A video by a leader of an African American Militia group caused quite the stir going viral on Twitter on the 4 of July with over 745 000 views.

Grand Master Jay who leads the group with the strange acronym NFAC, standing for the Not F*cking Around Coalition was asked in a clip what he sees as the solution after he describes his view of “a new black nation.”

He reckoned the solution was simple saying “We follow the declaration of liberation, declaring every African American descendant of slavery a political prisoner here in the United States.

After that the United States has a choice, either carve us a piece of land out here, we will take Texas, and let us do our own thing or don’t stop us when we exit this body here and go somewhere where they will give us our own land to build our own nation.”

He continues further; “we don’t want to talk no more, we don’t want to negotiate. We don’t want to sing songs; we don’t bring signs to a gunfight. We’re an eye for an eye organization.

So when they decide to act right, we’ll act right. And we do it all legally.”

Grand Master Jay describes group member as all ex-military, extremely disciplined & expert shooters.

Expressing his views on the group Black Lives Matter he said; I’m gonna say this one time and I mean it.

F*ck Black Lives Matter, we don’t f*ck with them. We don’t talk. We don’t sing. We ain’t trying to overcome.

We ain’t tryin’ to hold hand with you no more. We don’t give a f*ck about your rainbow.

This is for black people. We can’t never have nothing to our damned self. So we gonna have this to our damned self.

NFAC was previously seen during a George Floyd protest in Minneapolis where they were reportedly protecting Black-owned businesses amid the unrest in May.

The organization was also spotted in a Georgia neighborhood where Ahmaud Arbery, an unarmed Black man, was shot and killed by two White residents while he was out jogging.

A report by Newsweek said about 1,000 heavily armed militia, all of whom were Black, marched through Georgia’s Stone Mountain Park on Saturday, challenging white nationalist groups in the area to either come out and fight or join them in demonstrating against the government.

Stone Mountain State Park officials said the Black militia group was peaceful, orderly and escorted by police as they called for the removal of the country’s largest Confederate monument near Atlanta.

Grand Master Jay told Newsweek the sister of Rayshard Brooks, who was killed outside an Atlanta Wendy’s by police last month, requested the NFAC militia provide her with a security escort to a downtown rally that began at the site of her brother’s death.

Jay said there’s a second militia “show of force” on Saturday near Phoenix.
