Introduction ITNJ’S NEW-EARTH LAW ACADEMY T he purpose behind the New Earth Law Academy (NELA) is to help people all over the world increase their comprehension and literacy in matters of Law. It stands as a response to the compartmentalization and systemic obfuscation of proper understanding of Law throughout the “civilized” world at the behest of unscrupulous controlling interests. In matters of pure common sense, it can be said that as long as the people do not know how their systems of governance truly work – not in theory, but in reality – then it is unlikely that they can effectively protest when confronted with the abrogation of their rights by institutional sanction. Therefore, when taken together with the International Tribunal for Natural Justice (ITNJ), the educational material provided by the NELA will prove to be a formidable resource for people all over the world to proceed in competence and honor when navigating the precarious task of restoring law whenever and wherever it has been usurped or left to atrophy. On the surface, learning about the law can appear to be a dry and arduous task, yet you will inevitably discover – if you diligently study and put the pieces together – that the story of how we came to this critical moment in history is moving, fascinating and powerful. We are all implicated in this story, and with due effort we can perform significant roles within it in full consciousness. If enough of us take responsibility for our circumstances, and if we extend ourselves in a spirit of mutual support to our neighbors, friends, and family in the recognition that we are all heirs and custodians of this world we share, then we will invariably discover that we collectively have the power to end corruption and hold entrenched power to account. Time and time again, tyrants throughout history have fallen thanks to the efforts of living men and women who steadfastly obeyed their Conscience, and who stood in honor and with competence. So, what makes the NELA different from other law schools? Why can’t we sit back and trust that the “specialists” and “experts” have everything under control? Is it really necessary for the “average” person (assuming such a thing exists) to become informed? Is it realistic for the “average” person to comprehend what is going on? And, most importantly, what is Natural Justice? To begin… The NELA is an online learning community that is independent of the traditional university system. It may come as a shock for many to discover that the Law is not supposed to be made inaccessible or obscure from those who it purports to serve. And yet, the costs in terms of both money and time for going to law school almost anywhere in the world tend to be astronomical. Furthermore, the subject of law is steeped in arcane language and obscure protocol to such an extent that many judiciaries can effectively do whatever they please with impunity. Indeed, the study of law has become so superficially cumbersome that it would seem preposterous to most that anyone outside of mainstream academia could feasibly understand what really goes on in a courtroom. However, when we unpack the research that many volunteers for the NELA have laid out for us all to see, TheSovereignVoice.Org
