80 Acres: A Living Experiment in Black Liberation
The Decarcerate Western Mass Bailout Project is excited to be partnering with 80 Acres. Learn more about their work here and on their website.
WHO ARE ARE:
80 Acres is a non-profit organization that operates both a school and a law firm committed to Black Liberation and Climate Justice.
Created in response to the pervasive inequities Black people in America experience, 80 Acres operates a law office, a mutual aid center, and a school located in Western Massachusetts. 80 Acres is a living experiment in Black liberation. We’re planning for a Black future by preparing the children, and leveraging the law to protect the people, the land, and the climate.
