The ProQuest PodQuast

A new collaboration between ProQuest and the Chicago History Museum has digitized a wealth of valuable records from the African American Police League (AAPL), an organization founded in the 1960s to fight racial discrimination and police brutality and to improve relations between African Americans and law enforcement.

We spoke to the Chicago History Museum's Julie Wroblewski about the League, the collection and a typical week in the life of an archivist.
