Aisha Fields 
Dr.
Aisha Fields is a physicist coordinating the
All African People’s Development and Empowerment Projects,
programs of the African People’s Socialist Party involving
African working communities on the Continent of Africa
and around the world.
The
development and empowerment projects will put community-implemented
and controlled power and water purification infrastructure
on the ground in Africa and other places throughout the
world that African people are located.
With
her physics background, Dr. Fields is laying down plans
for simple sustainable programs using solar energy, micro-hydro
power and wind harnessing that will create electricity
as a renewable resource on the African continent that
has been devastated by plunder for 500 years.
Dr.
Fields is also designing easy-to-implement community programs
for rainwater harvesting and purification that can bring
accessible water, hygiene and sanitation to parts of the
African world with no access to clean water.
As
a member of the African People’s Socialist Party, Dr.
Fields explains that, “The underlying cause for the water
crisis in Africa is the exploitation and purposeful underdevelopment
by the U.S. and Europe which control the post colonial
states of Africa.” The development and empowerment programs
involve African people from the U.S., Europe, the Caribbean
and the Continent of Africa as part of the struggle for
one united Africa as the birthright of African people
everywhere.
Dr.
Fields holds a Ph.D. in Applied Optical Physics from Alabama
Agricultural and Mechanical University.
