Wisconsinites — from activists to professional basketball players to politicians to concerned citizens — took to the streets once more on June 7 to take part in ongoing protests that spread nationwide after George Floyd was killed in the custody of Minneapolis police officers.

June 6 marks the ninth day in Wisconsin in which demonstrations have filled city streets and public spaces as organizers have sought to raise awareness about a range of social justice issues, including institutional racism, police brutality and the flaws of the criminal justice system.

As the ongoing pandemic shutters businesses and puts people out of work, garage sale and flea market organizers are trying to avoid becoming the latest victim of COVID-19 cancellations, delaying open dates and taking precautions to make their events safer.

What is the situation on the ground with practicing cops, those still responding and engaging and making decisions? Green Bay Police Chief Andrew Smith discusses training, police accountability, marching with protesters, and criticism the department is facing over its use of force.
