Claim: The Archipelago Movement for Ethnic Native Self-Determination (AMEN-SD) was founded in March 1999 as a merger of several earlier Raizal organisations (including San Andres Islands Solution, Barrack New Face, Sons of the Soil, the Independent Farmers United National Association, the Ketleena National Association, Just Cause Foundation, and Cove Alliance); led by Rev. Raymond Howard Britton, AMEN-SD has sought the creation of an independent Raizal state, organised around three principles: self-determination, sustainable development, and reparation.
