Later, an effort to solve a challenge in some Milwaukee neighborhoods: easy access to fresh food. And Reince Priebus’s unlikely rise from a Republican candidate in Kenosha to White House chief-of-staff.

  • Davita Flowers-Shanklin, Urban Ecology Center
  • Chris Simmons, clinical associate professor, Marquette University; Abby Busse, senior, Marquette; Tim McCullow, Homegrown Initiative, City of Milwaukee; Mary Andres, resident, Martin Drive neighborhood
  • Joe Potente, former reporter and editor, Kenosha News
