900AM-WURD offers a unique two-way talk format that is widely recognized as the pulse of the African-American community - locally, regionally, and nationally. WURD has helped shape every major event in the region. From mayoral races to Presidential elections, from the street corner to the corner suite, WURD has tackled the hard issues as an influential, respected and powerful voice in the marketplace.
Beyond the airwaves, WURD has a robust interactive website 900AMWURD.com and a highly acclaimed symposium series – WURD Speaks. This event series gathers local, national and internationally renowned experts to share insights on issues ranging from health care, education and economic development to arts and culture and civic engagement.
Spreading our voice on-air, on-line and in-community has attracted creative partnerships with such blue chip clients as Universal Companies, PECO, Keystone Mercy Health Plan, United Health, Peirce College, Wells Fargo, and PNC Bank. Leading organizations like the Philadelphia Theatre Company, Art Sanctuary, the University of Penn and WHYY have also established strategic partnerships with WURD on several ground-breaking initiatives.
WURD has become a gathering point for the diverse voices that exist in the Delaware Valley. If you want to know what’s happening in the Black world, tune in to WURD. Whether it’s interviews with Heads of State, business leaders or local activists, we are, as our tagline explains, “the information station, committed to solutions.”
