BROOKFIELD, WI The Brookfield East High School and Brookfield Central Black Student Union on Monday condemned the Common Council s action on February s Black History Month resolution. While we re happy to see the city of Brookfield begin to discuss some issues Black Americans face in the area, we are disappointed that the specific issue of racism and inequality were overlooked in the proclamation, the union said in a statement Monday.
The Common Council voted 12-2 Feb. 16 to approve a Black History Month resolution that had been revised by Mayor Steve Ponto. The mayor said the original version was negative in tone.

Canberra will double the fleet of Boeing Airpower Teaming System (ATS) ‘loyal wingman’ aircraft to six, as the company confirms that ATS will form the basis of its effort under the US Air Force’s (USAF’s) Skyborg initiative.
Following the first flight of the ATS on 27 February, Australia’s minister of defence industry Melissa Price says that Canberra will invest a further A$115 million ($89 million) to obtain three additional ATS aircraft, bringing the entire test fleet to six examples. The original programme, announced in 2019, called for three prototypes to be built in Australia.
