The First Thanksgiving (The Dark History Behind the Celebration) | Eventful Insights

Thanksgiving is often seen as a time for gratitude, family, and feasting, but its origins tell a more complex and somber story. This video delves into the history of the holiday, from its beginnings in 1621 when Pilgrims and the Wampanoag shared a meal amidst hardship, to the darker chapters of land displacement and violence that followed, including events like the Pequot Massacre. Over time, Thanksgiving evolved, shedding its troubled past to become a national celebration under Abraham Lincoln and growing into the modern traditions of turkey feasts, parades, football, and even Black Friday shopping. While Thanksgiving remains a cherished holiday, the video encourages viewers to reflect on its history, acknowledge its impact on Indigenous peoples, and consider making the holiday more sustainable and inclusive in the present day.
