This is not personal. It is jurisdictional.
Freedmen Nation, governed by the Freedmen Reparations Fund Trust, has officially launched a national boycott of African-identified businesses operating within the United States, as well as a public disassociation from the African Union and all of its affiliated initiatives.
This declaration marks a critical inflection point in our enforcement of cultural governance, symbolic jurisdiction, and economic alignment.
Why This Boycott Is Necessary
For far too long, external institutions—particularly those aligned with African-based governments and commercial entities—have sought to insert themselves into reparative and identity-based frameworks that belong exclusively to the Freedmen class. These unauthorized intrusions include:
False claims of representational authority in U.S.-based reparations forums;
Unlawful blending of distinct classes for symbolic and financial benefit;
Misappropriation of Freedmen-specific naming systems, history, and legal standing.
Freedmen Nation does not operate under symbolic unity or shared ancestral generalizations. We are not a global or transnational identity. We are a legally defined status class, comprised of those emancipated from U.S. chattel slavery and governed by federal obligations including Freedmen treaties, domestic trust claims, and verified harms.
This boycott is not about heritage. It is about standing. It is about law. It is about enforcement.
Violations by the African Union
The African Union has repeatedly positioned itself as a representative voice for Freedmen in global reparations discourse—without verification, consent, or lawful jurisdiction. These misrepresentations amount to:
Unauthorized cultural governance claims;
Diplomatic overreach in matters of domestic U.S. legal classifications;
Exploitation of the Freedmen name and protected identity frameworks.
These actions are in direct violation of declarations issued by the Freedmen Reparations Fund Trust, which formally protects the Freedmen class and prohibits the blending of distinct legal statuses under unauthorized banners.
Effective Immediately: Boycott Terms
Freedmen Nation is taking the following actions:
Severing all commercial ties with African-identified businesses operating in the U.S. that misclassify or exploit the Freedmen status;
Rejecting all representational claims made by the African Union regarding reparations, cultural governance, or jurisdiction over the Freedmen class;
Issuing enforcement notices and documentation to any institution or actor infringing on the Trust’s protected governance frameworks.
What This Means for Our Community
Economic Disengagement:
Verified Freedmen, donors, and aligned institutions will no longer patronize or financially support businesses that erase, dilute, or misclassify our status.
Redirected Capital Flow:
The Trust will shift its donor and development pipelines to Verified Freedmen-owned businesses and legally authorized institutions operating within our compliance frameworks.
Public Enforcement Trail:
Each boycott action and enforcement step will be logged in public records, ensuring transparency and accountability as we secure our jurisdictional and economic boundaries.
Moving Forward
This is not a symbolic action. It is a jurisdictional boundary backed by declarations, governance authority, and fiduciary enforcement.
Partnership and collaboration are still possible—but only through lawful recognition of the Freedmen status and governance. This includes:
Executed Trust Acknowledgment Agreements;
Licensing under Declaration-based frameworks;
Verified compliance with our cultural, financial, and symbolic protocols.
Freedmen are not a generic category.
We are not an open-source identity.
We are a defined legal class.
That class is no longer available for misrepresentation, dilution, or unauthorized affiliation.
The boycott is active. The enforcement is ongoing. The boundary is enforced.
