Monday on Lake Effect:
Our summer long agriculture series, Full Plate, continues with an exploration of how food, culture and memory intertwine. Then, Margaret Rozga looks back a half-century to the Milwaukee open housing marches she participated in. And, 20 years of being a female person of color in the workforce created some challenges for Mary Dowell. She hopes others can learn from her experiences.

- Margaret Rozga, professor emeritus of English at the University of Wisconsin-Waukesha and widow of James Groppi
- Mary Dowell,principal of MJ Dowell & Associates and author, Playing Through the Fence: Stories from 19 Women Who Challenged Stereotypes, Prejudice and Other Barriers to Achieve Career Success
