Today on Lake Effect, we share the history of Juneteenth and look at how Milwaukee celebrates. Then, we learn about the Underground Railroad’s connections in Wisconsin – and what it says about our history. Plus, we’re celebrating ten years of Bubbler Talk by listening back to old episodes. Today features our story about Milwaukee's Public Natatorium.
Guests:
- Dr. Robert Baker, director of undergraduate studies in the department of African & African Diaspora Studies at UW-Milwaukee
