Terrifying & True | Dark Realities of the First Thanksgiving: Survival, Plague, and a Fragile Peace

The 1621 harvest feast grew from survival and uneasy diplomacy between the Wampanoag and Plymouth colonists. Terrifying & True follows the epidemic before the Mayflower, the winter of hunger, and negotiations involving Samoset, Squanto, and Massasoit. Corn, trade, and a mutual-defense agreement helped sustain an alliance; later violence at Wessagusset exposed its limits. Explore how a complicated encounter became the First Thanksgiving legend, and whose losses the familiar story leaves out. Sponsor: Cozy Earth.
