Detroit, Windsor, and the 1970s: Black Officers Changing the Game
This project explores into the experiences of black police officers in the 1970s, focusing on a man named Don Chase and how his time in the police force was a push for change, much like many others, and how dispite being put directly in the face of discrimination, he and many others managed to not only get by, but succeed and flourish in an inspirational way. The success that these police officers had when being placed directly in the midst of a prodominantly white career, used their unique advantages that their racial identity afforded them to create bridges and connections to marginalized neighborhoods.
