Wednesday On Lake Effect: Informed Voter, Black Maternal Health At Catholic Hospitals, 'Time Trial'

Wednesday on Lake Effect:

Our Informed Voter series looks at how public opinion polls are conducted, and how the media covers them. Then a study looks at how ethical religious directives impact the health of black women giving birth at Catholic hospitals, and Radio Chipstone introduces us to a Wisconsin luthier. Plus, with the Milwaukee Film Festival about to get underway, we look ahead to Time Trial, a sports documentary that may not be about sports at all.

Guests:

  • Charles Franklin, Marquette Law School poll director; Craig Gilbert, Milwaukee Journal Sentinel Washington bureau chief
  • Kira Shepherd, director of Columbia Law School’s Racial Justice Program at the Public Rights Private Conscience Project
  • Alex Hohlstein, luthier; Gianofer Fields, material culture contributor
  • Finlay Pretsell, director, Time Trial
