A review of a Black organization, AYCO, created with the expressed purpose to settle the past, engage the present and hope for the future.

Join hosts Dr. Audrey Terrell, Deborah Hall, and Tina Turner-Morfitt of the Oregon Coalition of Black Trade Unionists in our monthly Labor Radio segment. Tonight’s segment spotlights the value of Black workers, Black volunteers and Black organizations servicing the Black community. We interview the CEO and founder of the African Youth & Community Organization and the Operations and Program Director. Our guests, Brother Jamal Dar and Brother Askina Sarif outline the need for their 15-year-old organization and the multiple offshoot programs created with the expressed intent to address complex challenges African families undergo here in Oregon. AYCO has a specific distinction of utilizing graduates from their programs to interact with new participants facilitating an atmosphere of familiarity to maximize on their mission to ‘settle the past, engage the present and hope for the future.
