Today on Lake Effect, we learn about low-wage workers in Milwaukee and what those jobs mean for the people working them. Then, we look at what climate change means for the Great Lakes region. We learn about queer quilting workshops at the Milwaukee Institute of Art and Design. Plus, look at some of the history and traditions around Wisconsin food and drink staples.
