Hi Cousins! Periodically, I’ll be sharing the work of Boston Herald journalist, Laura Onyeneho. Sis, goes into that newsroom everyday and fights for our stories to be told and, I for one, want to do my part in supporting her work. You can too, by simply watching and sharing the video. If you have a story that you believe is news worthy and would like Laura to cover, shoot your shot and send her an email at lonyeneho@bostonherald.com.
