Black Oak Media is the spearhead of a direct assault on the innocuous, monolithic Britney Spears culture, and represents an atavism of a primordial humanism that unapologetically embraces all ranges of human emotion and experience.

Life isn't an airbrushed model on a glossy magazine cover. Los Angeles and New York City do not represent our culture. Here at Black Oak Media, we believe that the people who live in "Middle America" have something to contribute. Our culture is not something that is marketed to the public from distant boardrooms, it is produced by the blood, sweat, and tears of the people living on the land. It is the artistic expression of our hopes, dreams, and fears. Culture is created and passed down from our ancestors, to and from us, to our children. It is something meaningful that does not ride waves of trends or conform to market interests.

We acknowledge and embrace life as an artistic creation, a subjective construction with the individual as an organic player positing his or her own values and experience into the wider social milieu. The illusion of absolute truth has crumbled: there is only the will to create and self-overcome.
