On May 12, 2025, the Freedmen Reparations Fund Trust officially issued its Declaration of Internal Judiciary & Conflict Resolution Authority, marking a historic milestone in sovereign self-governance for Verified Freedmen.

The new declaration creates a permanent judicial body within the Trust—known as the Resolution & Ethical Review Board—to investigate disputes, enforce ethics, and resolve internal Freedmen matters without relying on external courts or state intervention.

Why This Declaration Is Critical:

For generations, Freedmen have been subject to outside courts that neither understood our history nor protected our identity. That ends here.

This declaration ensures that:

Freedmen-to-Freedmen disputes (land, contracts, fraud, identity misuse) will be handled internally.
Trust ethics violations or administrative abuse will be investigated by a neutral board.
Verified Freedmen can file complaints and get rulings through a clear and lawful process.
All decisions are enforceable within the Trust’s system of governance.

What the Declaration Does:

Establishes a Resolution & Ethical Review Board of Verified Freedmen.
Gives the Board authority to:
- Rule on identity fraud, land misuse, or Freedmen business conflicts.
- Recommend suspension, license termination, or administrative removal.
- Issue rulings within 60 days of complaint submission.
Empowers the Primary Trustee with final oversight to protect Trust integrity.
Prevents outside interference while respecting internal due process.
