KAUKAUNA, Wis. — A new documentary film featuring local history is coming to the Fox Valley this week. “The Exchange in White America: Kaukauna & King 50 Years later,” tells the story of a student exchange program between Black and White high schoolers from Rufus King High School in Milwaukee and Kaukauna High School in 1966.
We were honored to have producer, writer and director of the film, Joanne Williams stop by Focus Fox Valley to talk about this story and opportunity for the Fox Valley community.
