Monday on Lake Effect:
We unpack some of the new reforms at the Milwaukee Police Department, in light of the recent stop-and-frisk settlement agreement. Then, charter schools that contract with MPS sometimes disagree about how funding is distributed. A researcher digs into the numbers behind the controversy. Essayist Linda Flashinski reflects on how little we really know each other; a new initiative to light the Hoan bridge hopes to spur civic pride and revenue growth in the City of Milwaukee; and we’ll chat with the multi-talented Ben Folds ahead of his Thursday concert in Milwaukee.
Guests:
- Gretchen Schuldt, Wisconsin Justice Initiative
- Anne Chapman, Wisconsin Policy Forum
- Linda Flashinski, essayist
- Lori Richards, Mueller Communications
- Ben Folds, musician
