More Info

My journey with Soul Beat Network started when I was just a teenager. The original founder, Charles "Chuck" Johnson, took me under his wing, giving me a chance to learn, grow, and be a part of something special. Working at Soul Beat wasn’t just a job—it was my community, my family. Now, as I’m about to turn 50, I find myself in a full circle moment. I’m carrying forward the vision that shaped my youth, and it’s a privilege to have the opportunity to mentor and inspire the next generation, just like Chuck did for me.

Soul Beat Network has always been a cultural cornerstone in Oakland, amplifying our voices and keeping our community connected. But to keep this legacy alive, we need your help.

Your donations will be used for:

  • Operational costs to keep us running smoothly.
  • Purchasing new equipment so we can continue producing high-quality content.
  • Hiring staff to help us grow and expand our services.
  • Scaling our reach so we can better serve the community.

Most importantly, with your support, we’ll have the resources to keep our fingers on the community’s pulse and continue serving as the bridge between local government and the people. We’re committed to creating programming that uplifts, educates, and unites us all, but we can’t do it without you.

Join us in keeping Soul Beat’s legacy alive and building a stronger future for Oakland. Donate today and be part of the movement!
