Milwaukee pride is at an all-time high. This week's Milwaukee Day celebration certainly hit that home, but does it sometimes seem like all the cheerleading surrounding the city seems a little... generic? This week on The Disclaimer, WMSE's weekly panel with Ryan Schleicher, Milwaukee Record editor Matt Wild and I, we take some time to consider how attitudes toward the city have shifted over the last decade, and dare to ask whether the city is really everything its biggest boosters make it out to be. What's driving this new, pro-Milwaukee fanaticism, and is the city out of touch for patting itself on the back when it still clearly has a long way to go in so many areas?
As always, we'd love to hear what you think. Join the conversation on our Facebook page. You can stream this week's episode below.
