WCHB wasn’t just a radio station—it was a bold move that changed Detroit’s airwaves forever. In 1956, Dr. Haley Bell and Dr. Wendell Cox built WCHB from the ground up, making it the first Black-owned and operated FCC-licensed station in the U.S. This was more than music and talk; it was a lifeline for Detroit’s Black community, offering a platform for voices and stories that had been overlooked. Annette Bass, part of the Bell family, is now working to preserve this powerful legacy for future generations. How do you think local media shapes our neighborhoods today? #Entertainment #DetroitHistory #BlackExcellence
