Description

Voices in Union: with Reggie Jackson and Maria Hamilton - is a weekly podcast that focuses on the African American Diaspora in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. It connects local concerns to national trends on social justice, and educates the general population on the historical context of those issues. The program’s purpose is to build understanding, with a message of hope and reconciliation, and to offer underrepresented voices a platform to be heard.

This episode was recorded just after Maria arrived in Washington DC to join the Milwaukee group led by Fran Nitty, which includes a wide ranging discussion about events there and the racial unrest in Kenosha that highlights the dilemma of Blacks loving a country that refuses to love them back.
