We cannot work towards equity without acknowledging and holding accountable the trauma and tragedy of European colonization. "Thanksgiving" is a false, White-washed narrative. Commit to decolonizing your knowledge and spaces by supporting Native sovereignty, listening to activists, and educating yourself. The resources mentioned in this post is only the beginning. Please continue to educate yourself and those around you.
