What is DAAHP?

Wayne State University's Education Technolgy Services/Computing and Information Services and the Walter P. Reuther Library/College of Urban, Labor and Metropolitan Affairs have collaborated on this Web site which is designed to provide high school and college students, as well as the general public with insights and facts regarding the rich history of African Americans in Detroit. More information on the Reuther Library can be found at: http://www.reuther.wayne.edu.

Co-directors, archivist Louis Jones of the Walter P. Reuther Library and Producer/Director Darryl G. Shreve of University Television, have assembled a solid team of archivists, researchers and professionals trained in history and state of the art multimedia technologies.

Our list of content advisors includes the scholars Dr. Norman McRae, Dr. Todd Duncan, De Witt Dykes and Mike Smith. We have also formed partnerships with the Detroit Public Library, and the Detroit WestSiders.
