The United Sons & Daughters of Freedmen (USADOF) unequivocally rejects all claims asserting that American Freedmen are Indigenous peoples or Native Americans in any legal, political, historical, or tribal sense.
USADOF recognizes and respects the distinct histories, identities, sovereignty, and legal status of federally and state-recognized Indigenous nations and Native American tribes. We do not seek to appropriate, redefine, or claim Indigenous identity as a basis for our advocacy, organizing, or policy objectives.
Our mission and advocacy are grounded exclusively in the unique historical and legal status of American Freedmen; the descendants of persons emancipated from chattel slavery in the United States. Our claims arise from the federal government's direct involvement in the institution of slavery, the promises made during Reconstruction, the subsequent dismantling of Reconstruction-era protections, and the continuing harms experienced by this specific population.
USADOF maintains that the case for American Freedmen reparative justice stands firmly on its own merits. It does not require, nor does it depend upon, assertions of Indigenous ancestry, Native American status, or tribal affiliation. We reject narratives that conflate these distinct historical experiences or undermine the sovereignty and identity of Native peoples.
Accordingly, USADOF affirms that:
๐ด We do not claim that American Freedmen are Indigenous or Native Americans as a people in any way.
โช๏ธ We do not base our advocacy on theories of Indigenous identity or Aboriginal status.
๐ต We recognize and respect the sovereign status of Native American tribes and nations.
We assert that American Freedmen possess a distinct historical and legal status rooted in the legacy of slavery, emancipation, Reconstruction, and the unfinished obligations owed by the United States government.
USADOF remains committed to pursuing justice through an evidence-based, historically accurate, and legally sound framework centered on the unique experiences and claims of the American Freedmen community.
Signed, United Sons & Daughters of Freedmen (USADOF)

She is 100% right! The Democrats don't GAF about us neither and voting for them is no different than voting for Republicans. These clowns can gaslight themselves but they can NEVER fool us
You can redraw districts, but you cannot erase the power of the people.
This week, I spoke with @Justinjpearson about our continued fight for voting rights โ even in the face of efforts to silence and divide us.
Eric Foner basically came to the same understanding that my team and I came to 3 years ago. He speaks to utilization of OUR #FREEDMEN Amendments of the political climate changes. We pushed the Back-South strategy for that. His take on our using the 13th Amendment for remedy...
What are American values?
From where do they derive?
Are they rooted in the Constitution or in culture?
In law or in religion?
In ideals or in power?
If we canโt answer that clearly, we canโt defend themโฆ or claim them.
๐คWe don't respond to mere words. We don't care if you get offended and get in your wittle feelings. Our WORKS speak for us! We are UNAPOLOGETIC!๐ค We will not slow down, we will STEP IT UP and STEP IN YO CHEST in the process!๐ค #USADOF#BTP๐ช๐ฟ
Admittedly, I used Claude to help refine my arguments in this debate. It is proof of HOW the right wing will argue against reparations. What this thread produced as a complete record:
1. Grok conceded originating state harm
2. Grok defined its own causation standard
3. I showed the government destroyed the evidence to meet it
4. Thomas confirmed the remedy framework
5. Rappaport (conservative originalist cited by Thomas) confirmed the race-neutral status-based classification
That is a five-point constitutional case built in real time on X. We will beat the machine, and the people making these arguments
Debating @grok on reparations:
Given the consistent economic projections showing that American Freedmen e.g., descendants of persons emancipated, are on track to have even less relative wealth over the next 30 years, despite formally equal civil rights, do you acknowledge that this represents a continuing economic injury traceable to historic state action? And if so, on what principled basis would you deny a targeted remedy such as reparations without contradicting the very legal and economic frameworks used to justify restitution in every other context?โ
Today's Black American (Freedmen) inventor is Charles B. Brooks. In 1896, Brooks patented the first self-propelled street sweeper truck.
โUnlike earlier mechanical sweepers that relied on horse-drawn power, his version integrated the sweeping apparatus onto a motorized chassis, eliminating the need for animal or manual labor. His design introduced groundbreaking features such as synchronized rotating brushes, a conveyor-driven collection system for storing debris, and interchangeable scrapers that served as an early snowplow attachment. The fundamental architecture of modern street sweepers is based on his 1896 innovation. #BlackHistoryMonth
Love this video. The wights hate for Islam among our people in America was due to the fact that it created the militant sentiment that this young brother had in opposition to docile turn the other cheek sentiment of this Christian black man. We see the same thing happening today in the reparations movement, weak minded Black Christians are in alignment with the other party that has been destroying us in this country. BTP/USADOF is on that Malcolm (Islam) energy
