@cspanofficial: C-SPAN spoke with Ben Barbera, the executive director of the Milwaukee County Historical Society, to learn more about the city that’s playing host to the 2024 Republican National Convention. Mr. Barbera take us through the founding of the city, how it’s been shaped by immigration and why it’s world famous for its breweries. He also talks about the assassination attempt against President Theodore Roosevelt that took place in Milwaukee in 1912, and how his organization is documenting current events like the RNC. #milwaukee #history #rnc #rnc2024 #cspan
