Lead Poisoning, Segregation and Slavery: An Important Historical Analysis
By Robert Penner, Contributing Columnist to KINGFISHmke
June 13, 2020

Picture
​I want to begin this article by recounting an exchange I had with Superintendent Karen Dettmer of the Milwaukee Water Works at the November 18th, 2019 On Public Health - Lead in Milwaukee: A Community-Wide Response event. During the question and answer portion of the event, I posed to the panel of experts, which included both local 
and national experts on lead poisoning, whether they thought it was the City of Milwaukee's responsibility to remove all 75,000 lead laterals with no cost to the homeowners, based on the 1872 mandate that required lead laterals to be used until 1950.

"On Thursday (July 2), the social justice sector of the mogul's Roc Nation company wrote an open letter to Milwaukee County District Attorney John Chisholm in the XXL Magazine and Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. The letter calls for the firing and prosecution of officer Joseph Mensah from the Wauwatosa Police Department. Since joining the force five years ago, Mensah has shot and killed Alvin Cole, Antonio Gonzales and Jay Anderson during traffic stops over the course of 
five years, using 19 bullets in total, Team Roc said in a statement."

OPEN LETTER TO THE MILWAUKEE COMMON COUNCIL - Get The Lead Out Coalition (GTLO)

OPEN LETTER TO THE MILWAUKEE COMMON COUNCIL
By Get The Lead Out Coalition (GTLO)
July 7, 2020


The Get The Lead Out Coalition (GTLO) of Milwaukee supports racial and environmental justice. In that vein, we demand that Milwaukee leaders, heads of departments, the Mayor and Common Council commit to community-led efforts to create a just and equitable society that is free from racism and environmental toxins, specifically toxic lead. A City with over 77,000 lead laterals, failing lead paint, and lead in soil is unacceptable. There is no safe level of lead! Democratically drafting a comprehensive plan to remove lead infrastructure throughout the City, and investing heavily in its implementation, would be significant in fighting the double-headed dragon of pollution and racism. The City must commit to a future in which resources are spent removing the toxic legacy of lead, with funding divested from class and race based policing practices.
