'This isn't picketing and marching through the streets,' says Kanahus Manuel, a Secwepemc land defender. 'We are asserting our inherent, God-given right to our lands. We're defending what's ours, and tiny homes are how we're doing it.'
Manuel first saw them as conduits for social justice during the 2016 resistance efforts against the Dakota Access pipeline at Standing Rock. A group of indigenous women built a small structure on wheels in just one week for her and her four children to reside in while participating in the movement. Its size reminded Manuel of her community's traditional underground pit houses and cedar lodges.
