Vy Higginsen describes the variety of programming on and the power of black radio

I really enjoyed those early days. And we did - the format was a total Black experience in sound. And we would have different shades of Black, we'd call it. Another shade of Black. Gospel. Another shade of Black. Latin. And we'd go - and you could never get bored listening to the different varieties of sounds, and rhythms, and beats, and emotions, and moods. And we would clearly set the pace and the mood for the day. And I took going into peoples' homes very seriously because the power of radio I thought was so great. I mean, how does sitting in this room allow me to come into your bathroom, and your bedroom, and your living room? And it was astonishing, you know, that that existed without seeing it. You know? That power existed. So, all you had to do was turn on that switch and you could tune in to a frequency. And I respected that. You know? And I wanted to, perhaps, do or say something that might make a difference in somebody's life if they chose to turn the radio on that day. And that was a personal and private goal.
