A Midwest health reporter updates us on what other states around Wisconsin are facing currently with the coronavirus pandemic — and how they, and we in Wisconsin, could potentially learn from one another. Then we talk with a Madison-based activist promoting Black girls’ development. And creators of a pen pals project for quarantine tell us about their goals and how people can get involved.
