The topic I have chosen to explore for my final project will examine Milwaukee's South Side. The main points that I will focus on include the original Polish roots of the area, and the Hispanic infiltration that has more recently occurred. I will accomplish this task by researching the history of the area to gain a thorough understanding of how and why the demographics might have changed. The following are resources that I have begun to examine. I will also be using the library archives at UWM to gain more relevant information.
