Virtual Juneteenth MKE Week #LiberateMKE
Join us next week as we re-launch our campaign, LiberateMKE. We will be informing people on the campaign, highlighting why we need to reprioritize where we spend money and engaging in digital actions to make sure Milwaukee is divesting from violent policing infrastructure and investing in strengthening Black communities.
The line up will also include giveaways from local business owners and we’re working on a great way to close out our Friday evening with you all outside of the Twitter Storm!!! STAY TUNED!!
