YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio – The new owners and publishers of the Buckeye Review will discuss their goals for the monthly publication at a Youngstown Press Club luncheon March 11.
The event will begin at noon in the Covelli Centre’s community room, 229 E. Front St.
Youngstown natives Dontaira Terrell, editor-in-chief of the Buckeye Review, and her sister, Zakkiyyah Terrell White, chief operating officer, will share their personal journeys back to the city, their goals for the 88-year-old publication and its deep ties to the community.
The Buckeye Review highlights the diversity and rich stories of marginalized Mahoning Valley communities and harnesses the power of storytelling to amplify voices often unheard.
