Twin Forums Mission: To illuminate the dark past of mississippi history through open and honest repair-based discussions of mississippi’s confederate led past. The Twin Forums inspire (New) Afrikans in Jackson, mississippi and throughout the Afrikan Diaspora to:

work, in their own way, but without ambiguities, for environmental, judicial, economic and social justice for themselves and every other (New) Afrikans;

 

direct/manage that work so that the work will become the repair process of the damage that has been done to us (New Afrikans) psychologically, spiritually, emotionally, and economically as a result of our experiences through the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade and all its vestiges in america (commonly referred to as the Holocaust of African Enslavement or the MAAFA)
