Episode 7: Civic Engagement

In this episode, we take an in-depth look at civic engagement and the different forms in takes in Milwaukee. Through conversations with 6 civic leaders, we learn about the importance of local elections, the necessity of unbiased information, and the role community-based organizations play in the lives of citizens. And as always, we leave you with action steps you can take to engage with the city and community you love. The civic leaders featured are: Alderman José Pérez, Alderman Michael Murphy, Rob Henken of the Wisconsin Policy Forum, Dr. Amber Wichowsky from Marquette University, Keith Stanley of the Near West Side Partners, and Max Love from Our Wisconsin Revolution.
