.

Both ladies host the Refocused and Informed Radio Talk Show, which is the anchor show. Angela serves as the Chief Executive Officer and recently surprised Francetta, Chief Operations Officer and listeners with the news of the show’s syndication.
