N.A.P.O. (New Afrikan Prisoners Organization) was a revolutionary nationalist cadre organization. Its members were imprisoned nationals of the colonized nation- New Afrika.

…From the mid 1970s, The Statesville Prisoners Organization and New Afrikan Prisoners’ Organization attempted to unite prisoner groups at several Illinois facilities. NAPO was formed in 1977 as a way to sharpen collectivity among prisoners and between prisoners and the urban communities from which they came. Within the Illinois prison system, NAPO led study groups, wrote articles, tried to foster unity among disaffected Black prisoners and worked to maintain connections to Black organizing in Chicago and other big cities. Ultimately, NAPO ceased being a prisoner group and became the New Afrikan People’s Organization.
