The Recombobulation Area is a thirteen-time Milwaukee Press Club award-winning weekly opinion column and online publication founded by longtime Milwaukee journalist Dan Shafer. Learn more about it here.
We had a great night at Anodyne Coffee’s Walker’s Point Roastery for “Recombobulation LIVE!”
Dan Shafer, founder of The Recombobulation Area, was joined by award-winning contributors Angela Lang, executive director of Black Leaders Organizing for Communities (BLOC), and Philip Rocco, political science professor at Marquette University to discuss the Republican National Convention as it is about to descend upon Milwaukee and answer questions from the audience live during the show.
We were also joined by Stephanie Roades, organizer from The Great Milwaukee Block Party, a wonderful grassroots effort for counter-programming and protest and celebration of this wonderful city while the RNC is in town.
Learn more about this effort on their Facebook page here and Instagram here and Linktree here and be sure to check out some of the events happening all over Milwaukee at places you probably love.
The full podcast is available for paid subscribers only. You can also get a free trial to listen, but now would be a great time to upgrade to paid to support our work hosting events like this, and covering the RNC in Milwaukee next week.
There was some news shared in the podcast, too. So, be sure to listen.
This podcast was recorded, engineered and produced by Sahan Jayasuriya, for The Recombobulation Area.
This live podcast event was sponsored by gener8tor.
