His sons' names are Alphonse and Saifoulaye. His daughters are Deena (who was adopted) and Morgana. Freeman worked as a mechanic in the U.S. Air Force. He has also earned his private pilot's license. In 1997, Freeman, together with Lori McCreary, founded the movie production company Revelations Entertainment.

Freeman has come out publicly against the celebration of Black History Month, saying that "I don't want a black history month. Black history is American history." He says the only way to end racism is to stop talking about it, and he notes that there is "white history month". Freeman says "I am going to stop calling you a white man and I'm going to ask you to stop calling me a black man.
