<p>In 1783, nearly 3,000 Black Loyalists arrived in Nova Scotia—free in name, but not in fate. Promised land and liberty, they built settlements from bark and memory, while the empire marked their freedom with boundaries. It is a story of what they built, what was taken, and what remains. <a href="/tags/juneteenth/" rel="tag">#Juneteenth</a> <a href="/tags/histodons/" rel="tag">#Histodons</a> <a href="/tags/politics/" rel="tag">#politics</a> <a href="/tags/blackmastodon/" rel="tag">#BlackMastodon</a> <a href="/tags/history/" rel="tag">#history</a> <a href="/tags/photography/" rel="tag">#photography</a><br>1/19<br>Image: Temporary shelters the Black Loyalists lived in on their arrival in Nova Scotia in 1783.
