4th STREET FORUM at MILWAUKEE TURNER HALL
ENEMIES EVERYWHERE: POLITICS AS WARFARE
Politics in Wisconsin seem to have degraded into a toxic mix of money, ideology and ego.
Now two senators, a Republican and a Democrat, have set out to find common ground.
Can they overcome Madison’s battlefield mentality?
Each forum is taped in front of a studio audience for later broadcast on Milwaukee Public Television, Channels 36.1 and 10.1. The forums are free and open to the public. Bring your lunch and a friend. Join the discussion.
FORUM DATE AND TIME: November 17, NOON
WHERE: Milwaukee Turner Hall, 2nd Floor, 1034 N. 4th Street
Main entrance across from the Bradley Center on 4th (elevator access off the parking lot on 4th and Highland)
