RE: Happy save people from starvation day
Howdy sir ganjafarmer! what is the version of the indigenous people? Someone ought to tell that story. But it was different for different tribes was it not?

The main story of the East Coast Indian Indians and Thanksgiving is something that you should definitely write about.
And that definitely was passed around and is something that native cultures really despise hearing as it is a extremely whitewashed version of what really happened.
The first Thanksgiving was more about tears and pain then it was a celebration.
Indians have a saying if you teach a man how to grow corn he will come back raise your village to the ground enslave your women and kids and kill all the men
wow that's very sobering sir ganjafarmer....where do you find the real story of how it went down?
Oh there's quite a few sources in documents of what really happened back then which happens to differ quite a bit from the official accounts we feed the children in school.
But then again the massacre at Wounded Knee in the 1800's wasn't really covered nor is the bounties for not only native men but also women and kids.
Americans did some pretty horrific things which of course didn't make any friends and helped to fuel the cycle of violence to even more Heights or Low.
The story on the North American continent is definitely not a very good one
yes sir exactly. The country was basically founded on murder, lies, genocide and broken treaties. It's amazing any of the indigenous people survived at all.
