WHO WE ARE
One of A Kind

Established in 1961, WUFO is the only African American owned radio station in Western New York. In 2013, WUFO was purchased by Sheila L. Brown of Vision Multi Media Group (VMMG) and True Bethel Community Development Corporation, making it WNY’s first black, female-owned station. Brown is a well-respected icon in the community and hopes to open a not-for-profit Black History Collective, the first of its kind in the country. You can visit and see how a radio station operates. WUFO has provided America with popular African American radio personalities, including Frankie Crocker, Gary Byrd, Jerry Bledsoe, Thelka McCall, Dwayne Dancer Donovan, Don Allen, Don Mullins, and many more!
OUR MISSION
WUFO Black Radio History Collective is dedicated to preserving African American radio culture of Western New York. The Collective strives to inspire cultural, intellectual, and community involvement through special events and exhibitions featuring icons and musical legends.
