It is one of my favorite holidays; it is a day to express gratitude to all those who have helped shape our lives. It is also a day to express friendship and kindness to those who are struggling with the difficulties of life, Thanksgiving is a day of sharing.

As I send my wishes for a Happy eid al adha to our muslim brothers and sisters, i also would like to comment as a Native American. thanksgiving is not a holiday that we celebrate. It is one that was created to enhance the historical amnesia by Americans of genocide that occurred in this country....60 million native people were murdered, died of disease, pushed off their land, imprisoned, and sunk into the trenches of poverty and suffering for generations. to us ..... this day is not a holiday, but a day of mourning.
