See more watts, with a radiated power of 270 watts, covering San Francisco, Oakland, and the Bay Area. KPOO gives voice to the concerns of low income communities in San Francisco. Founded by Poor People's Radio, Inc., KPOO's ongoing mission has been to open the airwaves to the disenfranchised and underserved. Our station broadcasts news, public meetings, election, live events, interviews, public service announcements and music not heard on any other radio stations. As such, KPOO has continued to have a very loyal listening audience. KPOO specializes in jazz, reggae, salsa, blues, gospel, and hip hop music. KPOO serves the Bay Area's Latin community with several bilingual programs a week, and also produces programs concerning Irish Americans, Arab Americans, women issues and Native American concerns. KPOO broadcasts live the weekly meeting of the San Francisco Redevelopment Agency and non-stop election night coverage. KPOO also uses the airways to educate the community about important issues such as AIDS prevention, health concerns, use of the new technologies, prison affairs, and consumer protection. KPOO Radio has always operated with a volunteer staff. Volunteers range from community people, students, musicians, community activists, actors, doctors, attorneys, young people, seniors, blind and disabled, record collectors, and (of course) broadcasters and engineers. ------ Shows: Blues For Night Owls, A Love Supreme, Andanzas, Arab Talk, Blues Quest, Bombay Mix, Con Clave, Connecting the Dots, Do I Move You, Fillmore Interview, Fire Music, Ghetto Gumbo, Gospel Caravan, Grinders Grooveyard, Hugh E MC, Ion Lion, Jivin' Around, JJ On D Radio, Johnny Brooklyn Show, Jumpstart, Just Chillin', La Verdad Musical, Lover’s Lounge, Mal Amazin', Morning Drive, News, On The Spot, Open Mic, Overnight Music, Pajaro Latino–Americano, Prison Focus, Reality Sandwich, Reggae Soul Revolution, Renter Radio, Roots & Culture, Seldom Heard Soul, Soul Radio, Sounds of the City, The Autumn King Show, The Jazz Workshop, The Nightfly, The Overnight Music Express, The Power of Blues Compels You, The Spirit of Joe Rudolph, Tuesday Morning Blues Show, Uplift!
