WISCONSIN VOICES’
2021 RISING LEADERS
Wisconsin Voices announces its 2021 Civic Action “Rising Leaders” Partners.
These community leaders engaged and supported residents in communities whose
challenges have not been addressed by our democratic system. “Our Civic Action
projects strengthened connections between community residents, helped them learn
about issues and increased local civic participation,” said Felice Green, Chief Com-
munications Director Wisconsin Voices.
Rising Leaders Partnership grants were awarded to new partners of Wisconsin Voices — in-
dividual or organizational leaders — that are using innovative strategies and growing their
skill set to increase civic engagement in under-served communities. These are our 2021 re-
grantees.
Vaun mayes LaShondra Scott Nadiyah Johnson, CEO and Founder of the Milky Way Tech Hub, advocated for better rep-
resentation of Black information technology professionals and entrepreneurs in the Milwaukee
tech space. Wisconsin Gov. Tony Evers recognized her efforts by naming October Wisconsin
Tech Month. She hosted 35 Wisconsin Tech Month awareness events with 500 people partic-
ipating overall. She also organized a Tech Lobby Day to help others share their stories with
elected officials.
Vaun Mayes, Founder and Activist of Program the Parks MKE and ComForce MKE, re-
launched his Activist & Advocacy Podcast with new studio equipment and streaming technol-
ogy this summer. He hosted eight podcasts with youth leaders from the Sherman Park Youth
Initiative. Topics ranged from youth violence, stollies, the John Lewis Voting Rights Act to
redistricting and the People’s Maps Commission. Vaun’s summer podcasts attracted a sizable
audience that included 11,801 views, 1,200 followers and 1,827 comments.
LaShondra Scott, Executive Producer of The 411 Live with Neo Soul Productions, devel-
oped and produced a series of four educational programs about the impact of redistricting and

we can. And in fact, we must eliminate racism and that's what the
Secure
National Day of Racial Healing is all about. It's a time for com-
munities to come together and embrace and honor the humanity of
all people.”
Her complete video message is available HERE.
In the video, Dr. Christopher asserts that America must “be truth-
homefield ful” about its legacy of racism which dates back to our inception as
a nation. Nonetheless, she says we must move forward, adding, “It's
time to envision a future, a future in which we have actually ad-
advantage dressed racism.”
Moreover, Dr. Christopher offers support for a national TRHT
Commission. California Rep. Barbara Lee and New Jersey Sen.
with 37-10 Cory Booker have introduced measures in the House and Senate.
More than 300 organizations support Rep. Lee’s TRHT resolution
and it has more than 150 co-sponsors in Congress. Dr. Christopher
victory says the TRHT framework is a comprehensive, national, and com-
munity-based process to bring transformational and sustainable
change, while addressing historic and contemporary effects of rac-
ism. TRHT’s five guiding pillars are: Narrative Change, Racial
over the Healing and Relationship Building, Separation, Law and the Econ-
omy. Dr. Christopher notes that the pillars are the foundation for
several initiatives, including Healing Through Policy, a partnership
vikings! between NCHE, the de Beaumont Foundation, and the American
Public Health Association. More information can be found at
https://www.nationalcollaborative.org/healing-through-policy/
Dr. Christopher says the National Day of Racial Healing ener-
gizes our commitment and engages millions of people. She asks
viewers to visit the Kellogg Foundation website to learn more about
the NDORH at https://healourcommunities.org/day-of-racial-heal-
ing/ and to download a toolkit at
https://healourcommunities.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/Indi-
viduals-Action-Kit_2022.pdf to learn what students, individuals,
organizations, companies and others can do to support it. “On 18th,
we encourage you to set aside some time and to orchestrate some
very specific relational work that allows you to become more
Photos by skilled and more capable of seeing yourself in the face of the per-
ceived other,” she tells viewers.
kim robinson As Dr. Christopher speaks to groups around the country, in person
and virtually, she encounters many people tired of the injustices and
the inequities. Frequently, they ask, “Dr. Christopher, what gives
you hope? What keeps you inspired?”
“And my response is that I've seen how much progress we have
made, and it is significant. And I know I've seen individuals over-
come the barriers,” she says. “I've seen communities come together
and create new ways forward. So, I believe in my heart that we, as
a democracy can overcome our legacy of division and racism. And
perhaps more importantly, that we must. I believe democracy is a
very good idea. And I know that it's under threat right now with all
the authoritarian momentum around the world and even in this
country. But I also know that if we are to actualize the promise of
democracy, we must overcome and eliminate racism.”
