This is an unfortunate perpetuation of pseudo-history, painted to make everything bright and rosy, without including the facts.

Thanksgiving was to be a celebration created by the Pilgrims in order to set the 1st peoples of America the American Indians "strait". All it realy was, was a macacre the 1st slaughter of the Peoples Called the Red one by the Whites.
So before celebrating Thanksgiving, think of the real story behind it! Death to a estimate 400 Indiginious peoples.
