It’s tough, but as long as the word gets out there, the youth will at least know how the country was actually formed. That this nation owes natives acknowledgement of de population of those people. Meanwhile as a black American person, I believe we’re just enjoying day to take a break. Cañada even acknowledges indigenous people yet I wonder if they (Canadians) participate in Thanksgiving for marketing purposes. Also, as Mr. Ossy Davis said, always due to the right thing.

Thanksgiving is a precolonial tradition, native people have always celebrated harvest and given thanks to the earth for nourishing our bodies and our communities. I think a shift in focus from settler fanfiction invented to whitewash a shameful history to historical fact and celebrating as natives celebrate by honoring the earth, honoring ancestors and passing along their teachings to the next generation who this land belongs to, is a positive way to celebrate and to reclaim and cleanse a tradition tainted by colonialism and white supremacy.
