Appointed the first black mayor of a major metropolitan city in the United States, Floyd J. McCree was sworn into office as Mayor of the City of Flint in 1966. Historic for its time, Mayor McCree was also the first black mayor in Michigan. He was well-known for his leadership among United Auto Workers union membership at the Buick foundry. McCree was elected to the Flint City Commission who later appointed him as mayor. He served in that capacity from 1966-1968.
