Happy Thanksgiving! Here’s a History Lesson

Happy Thanksgiving to all of our American Germs, and to all of our non-American Germs, Happy Last Thursday of November!
To all of you celebrating this fine, fattening holiday, we hope your day is full of turkey, mashed potatoes, and several extra helpings of thankfulness. Once you’ve entered the post-feast, food-induced coma (i.e. passed out on the couch), take a second to watch this Crash Course history lesson to learn the reality behind the origins of Thanksgiving.
Crash Course History videos are fast-paced and fun, so even those who hate history class can learn something from it. Grab some popcorn (if you still have room) and settle in to learn about your favorite holiday’s origins. Chances are whatever you were taught is wrong.
‘Murica!
