Moorish sovereign citizens, who consider Black people to constitute an elite class within American society,[3] are in a paradoxical situation of using an ideology originating in a White supremacist environment.[4]
In addition to the Moorish Science Temple doctrine that Black Americans are of Moorish descent, Moorish sovereign citizens claim legal immunity from U.S. federal, state, and local laws,[5] stemming from a mistaken belief that the Moroccan–American Treaty of Friendship (1786) grants them sovereignty.[2][6] In reality, the 1786 treaty was primarily a trade agreement.
