The Real Story of the First Thanksgiving

On this episode of Our American Stories, Thanksgiving is the only American holiday that has remained relatively innocent—it’s not something we've been able to commercialize. But something is happening here more than feasting, family, and football. Robert Tracy McKenzie, professor of history at Wheaton College and author of The First Thanksgiving, tells the story of this quintessentially American holiday.
