Is Thanksgiving a day to be thankful for friends and family, or is it a celebration of the first harvest between the pilgrims and the North American Indigenous People? There have been some protests and complaints about the history of Thanksgiving as it is taught in schools, due to the way it is presented as a union of two cultures who were friends, when history has proven otherwise. If Thanksgiving was built on the backbone of Indigenous People, should we get rid of Thanksgiving entirely and create a new holiday just for giving thanks and having a feast with family and friends to better honor and be respectful towards the people who originally lived here? Tune into this special Thanksgiving episode of the ControCast to find out!
