 However, in order to respect the sovereignty of U.S. blacks as a people and their autonomy as individuals, no presumption should be made that would make the provision of reparations to them dependent on the reconciliation between said blacks and the U.S.. In order to effect this, a Committee on Black Reparations might be established only by vote of U.S. blacks, having a 3–4 year service for each member. There would be no shortage of highly qualified U.S. blacks to serve excellently on said committee: from educators, business persons, attorneys, medical experts, etc.. Said committee would alone decide what to do with the monetary reparations paid by the U.S. Treasury. An annual audit of the transactions between the two parties could be conducted by a party of the committee’s choice.
