African Independence Workforce Program (AIWP)
The need to build the African Independence Workforce Program (AIWP) is not an abstract need. It is real, based on the impact of the past 40 years of mass incarceration that has torn apart families; interrupted the ability to produce and reproduce life; left our communities impoverished; left families without fathers, sons, uncles and mothers, daughters and sisters.
AIWP is part of a process of the black community receiving our brothers and sisters back into the community to reverse the damage done by the prison system that has always been used as a colonial tool against the African community.
