À propos de cet audio

Episode One examines how Thanksgiving became America's foundational myth. We journey back to sixteen twenty-one Plymouth, exploring the real story behind that first harvest feast between Pilgrims and Wampanoag people. The episode reveals how Sarah Josepha Hale and Abraham Lincoln transformed a single meal into a national holiday during the Civil War, creating a unifying origin story that erased centuries of violence and broken treaties. We investigate how the sanitized Pilgrim narrative served political purposes, why Indigenous peoples observe a National Day of Mourning on Thanksgiving, and what happens when a country builds its identity on mythmaking rather than truth. It's the story behind the story we've been told since childhood.
