Perry Ground will first offer an overview of this misunderstood holiday, based on the only primary source documents that chronicle the “First Thanksgiving .” Using a quiz-style format, he will share accurate and culturally appropriate information about the feast, the relationship between the English settlers and Wampanoag and how this story became the holiday we know today. The concept of thanksgiving held by many Native Americans, including the Haudenosaunee (Iroquois), will be emphasized so participants can understand how Native Peoples view Thanksgiving today.
