While you celebrate Thanksgiving today, remember that for many Native Americans, today is a National Day of Mourning. Instead of celebrating Thanksgiving it's a reminder to them of the genocide of millions of their people & the theft of their lands. https://t.co/5tWJwfxzYv

Reminder that the first person to call Thanksgiving a "National Day of Mourning" was an Aquinnah Wampanoag man and it refers to a specific protest. Calling Thanksgiving a "National Day of Mourning" without this context erases decades of Wampanoag activism and resistance!! https://t.co/J1cjcfYgxR

today is a day of mourning, what could have been and what is. mourning the land that weeps and wheezes below me, mourning the ancestors i’ve lost due to greed, mourning the disconnect from all that was once holy to us, in a constant state of mourning. https://t.co/JYQjZjA8xe

Today for a lot of Natives it is The National Day of Mourning. I won't ask you not to celebrate Thankstaking but I do ask that you think about what you are thankful for by acknowledging the price Natives paid for it.

I found this on Instagram, and it’s important to know and care about how Indigenous people feel about the celebration of Thanksgiving. Instead it is a day of Mourning to honor the lives lost during the violent genocide. A thread🧵 https://t.co/HmnsJzHg2J
