LIFE AFTER PRISON: MINISTER CALIPH MUAB-EL
Minister Caliph Muab-El was sent to a prison for adults
at age 15. At the age of 19, he spent 10 out of 15 years in solitary
confinement at a super-maximum facility. While incarcerated, he turned
his cell into a classroom to expand his education.
At one point, he was precluded from getting his degree as a result of the Department of Correction’s policy of not allowing inmates to go to college. However, he remained determined in his effort and went on to receive a paralegal license from Blackstone College after being released. He also studied business administration and law at Murray State University through correspondence courses.
He was ordained through the Universal Church of Christ and Now Faith International and has been the subject of numerous news profiles in the state of Wisconsin and other sections of the country.
As a motivational speaker, he frequently travels the U.S. to give lectures on mass incarceration, racial injustice, police brutality and inequality.
