I'd like to bring up my opinion on turkey though. I don't know why it's the symbol food for the holiday. It's a very dry meat.
Now, sweet potatoes, that I can enjoy.

Aw yeah.
We're also having a Thanksgiving potluck in my Humanities class today. I'm bringing a huge spinach salad, prepared by my mother (what can I say? She rocks at things like this). Of course, there's gonna be a shitload of other food, too. I'm SO gonna pig out. C:

It is to mark the day the new Americans made peace with the native Americans and had dinner with them (There was turkey at that dinner as well)
Anyway I think that's the story (I'm not American so I don't know too much)

Uh... they killed them by shooting them where they were walking around.
Also Thanksgiving (like most holidays) is based on a mythical interpretation of actual events, as well as a combining them with older, less organized traditions (dating back to the settlers' ancestors in Europe). Harvest festivals and giving thanks for good crops have been around for pretty much all of history. The actual making it a national holiday and the tradition of celebrating it every year on the last Thursday of November was done for the first time by Abraham Lincoln in 1863.

All because I don't live in America and I'm not American and so therefore us Britons don't usually celebrate it.

I'm a Brit but I might celebrate it by eating some vegetables or something. Might wear my stars and stripes trainers too *fnar*

This and more BUT I think some holidays need to be viewed from a different point of view and new way of thinking, not so much the true background of a festival but what it means now. Of course this might be like Christmas to me, a good time to buy stuff and get drunk but I would like to think some people can use Thanksgiving as a way to make amends. To give true thanks to people in America (and the world), people in their lives and be more open minded about diversity because frankly USA IS an immigrant country.
This is not to say the sins of the father should be forgot but instead faced, dead in the eyes so it does not happen again and that the lesson is learned. Maybe this is idealistic of me haha
Now Football fever I have no positive new way to think of that, it is just crazy. I am close minded regardless mindless repetition of stereotypes and archetypal behavior.
But yeah, give thanks to what you have, remember those which suffered and open your arms to difference. Though I actually do not know when Thanksgiving was or is.
