The "My Rights Matter" movement is about our rights to which the laws of nature and nature's God entitles us too.
Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves, for the rights of all who are destitute. Speak up and judge fairly; defend the rights of the poor and needy. Proverbs 31:8-9
The Story
A deeply personal and profound experience sparked this movement. What began with a unlawful traffic stop on August 27, 2019, has led Andy to uncover the historical roots of policing and the urgent need for a new path forward. A one-hour-long traffic stop would stretch across four years. Initially alleged to be a failure to use a turn signal and come to a complete stop, it soon became apparent that the stop was a pretextual one, designed to seek out guns and drugs.
The history of American roads and highways being patrolled or policed has roots that trace back to slave patrols and slave catchers. It's a history often overlooked or downplayed, yet it plays a crucial role in understanding the present and shaping a more just future.
The courtroom agents, including administrative judges and prosecutors, seemingly ignored the evidence of a racially motivated stop, deepening the divide between law enforcement and the communities they supposed to serve and protect.
In Aurora, which is Williams’s hometown and where the traffic stop occurred, police reported that they were 6.2 times more likely to pull over Black drivers than white
drivers, and 3.8 times more likely to stop Latino drivers than white drivers.
In the aftermath of this experience, Williams has been a passionate advocate for government accountability.
About Andy
Andy Williams Jr., a spiritual abolitionist whose mission is to help others defend their freedom by any means necessary. High school dropout, former drug dealer, gang member and ex-offend for freedom. Andy found himself locked up in a mental prison years after his physical release from prison. Until it didn’t.
Born in Aurora, Illinois, Andy attended East Aurora High School before dropping out and taking up residency at the Illinois Department of Corrections. Determined to improve himself, Andy moved on to Lewis University where he obtained a bachelor’s degree in paralegal studies.
After graduating, he worked as an activist during the foreclosure crisis. In 2012, Andy was elected vice president of the DuPage County NAACP. Williams has courageously sought to challenge the status quo throughout the system of legalized slavery.
On July 1, 2021, Andy filed a claim against the United States and 30 states seeking an injunction against the practice of low-pay and unpaid prison labor and a judicial declaration that the exception for prison labor in the Thirteenth Amendment’s prohibition on slavery is unconstitutional. On July 3, 2023, Andy Williams announced his campaign for President with a message of unity, hope and restoring power back to the people
Whether it’s the formerly incarcerated right to bear arms, Fair Housing violations, prisoners right to vote, or the prison-labor exception to the Thirteenth Amendment’s prohibition of slavery, a provision he argues violates not only the antislavery principle but also the First, Fifth, and Eighth Amendments, he will always advocate for what is right.

The Right to Run for Congress
According to the U.S. Constitution, anyone who is at least 35 years old, a natural-born citizen of the United States and a U.S. resident for at least 14 years is eligible to be elected president. Similarly, the U.S. Constitution has set few requirements for serving in Congress. House members must be at least 25 years old, have been a U.S. citizen for at least seven years, and live in the state they represent. Senators have similar requirements, but their residency requirement is extended to nine years, and they must be at least 30 years old.
Hood Church and Walk With a Brother Sister.
The Hood Church was created in 2024 after Andy went to Tra-8’s 50th birthday party and the Kane Street Reunion. Seeing all the brothers and sisters together inspired Andy to create a ministry for the Joshua generation.
