Join community, civic and business leaders who are passionate about bringing diverse people together to discuss issues of vital importance at the second annual Frank P.

Reggie Jackson, a Milwaukee native and nationally recognized, award-winning author, journalist, speaker and educator, has been named the 2019 Frank P.

The 2019 Frank P.
