DESCRIPTION:Join us to kick off <a href="https://wisconsinbikefed.org/wisconsin-bike-week/">Wisconsin Bike Week</a> with the free screening of Changing Lanes, a documentary by Ben Wolf. After the film, stick around for a panel featuring the director, local transportation officials, and advocates to inspire action. The 2021 hit-and-run death of Brooklyn schoolteacher Matthew Jensen on the dangerously designed McGuinness Boulevard sparked a grassroots movement for safer streets. Local activists Bronwyn Breitner and Kevin LaCherra launched Make McGuinness Safe, pushing the city to redesign the street with protected bike lanes, wider medians, and fewer car lanes. The plan faces fierce opposition from business interests, igniting a community battle that exposes deep political and cultural divides around urban transportation. Featuring former NYC Transportation Commissioner Janette Sadik-Khan, policy directorJon Orcutt, musician and cyclist David Byrne, bike parking innovator Shabazz Stuart, and Brooklyn Borough President Antonio Reynoso, the film reveals the power of grassroots activism and visionary leadership in the fight for safer, more livable streets. <iframe title="YouTube video player" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/0qR7DaPN-0Q?si=VOSrjYIlYrweeniw" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>
