Happy Thanksgiving, but what is the real History of Thanksgivings

Thanksgiving is a time for being thankful and spending time with family and eating a meal mainly of dishes indigenous to the Americas, Turkey, Corn, Potatoes, Cranberry etc… it is a wonderful time. I feel sorry for the men in snowy trenches in Ukraine and Russia, while others in America can feast. Keir Starmer and Trump would not last a day.

Thanksgiving is great now, but it didn’t start that way. It started as a celebration of the mystic river massacre.

The video above is a write up I did which has since been lost in all my deletions form the internet. It is mostly on early American History in Carolina, Massachusetts and Virginia. Yes Carolina, because there was no North and South until 1729

If you like that type of thing enjoy.
