The project's list of oral history interviews, grouped by year. Four were recorded in 2007 and ten entries date from 2006, the earliest on April 24, 2006 and the latest on April 9, 2007.

Marion Bascom, Rev. Douglas Sands, Walter Sondheim, Jr., and four Morgan State University alumni. Each entry names the students who conducted the interview and the date. The audio recordings were not preserved in the captures, so only the list survives.
The students recorded these conversations in 2006 and 2007. The audio files were not kept in the web archive, so the list below records who was interviewed, by whom and when.
