The ACLU used to pretend it supported free speech. Then it abandoned free speech and joined the rat pack of radical leftist groups trying to out-radical each other.
That means commemorating Thanksgiving by, according to the ACLU, beginning with a ‘land acknowledgement’.
“Start by acknowledging the land beneath you. All land in the United States is Indigenous land”
Like St. Matthew Island, Alaska. Which belongs to the ice.
“Challenge the false and harmful Thanksgiving origin story.”
Always the best way to start a family get-together.
“Many foods prepared for Thanksgiving are Indigenous foods: squash, corn, beans, pumpkins, and more. When Native people were violently removed from their land by white settlers, many Indigenous food traditions were lost. The forced displacement of Indigenous peoples was (and still is) a deliberate attempt to sever Indigenous people from their traditional ways of living, including food production and ceremony. However, many Indigenous-led movements are actively working to restore ancestral food practices. Native American people around the country have been reclaiming traditional foods, decolonizing their diets, and relearning how to use food as medicine to keep cultural food practices alive for generations to come.”
I didn’t realize Indians invented pumpkins. Or that eating a food gives you perpetual rights over it. I remember when the ACLU at least pretended to be reality based, but now it has to sing the same woo-woo about the magical wisdom of any people that didn’t invent the wheel.
Actively affirm that anti-racism and decolonization work is the responsibility of everyone not only during Thanksgiving, but always.
Actively affirm that the ACLU and its members are forever barred from your Thanksgiving meal.

ACLU should begin by apologizing for all of the victims of communism.
You would think they’d oppose illegal immigrants since they’re yet more non-indigenous peoples.
Or are white Europeans the only objectionable racial group?
I’ll thank God, but if you want to play this game, the “indigenous peoples” stole it from God.
Every inch of populated land on this planet was likely taken by force from someone else.
The next time you hear one of these stupid land acknowledgments and they virtue signal to, for example, the Kwakiutl tribe, stand up and ask, "And who did THEY steal it from?"
Or "Really? So when will you be selling this property and giving the proceeds to the sacred indigenous peoples? Hmmm?"
Keep an eye on British Columbia and Eastern Canada where courts have found for the aboriginals right to land stolen from them by Europeans.
The Indians land claims are getting more and more bizarre by the day (e.g. the whole city of Kamloops).
Yup! We’ve been going through pics and I came across some from Berlin Germany from 1962. Yeah, no Thanksgiving for commies.
These miserable people try to spray their bile on everything.
As usual, we will ignore their nonsense.
I’m Choctaw and I am SO TIRED of this woke nonsense on Columbus Day and Thanksgiving. Myth, legend, or fact, Thanksgiving celebrates Indians and Pilgrams sharing a feast in friendship and comity. Let’s just celebrate that and give thanks to the Lord. It shouldn’t be all that hard.
The turkeys at the ACLU can get stuffed.
The indigenous people had open borders
The Massachusetts Bay Colony immigrants were fed and kept alive through winter by the generosity of the natives
Sounds familiar
Thank you!
Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family!
really sicko
besides, those idolized predecessor occupants were not indiginous, anyway. they are descendants of immigrants, migrators, invaders mostly from northeast Asia.
Shut up.
Just shut up.
The ACLU can demand in one hand and cr*p in the other, and see which fills up first.
The ‘indigenous peoples’ were often fighting and killing each other.
The Indignant People who occupied these Indignant Lands were living in the Stone Age when the Europeans arrived. That’s why they were brought up to date with the rest of the world when the Europeans settled in and let the Indignant People stay here.
Losers hate victory.
If anyone did this at my house they’d be tossed out physically.

This country is filled with miserable people who have nothing in their lives but past perceived grievances to make them feel important. They do this because they have no future.
