Wednesday on Lake Effect: Lead Paint Contamination, Father Tim Kitzke, Rogue Valley

Wednesday on Lake Effect:

It takes a village to tackle a community-wide problem, like keeping old lead paint from poisoning kids. We learn about the Growing Healthy Soil For Healthy Communities project, which teaches Milwaukee gardeners about lead contamination. Then, the story of a Milwaukee priest some see as a rock star for his work as an urban vicar. And the members of Rogue Valley explain how they went about writing the songs on their new album, Radiate/Dissolve.

Guests:

  • Growing Healthy Soil for Healthy Communities project leaders; Susan Bence, WUWM environmental reporter
  • Tom Tolan, Milwaukee Magazine
  • Rogue Valley, band
