Today on Lake Effect, we hear from two Black Milwaukeeans who are sharing their love of nature with the community. Then, we look at a book on diversity, equity, and inclusion work and how it can help both employees and employers. We learn how a UW-Milwaukee student made his dreams come true, by becoming a Mars rover operator. Plus, learn about some of the most tragic and notable shipwrecks that have happened on the Great Lakes.
