This Thanksgiving let’s thank the Dutch, who gave refuge to the Pilgrims before they came to America, and who transmitted their own spirit of liberty to America.
Members of Native American tribes from around New England are gathering in the seaside town where the Pilgrims settled not to give thanks, but to mourn Indigenous people worldwide who've suffered centuries of racism and mistreatment.
The hymn “We Gather Together” has a later line that observes, “So from the beginning, the fight we were winning, Thou, Lord, wast at our side, all glory be Thine.” Happy Thanksgiving!
