This summer, after a string of shootings in the city, Sheray Wallace, founder of Meadowood Neighborhood Connectors, and local television show Club TNT organized a march on Madison’s west side as a demonstration of neighborhood unity.
The “Walk Against Violence, Save the Children March” started at Good Shepherd Lutheran Church on the corner of Raymond Road and Whitney Way and ended at Our Redeemer Lutheran Church on McKee Boulevard, just north of Raymond. Other area churches helped make the march possible, Wallace said.
“The congregations came out in numbers,” Wallace said. “And it was just a beautiful thing.”
