Community Partners
Tosa Together – Founded in 2016, Tosa Together aims to teach and research the history of Wauwatosa’s exclusionary past, learn from Wauwatosa residents of color, converse with and challenge public officials who have the power to enact change, and perpetually dream about where our city could be someday.
Bay Bridge – Founded in 2019, Bay Bridge envisions a Whitefish Bay will be a welcoming community that recognizes systemic racism, and actively works to address and dismantle it. They aim to upport all Whitefish Bay residents’ anti-racist journeys, and to be a catalyst for change in our Village governing bodies and schools. It is our responsibility to identify and work to dismantle those systems.
Walnut Way – Walnut Way Conservation Corps is a non-profit organization based in the Lindsay Heights neighborhood of Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Our mission is centered around “Community-Led Comprehensive Development.” This approach aims to empower community members to drive their own change, with Walnut Way serving as a facilitator and supporter.
Redress Movement – The Redress Movement initially emerged in response to Richard Rothstein’s book, The Color of Law, which documents the intentional laws, covenants, and processes that created housing segregation along with other seminal works published in recent years. Awareness of these truths, coupled with the unprecedented participation of 20 million Americans of all races and ethnicities in the spring and summer of 2020, in Black Lives Matter demonstrations, convinces us that a new movement to redress racial segregation is possible, if only we take the steps needed to help organize it.
