media release: The Human Show ep. 25: Pretty Things
Each fourth Saturday at 3 PM, Stephanie Rearick conducts interviews with esteemed guests who hail from our community or beyond. These discussions cover critical topics and are complemented by piano recitals, live music, and engaging conversations.
Feb. 24 features music and interview guest Skye Gia Garcia, and interview guests Sharon Irwin and Kristin Mathews.
Skye Gia Garcia is an Afro-LatinX vocalist, songwriter, and civil rights activist. Skye's amazing vocals evoke Billie Holliday, and we're excited to hear what she offers us here, and to learn more about her life.
Among other things, Sharon Irwin is the grandmother of Tony Terrell Robinson who was slain by Madison Police in 2015. Sharon and Kristin will share about their journey toward bringing a permanent memorial mural to the neighborhood, and what comes next.
Kristin worked for the city of Madison for many years as east parks supervisor. Since retiring in 2020, she has been involved with Occupy Madison, a lead volunteer coordinator with the Willy Street pantry, and helped launch the “In Pursuit of Justice” campaign to hold Matt Kenny accountable for his role in Tony Robinson’s death.
FREE event! Donations are welcomed.
