And the genocide continues all over the world. I fear that one day the world will consist of only the winning side.
We celebrate friends and family, not the supposed Thanksgiving day. We make a dinner celebrating life and rememberance of the Native Americans. I do not like the LIE we were told to believe. 😢 sick and sad. Thank you for all the other cultures you've explained too
32:00 Anni are you okay? Are you okay Anni?
Thank you for sharing the truth about how ancient cultures and beliefs celebrate the true meaning. Unlike America celebrates the genocide of a culture, and bringing diseases and ramroding the false God of Christianity. We need too put an end to this .Bring back the old ways .
We don't celebrate thanksgiving here in Britain but the holiday has always intrigued me. I always knew it was a story that was a bit ambiguous. It's nice to hear about the real history of the celebration, well.. the history from all different cultures. I especially liked hearing about Ireland's thanksgiving traditions.
I carry a copy of the U.S. Constitution in my purse. In that little booklet, it states George Washington, yes, the President created the November holiday to mark the celebration of our great Constitution, a first of its kind. This video is a LIE!!!
A lot of interesting information there, some of it new to me. I'm not American, but I've known the true origin of their thanksgiving for a while. I could never understood why so many people happily celebrated a holiday with such a dodgy beginning. I suppose most people only know the romanticised version. Interesting. 👍
Thanksgiving and Valentine's Day only two holidays I don't care about
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I’m 49 seconds in, the British accent on the narration though? I hate AI because it has a way of coming across as tone deaf and too much, but the imaging is cool and story telling is (over the top. These things can be written by a romance novelist for the same effect
1789: The first Federal Congress asked President Washington to recommend a day of thanks. He responded by issuing a proclamation for a national "Day of Publick Thanksgivin" on November 26, 1789, in honor of the Constitution. This was not an annual holiday, and subsequent presidents issued similar proclamations on different dates.
This video is full of misinformation, is anti-American and anti-white and overly commends other ethnic groups' day of thanks as superior and more spiritual…very biased. And AI videos are lazy…one of the pilgrim women in a dress looks like a man with a beard, give me a break ..
I finally got a chance to watch this video when it showed up in my YouTube feed. I really like it!!!
