Fuel Milwaukee, Social X reversing professional BIPOC 'brain drain'

In a follow-up to episode one, we look at "brain drain" through the professional and economic lens, asking the question: How is Milwaukee doing at retaining its Black and Brown talent?

Reggie and Tarik discuss how Atlanta has built its diverse professional community, then Kim goes deep with two local leaders working to scale that success to Milwaukee. Corry Joe Biddle, executive director of Fuel Milwaukee, and Ranell Washington, vice president at Social X, share their collaborative wins and outlooks for the city's future.
