The Destruction of Black Milwaukee (1950-2022): A History of Racial Inequality and Injustice provides the most comprehensive study of Black Milwaukee since Joe Trotter's 1985 Black Milwaukee: The Making of an Industrial Proletariat 1915-45. In The Destruction of Black Milwaukee, the reader will learn how institutional racism, public policies, and individual racism contributed to racial inequality and injustices in the city of Milwaukee to the point where Milwaukee is considered the worst city for African Americans to live in the United States. The readers will learn how institutional racism, public policies, and individual racism perpetuated these practices over decades. As outlined in chapter 2 of The Destruction of Black Milwaukee, it shows that based on almost every major socioeconomic indicator (unemployment, poverty, income, welfare reform, and more), Blacks in Milwaukee rank at or near the bottom nationally. The Destruction of Black Milwaukee explores racial inequality in the areas of housing (redlining, racial covenants, home loan denial, refinance denials, gentrification, evictions, etc.), business (business loans denials, racist policies, lack of enforcement of policies, etc.), education (graduation rates, test scores, suspensions, etc.), limits of electoral politics, health disparities (infant mortalities, teen pregnancies, suicides, homicides, etc.) and hospital closings, and the criminal justice system (police killings of African Americans, rape, illegal frisks, brutality, etc.). The Destruction of Black Milwaukee also discusses the role that Black gangs, African American drug dealers, and Black-on-Black homicides contributed to the destruction of Milwaukee's Black community. Moreover, The Destruction of Black Milwaukee discusses the role of Black serial killers and White serial killers in causing deaths and chaos in Milwaukee's Black community during this period. The Destruction of Black Milwaukee concludes with a discussion on the outlook for African Americans in Milwaukee.
