Black People : Thanks 4 (for) getting: The Origin of Thanksgiving

[Fine1952]

"...While few would suggest that Thanksgiving should become the occasion for a yearly guilt trip, we would do well to remember the price the first Americans paid for European expansion into their territories as we sit around the bountiful table with our family and friends. Only by openly acknowledging the sins of our collective past, is it possible to proceed toward a future that all Americans can feel thankful for..."

Great thread sista FINE!


If we can stop referring to people native to this land we occupy as "indians and native
americans" that would go a long way in correcting the wrongs of the past IMHO.

If sports team stop using oppressed people as mascots, yes that would help
us move towards the future.

ALL DOGMAS, MYTHS, and SUPERSTITIONS MUST DIE!!!!

HI!!!

The evidence clearly shows that caucasian-looking native/indian americans were never the original indigenous peoples of the Americas....AFRICANS WERE.

Although the minds of the masses are truly calcified -- your thoughts on biased

• dogmas
• doctrines
• myths
• superstitions
• and mores

are absolutely correct!
