The WBGO Story…Bright Moments from Newark to the World tells the story of how a small, diverse group of urban leaders and community activists looking to make a positive change in Newark, NJ, came together to create WBGO, New Jersey’s first public radio station. It tells how this small radio station owned by the Newark Board of Education was turned into a powerful cultural force that now reaches millions.

“I should have seen it coming” 60 second PSA

What does a crisis look like before it happens? It doesn’t always look like tears or shouting. Often, it looks like a friend, a brother, or a father simply being “quiet.”

A haunting part of this crisis is the aftermath, where friends and family are left with the crushing weight of: “I should have seen the signs.” But the reality is that, the signs of depression and distress often look different.  

This PSA is designed to directly address the dangerous hesitation we feel when we see a loved one in distress; it serves as a call to action, reminding us that reaching out to start a conversation is the most powerful intervention we can offer. By breaking the silence, we provide a life-saving bridge that ensures no man has to carry the weight of his struggle alone.”

Jazz is a National Treasure… Listen will examine what Jazz means—not just as music, but as a profound cultural force to artists and dedicated listeners alike.

This project aims to educate viewers about the significance, diversity, and benefits of listening to Jazz while introducing non-traditional audiences to the joy and experience of this timeless art form.
