About Redbud Pulse

Redbud Pulse is a vibrant force dedicated to capturing and amplifying the dynamic rhythm of Oklahoma's cultures. Our mission is to illuminate the state's vibrant, often overlooked, cultural flourishing through the powerful lenses of story, art, and the essential role of food.


Why "Redbud Pulse"? We are proudly named after the Eastern Redbud, Oklahoma's official state tree. Its annual explosion of crimson and pink signifies renewal and beauty emerging from the landscape. Paired with 'Redbud' is 'Pulse' — a word that speaks to the rhythm, energy, and ongoing vitality of Oklahoma's diverse cultural expressions – a constant heartbeat of creativity, resilience, and culinary innovation. Redbud Pulse seeks to highlight the renaissance of enduring traditions across our state's rich history and present.


Our Approach: We employ a cultural anthropological methodology, prioritizing deep research, oral histories, community engagement, and a nuanced understanding of cultural contexts. We believe in the power of stories, the universal language of art, and the profound connection forged through shared food to foster empathy, illuminate shared humanity, and celebrate unique identities.

Founder

Bana Tyson, a celebrated cultural anthropologist, marketer, and magazine publisher with over two decades of experience, is the driving force behind Redbud Pulse. Her fieldwork is shaped by the powerful intersection of two significant historical events: her uncle's survival of the Tulsa Race Massacre and her descent from Nat Turner, the leader of the largest slave rebellion in the United States.


Captivated by Oklahoma’s resilience and rich cultural tapestry, fueled her participation in the inaugural TulsaBound cohort in Fall 2024, revealed a city brimming with untold stories. From the echoes of Black Wall Street to the enduring traditions of Indigenous communities, she recognized the need for a cultural hub and magazine that would not only honor these stories but also celebrate the ongoing contributions of Oklahomans from all walks of life.
