The Chattel House: A Symbol of Freedom and Belonging
Memory Built in Wood. The belongings home became a kind of portable memory. Every board brought a story: a birth, a quarrel, a guarantee, a cyclone made it through, a prayer whispered through floorboards, a pot singing on a coal stove. Households broadened and contracted, rooms included and removed, house moving shape the way identity shifts through generations.
" This is why we never ever lose we humour," the old man stated. "An individuals who can lift they whole house and move on? You can't break them. You can just teach them different ways to stand."
Your home was not just shelter.
It was testament.
A statement sculpted in pine and mahogany: We will not be trapped again.
