Today, a new movement is gaining momentum in the Eastern United States. First Peoples are rehoming themselves to their native regions. The descendants of enslaved people are re-establishing sustaining connections to land and agriculture: connections long severed by land and labor theft. Together, they cooperate with diverse stakeholders, creating new food and land systems and new lives. Sharing the stories of contemporary Black and Indigenous land sharers has created opportunities for broader communities to gain footholds in these paradigms. In this thesis, I tell the story of the creation of the Quarter Acre for the People project and reflect on and interpret its meaning. Filling a gap in community participatory action research that centers diverse perspectives and assemblage methods, this approach brings together disparate but values-aligned parties informing humanities-engaged social science research.
