Our Time Press Rescued: A Triumph for Community Journalism

In an unexpected turn of events, the beloved publication Our Time Press has announced that it will continue its operation, overcoming the challenges that threatened its existence just last week. Thanks to strategic cost-saving production changes, this iconic platform will not only survive but also adapt, transitioning to publish bi-weekly starting April 9th as the Our Time Press Bed Stuy Villager.

A Community United

The decision to keep the publication alive is a testament to the support and solidarity of the local community. David Greaves, President of DBG Media Publishers of Our Time Press, expressed immense gratitude towards the women who have backed the paper through advertising. This collaboration underscores the vital role local businesses and organizations play in sustaining community journalism.

Celebrating Supporters

Among those acknowledged are notable entrepreneurs such as Dr. Beatrice Kinsey of the P.E.A.C.E Health Center, Lurita Brown from Clinton Hill Simply Art & Framing Gallery, and Carolyn Butts from Reel Sisters, among others. Their commitment to supporting local media not only strengthens the publication but also enriches the community by providing a platform for voices that often go unheard.

This revival of Our Time Press signals a positive step forward, demonstrating the resilience of community-focused journalism in the face of adversity. It reminds us that, with collective effort and support, local endeavors can thrive, ensuring that essential stories and perspectives continue to be shared.
