Voices of Milwaukee Bronzeville

May 19, 2022 @ 6:30 pm - 7:30 pm

Milwaukee author and historian Dr. Sandra E. Jones will join us to discuss her new book. She will share recollections with some of the featured subjects from the book, including Ms. Sharon Adams. Mr. Samuel Sims of Five Points Neighborhood Association will share some of his stories as well.

“Some people don’t have to imagine what Milwaukee’s Bronzeville was like. They have only to remember. …. Above all they recollect a people looking out for the well-being of all within its realm. Gathering interviews with residents of the now-vanished neighborhood, Dr. Sandra E. Jones reimagines Bronzeville not just as a place, but as a spirit engendered by a people determined to make a way out of no way.”

Dr. Sandra E. Jones will be in conversation with residents of Milwaukee’s Bronzeville at this hybrid event on May 19, 6:30 – 7:30 pm .
