NAOACS

National Assembly of American Chattel Slavery is a national catalog of the publicly declared descendants of American chattel slavery peoples whose origin begins in the United States of America. Currently, there are four self-identified designations; each hold contrasting principles. NAOACS public platform educates those interested in learning about the distinct differences between the classifications and also serves to inform the general public about reparations specifically owed to our lineage from the United States government.

The importance of tribal distinction is that it provides clarity, structure and specificity into how we self-identify who we are, what we stand for and what we believe. As U.S. descendants of American chattel slavery, we all share the same American lineage however, we are four separate tribes rooted in different doctrines. Our four tribes are: American African (Descendants of Slaves), American Descendants of Slavery (ADOS), Descendants of American Slaves (DAS), and Foundational Black Americans (FBA). Each tribe follows their own ideologies and represents American lineage in their own way. While we share a common goal of USA Reparations specifically for our people, we have vastly different views on how to get there.

While existing in an unjust, unfair, and unequal American society, the worst way to demolish the system of white supremacy is to treat all victims equally.

American Africans and African Americans are two completely different groups of people.

American African (Descendants of Slaves) is an ethnic designation for black Americans who are mostly (60%+) West African DNA and have a direct link to at least one U.S. enslaved black ancestor. They fully acknowledge and proclaim their original race to be Sub-Saharan (West) African and believe their generational persecution is linked to their physical appearance as well as their ancestor’s contribution to building the wealthiest country on earth. They believe their people's history begins in West Africa before their enslaved ancestors were brutally kidnapped and taken to the new world.

American African (DOS) feel the only way to destroy the system of white dominance, white supremacy and racial hierarchy is to demolish it layer by layer. They feel the root of systemic racism is first based on physical appearance (phenotype) and as such, reparations should be equitable based on U.S. societal treatment over the past 400 years. Which means, the higher your West African DNA, the higher your reparations compensation; which is the reverse of how U.S. society treats them.

In other words, they believe physical appearance is one of two main reasons they’ve experienced generational persecution in the USA therefore, reparations compensation should be equitable not equal. They have their own separate reparations plan specifically for their tribe only. To prevent mass fraud, they’ve set strict guidelines on exactly who qualifies for reparations from the U.S. government.

American Africans demand sovereignty on their own land, which means that along with a hefty financial payout, they insist on land redistribution as part of their reparations deal. They also plan to use their new resources to build their own U.S. industries stolen by European colonizers. Their goal is to separate out of the system of white domination. They follow the teachings of Dr. Frances Cress Welsing and Malcolm X and feel integration did not work for their people. Their motto is, “Compensate then separate!” They feel separation is the only way to heal from the inflicted generational trauma they’ve endured over hundreds of years; this along with a strong economic and fair judicial system set in place to fully protect them and their assets is paramount to their survival.

American African (DOS) is not an organization. They are a tribe which means they are nonpartisan however, they feel a successful protest vote against the Democratic Party will cause a mass awakening of their people in the year 2020, for which they describe as the ‘vote of the century’.

They believe it's important to be astute in all areas of society but especially in U.S. politics however, other subjects like science, biology, history, technology, psychology, economics, finance, etc. are equally important. They believe well-rounded knowledge backed by a thorough U.S. political education is the key to securing reparations for their people.

American Africans elect nine member-leaders every few years; they celebrate Juneteenth Emancipation Day and follow their own black agenda as outlined on their website.

American Descendants of Slavery (ADOS)

This is not Crayola. It's not about melanin, your skin color doesn’t matter; your hair, eyes, physical features, none of it matters. This is about lineage only; American lineage and our government owes us.

Founded by political commentator Yvette Carnell and attorney Antonio Moore, American Descendants of Slavery (#ADOS) is a political action movement, a political organization and ethnic designation based on American lineage. ADOS is not grounded in genetic identity, they’re rooted in American lineage. They’re anchored in data-based U.S. politics; their key focus is to acquire a thorough U.S. political education in order to get reparations for ADOS.

In short, #ADOS is a linage-based movement seeking a specific justice claim of reparations owed by the U.S. government; they believe their people's history begins in U.S. chattel slavery.

As the founders, both Yvette and Antonio set the tone, guidelines, and best practices for how ADOS operates. Which means if a major call-to-action does not originate from either one of them, it needs their approval before it’s disseminated amongst the group.

#ADOS conducts boots-to-ground organization and mobilization on behalf of their group's interests which means public interactions, chapters, branches, meetups, etc.

ADOS celebrate both Juneteenth Emancipation Day and also July Fourth Independence Day. They follow their own black agenda as outlined on their website, most of what you need to know about them can be found there.

They follow the teachings of Martin Luther King Jr. and believe total integration is their best option. In fact, the reason they feel they’ve never been treated as full U.S. citizens, instead they’ve been treated as 3rd class citizens, is because they were never fully integrated into the American system. They demand full integration into “Americanness” and to them “American” means “white” thus they feel “whiteness” should not exist, that “whiteness” prevents them from full integration into American society and that “whiteness” is what prevents them from becoming full U.S. citizens. They demand to be treated as full U.S. citizens, deserving of all the rights and privileges that come along with U.S. citizenship, “equal to white people”.

#ADOS claim they are not African, that the continent of Africa is only a location, therefore they have no solidarity in melanin, skin color, genetics, physical traits, features or characteristics. They are American Descendants of Slavery with no relation to Africa.

“This is not about Crayola; this is about American lineage.” - Yvette Carnell

In other words, they believe their physical appearance alone does not correlate to racial discrimination or generational impoverishment; that only ADOS linage matters.

Since they do not identify by Sub-Saharan African genetics, as long as you have at least one enslaved black ancestor linked to American chattel slavery and have claimed to be black for at least ten years prior to reparations enactment, you qualify for reparations under their plan which is written by Dr. William (Sandy) Darity, an economist at Duke University.

