According to the dictionary, Chattel is a noun, indicating in general use a personal possession. In law, Chattel means an item of property other than real estate.
So you can see why this term, this concept, this past practice, has nothing to do with us. We are not now, nor have we ever been, the personal possession of anyone else.
This concept was an artificial construct, a nonexistent circumstance imposed on our ancestors as if it were fact, but it was never fact. We must embrace the reality that this non-reality was imposed upon us, and we suffer today under the weight of its residue.
it is long past time that we cremate the concept of chattel slavery. We must erase every vestige of this lie from our psyche and move forward in health.
Join us on the shore of the Atlantic Ocean on Saturday, August 20, 2022, as we lay this elusive enemy, this artificial construct, to rest. We'll be decent, and give it a full homegoing service.
Walk with us as we step into a new self awareness and a life free of this atrocity that afflicted our ancestors.
