Episode 48: Blood Beneath the Table- The Story of Thanksgiving
from Wilderness Bonescapes Podcast · host Wilderness Bonescapes
Long before Thanksgiving became a day of parades, football, and picture-perfect feasts, it was something far more unsettling. Buried beneath the legend of harmony and shared tables is a truth few dare to look at directly—a truth written in smoke, gunpowder, and the cries of a people whose story was nearly erased. In this episode, we peel back the polished myth and step into the shadows of the 1600s, where alliances were fragile, survival was desperate, and gratitude often came at a brutal cost. This is the real story of Thanksgiving… and it’s nothing like the one we were taught..Wilderness Bonescapes Outdoor Saleshttps://wildernessbonescapes.com/outdoor-stuff-on-sale ..Audiblehttps://www.amazon.com/hz/audible/arya/mlpencoding=UTF8&purchaseType=MTRIAL&linkCode=ll2&tag=wildernessbon-20&linkId=dbb68da43653929fb3e8e59c2c5c70fe&language=enUS&ref_=as_li_ss_tl ..Amazon Music Unlimitedhttps://www.amazon.com/music/unlimited?&linkCode=ll2&tag=wildernessbon-20&linkId=dadc11e13b402d23e3446ad1517a5dd4&language=en_US&ref_=as_li_ss_tl ..Sources:1. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Dtap9oBC8o2. https://nativepartnership.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/The_Real_Story_of_the_First_Thanksgiving.pdf3. https://www.potawatomi.org/blog/2020/11/25/the-true-dark-history-of-thanksgiving/4. https://www.smithsonianmag.com/history/thanksgiving-myth-and-what-we-should-be-teaching-kids-180973655/5. https://today.charleston.edu/2024/11/21/what-is-the-real-story-of-thanksgiving/6.
