Simon Moya-Smith, Thank you. I am about 1/2 Cherokee-Choctaw, Great answer, thruthful answer. Most of the Native history is still so biased in the telling. There is more media out these days to help educat,e by Natives. I live in Oklahoma and this is where my Fathers people are from. I do like to Gooble till I Wobble on those holidays!

B.J. Magante representing the La Jolla Band of Luiseno Indians straight of of Southern California here. I just wanted to say that I 100% agree with you brother.

Iam Irish cherokee Native American Indian & understand what you are saying.... Though I remember in school we learned(years ago) that Thanksgiving was about both parties getting together & giving thanks for what they all had that God had blessed them all with pleanty of food & that they all were still alive that God had His hand on them... because it was some very harsh winters that they went through & because of it a lot of people died did not make it. It was a time Thanksgiving was a time to thank God for all they had & bring them through the harsh winter alive a time of giving thanks... so that is how my family & I do.
