The Milwaukee Neighborhood News Service is joining the Zeidler Group for its monthly discussion series, “Frank Talks.”

NNS recently published a collection of essays called “A New Way Forward,” in which the authors reflected on the lessons they learned during the pandemic and how they’ve informed their vision for a better Milwaukee. This month’s virtual discussion, “Frank Talk: A New Way Forward (Part 1),” features Kennita Hickman, Dom Portis and Sophia Torrijos and will take place from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m.

Following the panel discussion, attendees will have the opportunity to join breakout rooms and continue the conversation. Click here to register.

In case you missed it:

OPINION: The ‘starving artist’ was all too normal before the pandemic. Let’s not repeat that toxic trope.

OPINION: When it comes to our education system, it’s time to let young people lead the way

OPINION: The pandemic revealed massive inequities in our food system. We are working to rebuild it better.
