The navy faculties are utilizing a textbook that instructs lecturers to explain Thanksgiving as a vacation that celebrates a nation based on stolen lands by way of the genocide of native folks.
“These books are blatantly racist towards hundreds of millions of Americans and delegitimize the founding of America itself,” Reps. Elise Stefanik, R-N.Y., and Jim Banks, R-Ind., mentioned in a letter to the Protection Secretary. “Radical woke ideology is rotting out the schools of our service members’ children and instead of addressing this, you have only exacerbated it. Our service members should not have to choose between serving their country or saving their children.”
One textbook truly dismisses the story of the Pilgrims and Indians sharing a meal – suggesting as a substitute that the Pilgrims truly massacred the Indians.
What within the identify of the Wampanoags is the Pentagon doing, of us?

Take Thanksgiving, for example… typically celebrated with a big meal and family gathering… History has been sanitized, and the brutality of colonialism has been erased. This perpetuates the power of White supremacy.”
Oh, shut up and cross the giblet gravy.
