“Going tiny” implies that the person who is moving into a tiny house is doing so to escape their previous life of excess: They are coming from one place and going to another. This has made it, by definition, a middle-class movement, one that eschews identification with people who have lived in “tiny” homes for decades — whether that “tiny” home is a mobile home, an RV, or just a really small apartment. And so the tiny house movement has an inherent privilege built in: Going tiny is a choice. If you’re coming from a more abundant place, in which you could live in a 2,000-square-foot house but you choose to live in 200 square feet, then you can be part of the community. If not, well, you’re just poor.“

”“It is a very whitewashed movement,” said Pearson, whose tiny house build was the subject of a September episode of HGTV’s Tiny House, Big Living. Along with two other women, Pearson started a website and Facebook group called Tiny House Trailblazers for people of color who were interested in tiny living. “I started a public Facebook page because I felt like, I don’t see anybody out here who looks like me.” Pearson said that as she was gathering information about her own build, which started in January 2015, she encountered resistance from suppliers and builders, one of whom went so far as to tell her that “if I had a white face representing my project, I’d probably get more response.”
