History of thankgiving

What we are taught:

• A shared meal of peace between Native Americans and colonizers
• Created to thank Indigineous people for teaching us to harvest

A more accurate history:

• Violence by colonizers towards indigineous peoples

• Created by Abraham Lincoln to "unite" Americans post civil-war

How we tell history matters!
