You missed out on the tiny part where the natives were slaughtered, but yea that’s not important right

Just gonna skip over the part where the pilgrims poisoned the Wapanoag to death? Happy Thanksgiving! Here's some whitewash!

I'm not American and even I know that's not what happened.

It's annoying when I'm reading something and your play card pops up and blocks the letters. Please keep it in mind next time, thank you.

Really National Geographic? I’m so disappointed 😔

So if National Geographic isn't down to do justice ima start by saying thank you Chukchansi, Big Sandy, Tachi, Choinumni tribes to name a few for allowing us on your land because this was your land to start with. We also honor all those Native Americans who we lost during genocide in the 1600's. You will always be remembered. Comment any other tribes you would like honor

Remember the story about the first Thanksgiving. The Indians were marching, carrying torches, chanting "You will not replace us" "You will not replace us". The lead Pilgrim went over to the Indians and said "Relax Anyone want a turkey leg". Wonder whatever happened to those Indians?
