The African Americans in the Milwaukee Police Department Oral History Project includes twelve audio interviews with retired and current Milwaukee Police Department officers of African descent, as well as two current African American University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee (UWM) Police Department officers. Will Tchakirides conducted the interviews between 2016 and 2017 at officers’ homes, the UWM Cultures and Communities Program office, Wisconsin Black Historical Society and Museum (WBHSM), and the University of Memphis. WBHSM Director Clayborn Benson provided select assistance with interview recruitment and the coordination process.
