The collection is comprised of interviews Duganne completed with members of the Kamoinge Workshop. Members included in the interviews are Adger Cowans, Al Fennar, Ray Francis, Louis Draper, Herb Randall, Beuford Smith, and Shawn Walker, as well as New York school photographer Harold Feinstein. The majority of the interviews were recorded on microcassettes, and excerpts of some of the interviews were featured in the Spring 2011 edition of the magazine, "Exposure." Currently, transcriptions of the interviews are unavailable.
The collection is organized into two series, and items are generally arranged chronologically within each series. Items with no date are generally placed at the end of each series. Sub-series are arranged alphabetically by artists' surnames.
