“Thanksgiving day is a reminder of the genocide of millions of Native people, the theft of Native lands, and the relentless assault on Native culture.”

And all these years I thought THANKSgiving was a day to be THANKFUL to God for what we have.

do the indians still condemn each other for all of the tribal skirmishes in their own past?

Thanksgiving was always meant as a day to give thanks to God for what we have,but that doesn’t seem to do it for some,so they make it into a day that more closely adheres to their ideal as to what they they think it SHOULD be about. THAT usually differs radically from what it was meant to be.
