Decolonizing Thanksgiving

Weru 89.9 Fm Blue Hill

For this Thanksgiving, we offer a radio rebroadcast of Maulian Dana's talk last year at a League of Women Voters - Downeast community conversation held at the Moore Conference Center in Ellsworth. Maulian is the Tribal Ambassador of the Penobscot Nation.

Her talk helps us look at the Thanksgiving holiday through Native American eyes. History has always been written by the winners -- those who feel that they have won the right to portray that history in a light that waters down the consequences of their 'winning'. However, by unpacking the truth we can all reach a place of better understanding and humanity.
