[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Seems so gross to me to celebrate the attack on indigenous cultures and independence, but Americans seem to love that sh$t.[/quote] It is a harvest feast. It is not the same as the Pilgrims feast, which would have had to be much earlier in Massachusetts, although that is the lore. Thanksgiving was technically established in 1941.[/quote] All the pictures books my kids read say it was Abraham Lincoln during the Civil War at the behest (after a decades long campaign) of Sarah Josepha Hale? And anyone who enjoys stories of strong women should love Hale, who wanted the holiday simply as a time for Americans to get together and celebrate a harvest feast, as mentioned above.[/quote]