If no 2020 presidential candidate offers them reparations, they advocate their group vote Democrat down ballot; they feel the Republican Party does not have their groups collective best interest in mind.

Slavery is the foundation of America and the economic cornerstone to the American economy. Slavery was a business and it will take a business to secure reparations.

Founded by author and entrepreneur Mr. Norris Shelton, Descendants of American Slaves (DAS) is the name for the people who call themselves “American Slaves”.

As described in Section 4 of the 14th amendment of the U.S. constitution, DAS believe the term “Slave” is the official legal way to describe their race and ethnicity. They do not identify with Sub-Saharan African genetics, instead they proclaim their original race to be “Slave”. This means any person of any genetic race qualifies under their reparations plan if they can trace their American chattel slavery lineage back to at least one enslaved black ancestor.

For the 2020 U.S. census, DAS advise their people to identify as and write-in the term “American Slave” in the ‘Some other race’ category so they can be properly categorized as an official race.

American Slaves have their own “American Slave Culture” which exemplifies their entire identity. They are not African Americans, they are not Black Americans, they are American Slaves and they believe their history begins in U.S. chattel slavery.

American Slave Nation is their sovereignty as a people; they’re essentially a nation within a nation, a nation-state, destined to enact their own laws, rules and regulations which will enable them to legally conduct business with other nations all around the world as their own independent dominion.

The Prime Minister of the American Slave Nation is Dr. Gerald Higginbotham who was appointed by Mr. Shelton. Minister Higginbotham is determined to lead DAS to awakening into who they really are...American Slaves.

Descendants of American Slaves follow the tenets outlined in the book written by Mr. Shelton titled “America's Little Black Book: The Birth and Birthright of America's Offspring”; this serves as a thorough explanation of the past, present and overall origin history of their people.

Mr. Shelton’s other book “American Slaves Inc. Renaissance Plan: The Next Step Forward - Building the Links to True Emancipation” was written to not only help their people heal from the generational trauma inflicted upon them by the hands of European colonizers but also outlines the pathway to future prosperity for the DAS people.

DAS declare they are no longer African; they were born and breed out of American chattel slavery, birthed into a new race based on European colonization, business enterprise and the intermix with the original enslaved West Africans.

Since the U.S. bred their people into existence and American chattel slavery was a business, they demand the legal business contract for U.S. Reparations be honored; they’re ready and prepared to take their case through the U.S. legal system even up to the U.S. Supreme Court and beyond if necessary.

DAS celebrate both Juneteenth Emancipation Day and also July Fourth Independence Day.

American Slave, Inc. (ASI) is the official non-profit organization for the American Slaves people. ASI administers educational material to empower and enlighten DAS; ultimately their goal is for true emancipation from U.S. government dependency.

Foundational Black Americans is about culture only. We’re not a political organization, we’re not a business; FBA is our lineage. We built this country; now cut the check!

Foundational Black Americans (FBA) is the term coined by author, singer and film producer Tariq Nasheed to describe the name for black Americans who descend out of American chattel slavery.

Tariq claims “Foundational Black Americans” is simply the name that describes American lineage; he states they are not an organization, movement, political action group or business.

All information about Foundational Black Americans is to be understood on an individual level. In other words, FBA does not have collective agency as a “tribe” per se, rather they are untethered to a particular group doctrine or unified ideology.

“You are who you are” is the consensus.

FBA has no leadership structure; they’re not led by anyone which means Foundational Black Americans speak individually on behalf of themselves. Put another way, they’re all individuals who contribute to their group’s collective interest which is reparations for their people but there is no structure because the name FBA simply describes their collective lineage.

Since FBA do not identify by Sub-Saharan African genetics and have no official requirements to receive reparations; it’s understood recipients need to be black and also descend from American chattel slavery. There are no legal routes publicly outlined on how to obtain reparations except on an individual level. Simply put, FBA do not have public documentation or a direct pathway in which they plan to receive reparations. There are no public guidelines, written demands, specific asks, official documents, or legal protocol to widely view their official stance as a group; which is to say, it’s understood once U.S. reparations passes into law through U.S. legislation, that’s when FBA will receive reparations compensation.

Foundational Black Americans are encouraged to learn about black history, black culture, business, finance, and economics; they feel these subjects best prepare them to receive reparations from the U.S. government. Mr. Neely Fuller, Dr. Frances Cress Welsing, Dr. Claud Anderson, and other black scholars are considered pioneers who’ve paved the way for them to grow and evolve beyond victims of white supremacy. FBA seek to replace the system of white supremacy with the system of justice and this begins with the U.S. government paying reparations which is a debt owed to them.

Most FBA collective interaction remains online through social media activism however, Tariq holds an annual FBA conference in which everyone comes together once a year to learn about various topics relevant to black American culture, American lineage and the ability to thrive and survive within the United States of America.

Foundational Black Americans are encouraged to not participate in the U.S. voting process. As such, if no 2020 presidential candidate offers reparations, the consensus is to stay at home on election day; do not vote at all. They feel no amount of voting has helped them in the past and it will not help them in the future unless reparations is on the ballot.

The National Assembly of American Chattel Slavery was founded in August 2020. We maintain the importance of knowing who you are, what you stand for and what you believe. Our people descend from the enslaved black ancestors who built the United States of America from the ground up. Together, we declare and establish ourselves as a separate group and identity from all other American citizens. Categorization is as follows: American African, American Descendant of Slavery, Foundational Black American and Descendant of American Slaves. As a non-profit organization established for our common purpose, NAOACS acknowledges and respects each identity and welcome group participation in shared projects to advance our collective cause for the betterment of our people. United we stand, divided we fall.
