The Tory Lowe Show: Surveillance, Gun Violence & Who’s Really in the Room (Hour 2)

Tory Lowe opens Hour 2 discussing the possibility of facial recognition software being brought to the Milwaukee Police Department. Tory points out that the meeting debating the technology was attended mostly by white residents, raising questions about representation, trust, and who gets to shape decisions that heavily impact Black communities. The conversation then shifts to a new gun violence prevention initiative. Tory breaks down why many people underestimate the long-term damage gun violence causes—not just physically, but emotionally and economically across entire communities. Callers join the show to weigh in on the question of the day, adding lived experience and perspective to the discussion. The hour closes with Montey from the gun violence prevention initiative joining the show to explain how the program actually works, how it’s helping people, and how it continues to grow following earlier coverage in the show.
