Spencer Lindquist; Daily Wire "The Minnesota Department of Human Services (DHS) sent out a memo, exclusively obtained by The Daily Wire, warning against the “colonial settler mythological” presentation of Thanksgiving and urging staff members to instead reflect on the plight of Native Americans and celebrate “Truthsgiving.” The statement, sent out today and written by the director of the DHS Office of Indian Policy Angie DeLille, encourages staff to reconsider their usual Thanksgiving celebration and allocate money to “indigenous-owned businesses.” “As we approach this holiday, it’s an important time to reflect on the historical truths surrounding this holiday, particularly the impact it has had on Tribal and urban American Indian communities in Minnesota,”. . .
. . ."The memo is the latest attempt to deconstruct Thanksgiving by labeling it a celebration of oppression, all while attempting to replace it with an alternative holiday.
"In the Los Angeles Unified School District, for example, one lesson prepared by the Office of Human Relations, Diversity & Equity in 2021 taught that Thanksgiving was a celebration of violence against American Indians. One video featured in the lesson plan taught that the “true story of Thanksgiving” is that “after every killing of a whole village, these European settlers celebrated it and then called it Thanksgiving.”
"The lesson plan also posited that instead of Thanksgiving, Americans should recognize a “national day of mourning.” . . .
The liberals have to be depressed; that's who they are. But must they demand we all think like them? TD
