So what is an AfriClass?
Simply put…
An Africlass = AfricanCentered + Hands On + Holistic + Exploratory + Adventurous + Experiential + Educational + Fun
At MLL, we believe in exploration and creativity. We believe in learning about the Origin of things. We go beyond the what, where and when – and love to answer the question WHY. Learning about rivers? Go out and experience one! Want to learn about history? Look for it, it is all around us! Even better – make history – because every moment holds the seeds of greatness! Our forebears left their traces everywhere – we look for it, dig for it, research it and find it – .

Creating The Blueprint For The Future We Want
Fridays 11:30am EST – Jan 15-March 25 – (10 weeks) Already in Session!
What does freedom mean to you? What is freedom? Is freedom personal or collective? Can it be both? As people of color we have been involved in a long process of freeing ourselves from systemic oppression, but how often do we stop to fully think about what we would create as an alternative? What would be our ideals and goals? Does democracy work? What kinds of economic organization would be ideal? This class aims to provide our youth with the opportunity to think critically through these ideas. We will analyze ancient African civilizations and read from the book “Pedagogy of the Oppressed.” Through reading, writing, discussing and analyzing the students will begin to create the blueprint for the future they want. Materials: Book “Pedagogy of the Oppressed”. This is a live in person class that consists of 10 weekly 1.5 hour sessions. Best for Ages 14 to 19.
