Do you know anybody who doesn't celebrate Thanksgiving?

I heard some random post online that a lot of Native Americans dont? But my fathers family has always celebrated.

I think it's a demeaning holiday but I only do it for my kid so he doesn't feel left out ...I think when he stops caring about this stupid holiday I won't bother either

@Fernie: what can I say ? I guess that's what compassion looks like 🤔

Native Americans in the USA don't have much to be thankful for right now
@Fernie: It really is. Natives already have such little as it is

I know two native americans who aren't overjoyed with the holiday.

@coppercoil: sometimes the dark side of a situation overshadows the light. Whites still think they are superior to everyone who is not white. That "kindness" was evil

@Fernie: *whites still think they are superior to everyone else who isn't white* what a thoughtful and intricately articulated blanket statement. Truly enlightening argument.

@coppercoil: My apologies...you're right...I should have said...and I am usually more aware of my words...that MANY MANY whites still think they are superior to anyone who is NOT white...you watch the news I presume?
