The First Thanksgiving - The TRUE Story Can Finally Be Told
from Scandal Sheet · host Thad Halcli Media, LLC
Every elementary school kid in the US and Canada has been the told how 102 English/Dutch illegal immigrants snuck into America in 1620, under the noses of the Native American Border Patrol - with no immigration papers. Once discovered, the illegal aliens – who we today call ‘Pilgrims’ - were forced to cut a deal with the ruling tribe(s). With our EZ Bake Oven time machine, we have sent our amazing co-host Anuradha back 400 hundred years to the first Thanksgiving celebration. She gets both sides of the story. She interviews Plymouth Colony Governor, William Bradford as well as the Chief of the ruling Wampanoag tribe, Massasoit. She asks the really tough questions: What was on the table for the first Thanksgiving? Why no turkey and no mashed potatoes?? Also, why were the unwelcome and hugely outnumbered European colonists allowed to live in the first place? As a BONUS we add a replay of a 2021 piece where Columbus first comes to America – from the native American perspective. Enjoy! John Hoekstra is featured playing 2 roles. He also composes, preforms and produces our music. You Tube https://youtube.com/channel/UC2Gon6qb9ar07BP0hsNPXdA SoundCloud https://soundcloud.com/user-363005792
