Mudbound Quote

Henry McAllan: [narrating]My great-great-granddaddy and his slaves built the farm that I grew up on. One time my granddaddy told me to go out, grab a handful of dirt from the yard and bring it in. He said, What are you holdin', son? And I said, Dirt. That's right. Now give it to me. So I did, and he says, Now what's this I've got in my hand? Dirt, I says. No, boy, this is land that I've gotten. Do you know why? Because I own it. Because it's mine. And one day, it'll be yours.
